Re: Africa Twin for road riding only - opinions?

All my mates that came from sports bikes (age related change of style :D ) went for either a Ducati or KTM with a 19” front wheel - they only ride on the road. They are all very happy with their choices. I completely agree. Personally (ay say personally ) the 21" front wheel is horrible on the...

Re: Visor product recommendations

I use both Bob Heath stuff and RainX. The Bob Heath stuff works for a day or so then I find it tends to look like the visor is melting. I've also used the washing up liquid method which is ok but a faff to prepare. I've found the best solution is to use a plastic cleaner/antistatic spray and give it...

Re: EBC clutches - AVOID

So I agree and have changed the header as ive slowly calmed down and have to say the customer service from EBC has been exceptional, but not from the supplier who i purchased the clutch from.... Interesting. How did you contact EBC directly? I've had some "V" brake disks that were warped ...

Re: A photo you took, today

Took the eMTB out to the Peak District on Saturday. Turned off the Jacobs Ladder path and headed up to the Trig point on the Penine Path at Kinder Scout. Kinder ride looking back.jpg Kinder Trig point.jpg There's no way you can ride it, too many rocks, and you probably shouldn't anyway. So had to pu...

Re: SURVEY

Would it be cynical to wonder if all they're doing with surveys like this is collecting the data to prove people interested in anything motorcycle related are a comparativly small a group, so don't justify any investment!
