NW 200 is coming up in a few weeks. One of the best race meets on the calendar.


Any of you guys coming over for that?


Any of you plan to ride the North Antrim Coast road?


If so... I hope you enjoy our hospitality! And have a great visit to our little country!

anybody help me please  :'( , i recentl bought a simmi end can for my fazer, is the link pipe sposed to be a smaller hose then the standard one and do you still need a silencer gasket as it seems very tight without it, is it because its still on standard downpipes or doesnt it matter. seriously starting to wind me up trying to get this bastarding can on thinking about getting my matches out!!!!! :evil

Topical topic!

Went out on Monday night in my so-called waterproof textile jacket and encountered hailstones, torrential rain, drizzle and mud pies left by tractors

I was only out for 1/2 an hour and it took two days for my jacket (Aldi Crown) to dry out. It is over a year old now and has seen some weather but even had wet arms where the rain came through the outer layer and the thermal liner and as for my T shirt- well I rung that out :'( .

It is just out of the washing machine as it was pretty filthy (fluorescent yellow model)

So,....... cut out the middle man and throw it away or treat it with some wonder spray that will stop all future water getting as far as me?

Cant afford a new jacket at the moment so- treat it or go back to my old Weiss jacket that did at least have some semblance of waterproofing or plan B... dont ride when it is raining :rolleyes

Did anybody know that crash bugs are classed as a modification and can void your insurance if you do not tell your broker?
The only reason I know this is I own a 1999 Fazer and have added the decals form a 2000 Fazer. Last summer I had an accident  with a driver who didn't see me (we've all been there). When my bike went in for repair my broker rang me up to say my bike was not standard and this may effect my claim. I politely told him to go forth and multiply as I was not claiming on my insurance but the other driver. He explained to me that any modification  however small you may think it is must be declared.
My claim did go through without any problems but be warned.
Only issue I've got now is that I've got heated grips, a hugger, braided hoses, a gear indicator and luggage on the bike so getting a quote is a nightmare.

Hi
I've been looking for one of these for ages and wasn't sure which one to go for and whether to go for new or second hand.
The second hand ones on evil-bay fetch silly money.
I settled in the end for a new V46 tech as I thought it would go well with my black gen 1.
Best price I could find was about £175 for the box and £87 for the fitting kit which comprised M5 plate and 348FZ arms.
Anyhow, I just was trawling through various other forums and came across a guy who had purchased the V46 tech box and fitting kit for his Honda from these folks in Italy for £200 inc delivery. It all arrived safely 5 days later.

So I have decided to take the plunge and have gone for it. Total cost for all 3 bits inc delivery was £195 which I thought was a result
I will update you when or if it arrives. So if any of you are thinking of doing the same, have a quick look at this site before buying.
Regards
Steve
