Who do you bank with? I have a NatWest Gold account (don't do them anymore) and their free travel insurance covers motorbikes unlike some.

That looks like car oil. I wouldn't use it as it probably has friction modifiers in which don't do bike clutches any favours.

The angle of the dangle is equal to the heat of the meat in the midday sun.

I used to find when riding my Pan European which was red and didn't have any disco lights that the traffic used to part to allow me through a lot more than when riding anything else.
No flash gear on either, black lid, black jacket and orange & white gloves. Exactly the same gear as I wear on other bikes. 4423

You do need a vest for if you break down on the motorway. You don't need to wear it though when riding. That law was dropped as well.

I believe the breath kit law has been dropped now.
Its a requirement to carry a spare bulb kit in France too so you can change the bulb at the roadside if one blows. Have you ever tried changing the headlight bulb on a 2002 Laguna? Remove both front wheels, remove wheel arch liners, remove front bumper and then, remove headlight to access the bulb. 4425

Are you mad?
On a bike I have never used them. Come to that, I have never used them on the car or van either. |
