The Accident
So, I was going to KFC to get some dinner for me and Mrs B. The first thing I knew about it was; I was driving along the road and heard a high revving engine on my left (UK so illegal overtake). I saw a white Golf (Rabbit in U.S.?) trying to pass me, but we were coming up to some parked cars and the...

Re: Idle Stop
never had a problem with the start/stop feature
I think it's less about saving fuel and more about those moments when everyone stopped at the lights has idle-start, cars and bikes. There's a moment of unexpected quiet in your day it's real nice

Re: PCX vs Piaggio Medley review, now on SLUK
Can I just say, I think the UK graded system is not perfect but a pretty decent attempt at sense. At the age of 42 I decided to take to two wheels. I had never been on a bike before and if I got a license that let me ride a Fireblade or Hyabusa I would probably be another road traffic statistic. Jus...

Re: screwed in bar end removal?
tbh, those do look pretty cool, riding in winter is beautiful but damn cold. heated grips are good and all but the biting wind on the front of your gloves is hard to take after a while I think I/you may have just solved my family's "what do we buy the idiot for christmas ?" conundrum :lol:
