Re: Why did you sell your last bike?

Sold my 916 for 3k as I wanted a xt660z

Sold my 450 exc rfs cos I bought a 250xc to go faster.

Sold my xr600 before that cos I bought the 450 to race.

Bloody regret selling all of them cos they've all gone up in value, some a lot more than others. If I had the room I'd never sell a bike again.

Re: CRF Shock Knock

Find a new mechanic. Hard to diagnose when we can't see it but shock should not move side to side.

Re: ULEZ Expansion to M25 August 2023

Almost every day.... happened tonight infact, cars have to swing/swerve sharply across the crossed hatched area to avoid the slip roads on M25. Despite it showing in 3 or 4 meter high overhead signs that the left lane is for M40 only. Last minute it's 'oh shit' 🙄🙄🙄

Re: ULEZ Expansion to M25 August 2023

Just read the above and it reminds me of the M4 just by Swansea. It's reduced to 50mph "to help with air pollution" and yes there are signs up to tell you this. ....... BUT ITS RIGHT BY THE STEEL WORKS AT PORT TALBOT!? Stell works are always belching out fumes that stink.
