Just up the road from me. I know a few lads who buy from there and I generally go there for parts.

When I changed to a 1000 rear caliper and braided lines I locked the rear a couple of times, once quite scarily.
As a partial solution I adjusted the brake pedal to a lower position so it's still there if needed but would need a
good press to come on fully. Worked for me so far.
As others have said, roadcraft is the key, but there's always some t**t who will, do something totally unexpected,
usually right in front of you.

I've got Delkevic pipes and can, bought seperately. Had them a few years but don't remember the pipes in three pieces, and I certainly don't have the springs,
so maybe they've changed the design. No problems with fitting and are lasting well.

I've got a few chores to do but could be ready for about 11. Meet at Squires or as it seems it's just us two you could come to call for me to play out. :D

George McDonald Fraser - The Flashman Papers. Twelve books in total. Brilliant and informative if you read all the historical notes.

I've got Delcevic stainless downpipes and can, and a radiator. No problems with any of them, apart from the baffle fell out
of the can somewhere. Quality good in my opinion. At the time, it was that radiator or a genuine one, massive price difference
as you can imagine.

inflates the cheek pads??
 
Ha ha, yeah, that does read a bit weird. The helmet inflates around your face to give a snug fit.
Like I say, not used that feature yet as it's a good fit anyway but as the helmet gets looser with age I might
give it a pump or two.  :eek

I got a Scorpion helmet last year. Tried loads on but I must have a funny shaped head or something.
The Scorpion is super comfy but is a bit noisy. Comes with pinlock and has a drop down sun visor which I
honestly don't think I would buy another helmet without now. Also, has a kind of pump which inflates the
cheek pads for a better fit. Don't use it but will come in useful as the helmet gets older and looser.

Tried to attach a picture of mine but didn't work for some reason. Had kind of a single seat with a storage compartment behind.

Honda CB50 bought from a mate at work. 31mph on the flat on a good day, but had the speedo off the clock down a 1 in 4 hill one time. Sign of things to come, RD250 followed  :) .

Just watched it last night. Was there any part of the original plane re-used? Seemed to be a new build with the old plane used for reference.
Still enjoyed it though. I'm an engineer by trade and can appreciate that level of skill.

If you're using it make sure you use the correct stuff. Once had a bottle of industrial Loctite 'High Strength Retainer' spill in my toolbox.
Glued some spanners to the base and had to get them off with a hammer and chisel!!!!

I've got some you can borrow, you know where I live! I'm busy the next couple of weekends though, then on holiday.
Could give you a hand after that though if you need it.

I'm going up there next weekend with 3 other guys from work. Staying in Keswick youth hostel. They know the walks better than me so I'm a bit at their mercy. I know we're doing Catbells on Sat, and the whole walk will be about 8 hours! I've been up Scafell Pike before though and done the Yorkshire 3 peaks, which I'd like to repeat one day.

Wasn't there one in one of the Die Hard films? The one with Samuel L Jackson in.
