Re: Aylesbury to the Italian Dolomites

Awesome (thumbs) Have you got the route on Google maps? It was a 'Horizon Motorcycle Tours' route, they supplied the .gpx files but we had a bit of trouble putting them into the Sat Navs (as always) so we mostly followed their two guides both of who were super quick riders on their GS's (thumbs). T...

Re: Aylesbury to the Italian Dolomites

...it's the old racing circuit just outside Reims...I never knew it was there and it was quite 'atmospheric' to visit (thumbs) .

Aylesbury to the Italian Dolomites

Re: Ebike Still Down

It's been down for renewals for nearly a year :( . I went to renew in September 2014 and it was down. I then got a letter a month later to say 'sorry your leaving us'... :silly:

Re: MOT querie?

You don't need any documents to get a new MOT, it's all done online at the MOT station. You do need a 'pre-booked' appointment if you want to be covered by your insurance when you ride the bike there if the current MOT has already expired.

Re: ktm 640 adventure or ktm 690 enduro

Re: XR400 Engine blip! Advice please??

I'm no mechanic but it sounds like one of the jets may have a slight blockage?
Or...the fuel pipe from the new tank to the carb has a 'kink' in it?

Re: Scum Rob Rocket Centre

I think we only hear about the things that go wrong with police. I've had my share of run'ins with traffic plod :( but as I've said before two of my mates are in the CID and my neighbours are both in the Met. Some of the stories they have told make me wince...kids left alone for days in shite hole f...

Re: Eurotunnel entrance/exit at Calais, any aggro on a bike?
