General / Re: Cancel insurance question

« on: 15 May 2014, 11:17:23 pm »

When I changed my bike the insurance company put my policy on hold for maximum 49 days ? They said it would be better than me cancelling it then taking out a new policy for my new bike ? Cost me £25 I think for changing the bike details, but my policy now runs out 5 weeks later than original date...

Can anyone recommend any bike clothing / helmet shops in the Glasgow or Central Scotland area ?

I've got a nexx xr2 carbon. Only had it a month or so, but it's excellent. The weight is so light, and the peripheral vision is colossal.

The double d rings get on my tits though. I posted a short review of it here:

I suppose it depends what you class as cheap?

Thanks for that info, I use a shoei just now and a few other that I've bought a spares ? But I just can't get something that feels right ? If you know what I mean !!

Going to buy a new lid this weekend and I was wondering what other folk use ? Looking for something reasonably priced and obviously safe ? Full face large or xl size ?

Claim pension credits if you can, then enjoy your last few years

That's about the same as I paid about 6months ago ? Could probably have got it a wee bit cheaper but I decided that the guys I done my cbt with where a much safer bet than going with a company I didn't know just to try and save a couple of quid ? Would say it worked out in my favour overall as I passed mod 1+2 1st time

General / Re: What Fazer did you spot today?

« on: 26 February 2014, 08:30:02 pm »

Seen a nice blue Fazer on the Ellon bypass about 8.30 this morning and then 20 minutes later an older red one parked in the wee village of Stirling just outside Peterhead ?

Thanks for the replies, I did throw the cover over it last night, but I've been out this morning and gave it a quick dry off with some towels then covered it up again ?

A question for some of you more experienced bikers on here ? The weather as you all know has been a bit miserable this week. As I've been away working in my truck Monday to Friday the bike was locked up in our factory all nice and dry. But I had to ride home across Glasgow tonight in the rain (about 20 minutes) now being a bit of a newbie I was just wondering what others would do when you got home ? I don't have a shed or garage for storage and the bike usually lives on my driveway at home.
Would you cover the bike up when it's wet or just leave it outside in the rain as it's already soaked ? ?

Thanks m8,
I see your in Dumbarton that's only about 20 min away from me ? Been looking through the forum it looks pretty good with plenty of advice and information for bike novices like me
