The ride will start at 11.00 a.m. from Severn View services, Aust, junction 1 M48 on the English side of the Old Severn Bridge near Bristol.

The parade ride will pass over the Severn Bridge following a route through several local towns and villages then culminate in the town of Chepstow.

The roads and car parks in Chepstow will be closed to other traffic and only open to participants of Hoggin' the Bridge.

Does anyone use these type of products in their tyres? Iv'e read the 'FAQ's' on the OKO website and the potential for wheel imbalance puts me off, but i love the idea of it fixing a puncture before you know you've got one. It works a treat on the trials bike but obviously wheel balance isn't an issue.

Remember my thread about a project bike for Winter? Well its going to be her in a couple of weeks


I've done a bit of research and apparently I am going to get familiar with carbs
So - go on then - should I try to restore it and keep it as it is or aim to turn it into some tarts handbag?

I've just bought an ais removal kit from justy1 and was wondering if its possible to remove the ais system without completely removing the radiator (Don't need to tap threads) Would i be able to unbolt the radiator and push out theway, while leaving the hoses attached. The reason i ask this is because the bike is very high miles '108 000' and i have already replaced one of the hoses due to fatigue and i don't want to remove them unless its necessary.

a biker in switzerland was caught speeding while sliding down the road at 66mph http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-...-bike.html

:lol  This made me chuckle . . . .

Double ouch !

Been sat here for a while now, pondering my next move in life and I am at the stage where I cant even be arsed to go out on the bike.  Is this it?  Have I reached the end of my biking days?  Recently moved, still unemployed but have a new love but still cant be bothered even just to slip on my lid and jacket and go out for a blat!  WTF is wrong with me??  When I had my zed12 it was all I could do NOT to go out and it was like that when I first got the fazer so whats gone wrong??  Perhaps the three year break I had from it is playing its hand, dunno.


Anyone else get like this?
