This really niggles me. I feel for you, I got caught doing 76 in a 40 on a dual carraigeway in 1999 (Plymouth embankment) and felt almost victimised. The only advise I can offer is exactly what the others have said, turn up early, well presented and with a good brief. I was facing a ban but by plead...

I have been looking at buying a BEC (bike engined car) for some time, have tried...

Hi all, I took an 07 CBR6RR for a test ride and was thoroughly disappointed. In my opinion a real disappointment as I had always liked the bike and had high expectations of it. Since I had a few hours spare this afternoon and the weather was good I took the SV to the local Honda garage to test ride...

with a nil budget how do you plan on getting tools,work benches,lifts,tyre machine etc as you'll need all of those things to convert people over otherwise its just as easy to take your bike to jp motorworks/vlm/bike tech services etc ? your idea sounds great in principle but im not sure that withou...

Just found this on another site and love it: 'Save a mouse - Eat a pussy'

Don't seem to see the logos so much nowadays;

I've had in years gone by: 'Bye Bye GTi' and also 'Smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfast'

I remember pulling up behind an old blade that just had 'spit or swallow?' which made me laugh.

Another accident on the 'Torpoint twisties' last night has resulted in a fatality. Sad news, I am sure somebody from this site will know who it is but at the moment no names have been released. Thoughts to his family :( More details: http://www.thisisplymouth.co.uk/displayNode.jsp?nodeId=181429&...

Right have booked some test rides for tomorrow with bridge. GSXR 750, ZX-6R and Mike you'll like this one. Daytona 675. They don't have an R6 there that I can try. Reason for the post is does anyone no of any bad things about any of these bikes such as high Depreciation or high insurance. Thanks in...

To be honest I have absolutely no idea what it is worth, I figured on about £500??

I paid £2k for it and have ridden it 7 times, I have also spent more than £1k on it since owning.

How about a 1999 SRAD GSXR600 for very little money???? It used to be my track bike but has sat gathering dust for 2 years in my garage unused, I was planning on tidying it up and getting rid of it last year but with business commitments it just didn't happen. She was converted to a race bike at les...

I saw it being loaded into the back of a van at around 6pm on the way home last night.

The guy pushing it was wearing a leather jacket so I assumed he was the rider and OK.

If you want the view of an 'outsider' I actively post on other forums and regularly read through this one. One of the reasons I do not spend more time on this site is that it does appear to be over moderated. I read simon's posting on two other large international forums and nobody appeared to be bo...
