Re: Nicer than a Norden?
Hmmmmm not convinced, where do you put your panniers. Would make the bike about 2m wide with those rear tanks as well. Probably going to weigh 200kg+++ as well. I ride a KTM 690 Enduro. Lovely bike, powerful, light, good range as standard. Could do with a better seat, thoough. I think Ducati would ...

Re: Nicer than a Norden?
Couldn't get past 3 minutes because of the appalling robot voice-over. Ducaahti... That Stevie Wonder joke dropped like a stone didn't it? But as to the bike, yep looks interesting. Four fuel fillers/tanks? As usual weight will be the main question, but looks like a good Maroc bike (well until you g...

Re: Go Big and Ride Small
Good pics. My dad had a Gazelle.
But it kept eating all the hay so he traded it in for a car....

Re: Thinking of travelling to or through France?
Hope that makes some kind of sense... It does, thanks. Thanks too for picking up on my schoolboy error, like a true principal. :-) I promise that never occurred to me Simon. Complete coincidence. Although I have a love of the English language, I write all the time, and I do admit to a somewhat peda...

Re: Thinking of travelling to or through France?
How does the points system work there in France, Dave? Is it the same sort of principal as the UK? Yep, same principle, except that the points are subtracted rather than added ! So you start with 12 points and some of them get taken away every time you're naughty over a certain threshold of... naug...

Re: Thinking of travelling to or through France?
Crikey...that was a large wedge to pay out! :shock: When we got the speeding fine in the post from Luxembourg there was the usual online payment or appeal process to go through but the strange thing was that you can only ask for evidence of the offence (i.e. a photo or proof of camera calibration) ...

Re: Thinking of travelling to or through France?
I think it was an agreement between France and the UK that France could access the UK DVLA database if a UK registered vehicle got flashed by a speed camera BUT the UK could not access the French database if it was vica versa...i.e. a French registered vehicle flashed in the UK...a bizarre arrangem...

Re: Thinking of travelling to or through France?
Dunno the answer to that Scott. Did the DVLA and Nantes ever really get their ducks in a row over this? Not sure. I don't know any brits who got flashed in France and then punished back at home in the UK, but that certainly doesn't mean it didn't happen. I'm not sure there was ever an EU wide recipr...
