so I pull up and begin to fuel up, I'm sat on the bike as usual and then the lad behind the counter gets on the mike, gestures and says something I can't decipher coz of my ear plugs. I start to think that he's saying I need to move pumps and I look at the pump which has stopped delivering at £11.36. and won't deliver any more fuel :\

I ride the bike around to the next pump and he's at it again before I can get the nozzle out of the pump. WTF? :rolleyes
A woman opens her car door and tells me he's saying I have to get off the bike to get the fuel, so I do and fuel up.

I enter the shop and ask him what its all about and he says elf n safety.........  I might get burned if I had a flashback/fire whilst sat on the bike......FFS :z

I ask is this his policy or company policy and tell him that I could also get burned from a flashback/fire whilst stood next to the bike and being a fireman, I'm well aware of the dangers of fire. he mumbles some crap about using mobiles too; so I mentioned that if they're that keen on saving me from burning that it maybe a good idea to have all those extinguishers which are lined up outside the shop, placed at the pumps instead.
I then mention that I'm surprised he hasn't asked me to remove my lid but it being a flip that's up, he's ok with it but does say that if I had a dark visor and lid then he would ask me to remove it so he could see my face...............cue me ask him if he'd ask a woman wearing a burka the same question.
He starts to lose it and shouts "I'm not getting into this" :lol

then from behind comes the comment
"GET ON WITH IT......THERE'S A QUEUE HERE"

Now I feel the red mist rising like a volcano but manage to keep my cool, I turn to see an arl tw*t in the queue and tell him that I'll move when I'm ready. They open up another till to ease the queue and I ask the crying tw*t if he's happy now

I'm not into aggro for aggro sake but it does my tits in when people just accept shit, especially under the guise of elf n safety without challenging these goons

Can anyone tell me the size of this nut? I need to get the yoke off.

Cheers!

I thank you.

After picking up a tasty custom seat from Deefer666, I'm clearing the garage out so my standard seat is now for sale.


The vinyl is in pretty good nick except it's getting a little stiff at the front.


Also a couple of little splits at the front.

To any of you fine people £25 posted, or £20 if you want to put the queens head in my hands in person.


So if you're thinking of getting your seat re-upholstered, but kinda need yours to make the ride to work more comfortable, have this one, and you've got a cheap spare! (Then sell yours on after and the circle of life continues Simba!)

Hi I just ordered a rear caliper off a Fazer 1000 and am wondering if anyone here knows which brake pads to go for as I have seen several shapes when looking.
This is the one I have ordered if that helps and they have one left if anyone else is looking to upgrade.

Thanks

Buts It's not another fazer. Even though I was looking at some.

It's a 1990 cbr1000 f. Needs a bloody lot of work, but it was £150!

Means I'll be able to keep up with you lot on the ride outs!

Yes...it's me and the lovely JulesTheCat 

Went to start my bike today and it won't start. I can hear the starter motor spinning but it was not engaging....any ideas what might be wrong..

  How come im out on my bike in the cold and total strangers come up to me and say "oh I bet you're cold" and then in the summer total strangers come up to me and say "oh I bet your hot" on both accounts NO and foc off. So how come they never say "oh I bet you are having a fantastic time out on your bike aren't you"
