  1. That made me look up who actually supports what, found a handy list on wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endorsements_in_the_United_Kingdom_European_Union_membership_referendum,_2016
  2. The thing that really bugs me about both sides is they keep on making doomsday statements without ever actually explaining why it will mean I spend the rest of my days crying in a ball in the corner while the rest of Europe prospers/falls apart.
  3. Couldn't really commute with a car even if I wanted to, have to filter through about 20 miles of standstill traffic as it is. Think I'd kill myself if I had to sit in it . Would be nice to have a car again though, just for the practicality of a boot and heating haha.
  4. Do it! It's one of the best things I've ever done. Can be expensive at first but just hire the bits you need and slowly build up your kit if you decide it's something you want to keep doing. I really don't like doing it in the UK though. Cold water, can't really see much...it gets boring. Though being able to get to places where the water isn't always like that is also an expensive business .
  5. I decided to try out the fully synth and see how it goes. Worst case I'll just change it again I guess. Thanks for the help guys .
  6. The manual just says 10w40, neither that nor the haynes manual I have specify fully/semi. Not sure if that means I'm fine to use either?
  7. Time for my first oil change. Turns out it's not as simple as I'd thought it would be . I've seen a lot of arguments between the use of semi/fully synthetic engine oil. Fully: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motul-7100-Motorcycle-Oil-10w40-2-Litres-Fully-Synthetic-/251728359982?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3a9c2df22e Part: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Castrol-Power-1-4T-10W40-Part-Synthetic-Motorcycle-Engine-Oil-2x1L-2L-/151264293932?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item23380df42c For the sake of £4.61 I'd rather get the better stuff...unless it's all just a marketing ploy? Thoughts?
  8. Out of interest do you all use your own bikes or does anybody hire a bike?
  9. I looked on ebay and couldn't find anything . Cheers .
  10. So it looks as if someone has tried to get my top box off my removing the screws attaching it to the bike. http://media.givi.it/XN-Prodotti/istruzioni/449FZ.pdf From the top picture I need 3 of the number 6 screws. Any idea where I can get some/what else would be compatible and easy to get hold of?
  11. Whichever scrote lowlife piece of shit has tried to remove my top box by trying to get the screws out and now it's loose on the bike and I need to buy more .
  12. This made me cringe =D I felt like stopping at letting a bus hit me tbh , probably would have felt better.
  13. Me today -_-. Filtering through Chelmsford in very slow moving traffic and I get to a roundabout. See a gap, jump into it. Only then do I see the part time traffic lights are turned on and are on red .
  14. Nah the speedo isn't driven off the front wheel, I was wondering if the sprocket would affect my speedo actually. It's digital if that makes a difference? Thanks for the offer bud but I'm not really too confident in messing with things like the chain for the first time without someone at least watching what I'm doing to make sure I don't cock up somewhere .
  15. I don't have one, I was thinking of buying the stuff and then doing it myself but the local garage said they would do it for £50. So I decided since I'm not very experienced and it could be quite dangerous if I do it wrong I'll leave it to them . I'll definitely be checking the chain tension before I leave this time though...
