This may sound stupid but....................... Make sure that your gloves are the very last thing that you put on before you get on the bike. By doing that you are closing all your pockets, zips, helmet, bags etc with bare hands and can feel what you are doing. The amout of people who...

You are a Yorkshireman, we are never too old for anything and even if we are we are to stubborn to be told that we are. My father in law is 75 and still rides his Honda 350T. Simon Gandalfi , the author who is 75 now and riding in India at the moment, I think. Simon was 73 when he rode his...

A bit like opening a big bottle of cola. Those buggers are hard to open as well until you break that seal. Steve

Just before Christmas we lost 20 out of our workforce of 60. We make sails for yachts. We are now taking people on again and I am working overtime Tues, Wed, Thurs and Saturday morning. Someone must be buying yachts again which must be a good sign. Steve

This is just another ride to work for someone in the morning. YouTube - Ligurische Grenzkammstrasse mal etwas anders... Teil2 Steve

They never seemed to fit very tight. I tried double sided tape but they still seem to slide of the end of the bar. I moved to Vista Cruise control and really liked it. Steve

I like the Vista cruise because they are easy to fit and operate. I think I have lost 3 cramp busters off the bike. The best screen I had on my 06 was the original screen cut down. The idea is to have a lower screen rather than a higher screen. Ask the naked guys, they do not have any of the...

In Denmark we got snowed in 3 weeks before Christmas and it has been the same ever since. It is just beginning to look as though the snow is going but we have had that about 6 times and it just comes back with a vengence. Our motorbike season starts on the 1st March but is actually more...

We still have lots and lots of snow in Denmark and we even had sun yesterday so it was nice for a walk out. Jannies dad gave us two pairs of cross country skiis that need the bindings refurbishing. As if I have not got enough to do with my little Moto guzzi. By the time I get the skiis...

Here are the DVLA Rules for bikes: Motorcycles and Tricycles There are separate vehicle registration provisions for motorcycles and tricycles. Basically motorcycles registered after 1.9.2001 must only display a number plate at the rear of the vehicle. Motorcycles registered before 1.9.2001...

I would suggest starting an internet motorcycle club. I belong to one in Denmark and it is very relaxed and all the events are well attended. I do not like the idea that I have to turn up to a bike club on a certain day each week which is why I prefer the internet club. Someone puts a post...

I don`t have an FZ6.....anymore...and yes the bike I have is everything I need. This was pretty good as well though. Steve

Here is a variation on the theme, and a lot easier to rig up at home I would think. Redleg's Rides: Sanoke's Snow Outrigger Or maybe even this. Dug Motor Company, builder of the ultimate off-road two-wheel-drive and three-wheel-drive motorcycle called the "DUG" bike. These are hand...

Davey, I was not having a pop at you Just Charlie Boredom. But I will take a pace back because it has been pointed out that he does do charity work. But then if I did not have a real job then I would as well. If you want to be inspired by a biker and see one of the best bike films...

Charley Boorman - for riding the Long Way Round/Down and putting up with Ewan MacGreggor all the way! And for sparking my dream of doing something similar one day. You must be joking. :Flip: First of all if it was not for Ewan Mcgregor Charlie Boredom would never have got either of the...

Bert Muroe...God bless him.

The best way to do this is to immerse it in hot water for 30 seconds. Steve

This is a bit long but worth reading. This one is pretty slick since they provide YOU with all the information, except the one piece they want. *Note, the callers do not ask for your card number; they already have it**. * This information is worth reading. By understanding how the...

I think to see a rainbow you first need to have some sun....so don`t make laugh. We have been up to the proverbials in snow for weeks at Denmark. Steve

Dirk..No I have this now This is me in the Swiss Alps in August 2009 But I used to have this which is why I am involved on here Mont St Michel, France. July 2008 Steve
