  1. Hi, I've been looking at buying some Rukka gear because of the Gortex pro shell laminated bit i.e. unlike the membrane jackets this ones layers are if you like lamented together. Makes it lighter and it doesn't suck up water like my current Wolf Titanium stuff. Grateful for any info. Thanks Shirl
  2. Marky, thanks I will try that. So the long plastic / rubber bit, what is that for
  3. Hi, Yea I like it. Ive done over 12000 miles since March so its been well tested. Its my first bike though so nothing to compare it to.
  4. Hi have just got one of these nd am having trouble fitting it to the handle bar. Tried to attach a pic but apparently its too big. The is a u shape bit that goes around the handlebar and a long plastic/rubber bit that I assume slides onto the other bit. 2 problems here, its hard to get it on and even if I could seems to long. confused :-/ Shirl
  5. Hi Haven't got one yet but hoping to get one. Has anyone fitted one of these to an MT07, my electronic display is where you might expect to fit it? Cheers Shirl
  6. Cheers what happens at Ryas on Fridays, huts are ok but I prefer to have access to a loo
  7. Hi Guys Was thinking there must be some bike meets for Friday nights but aside from Ace I don't know where they are. Did Ace last week, was a good night but the horrid journey is off putting Shirl
  8. Passed test a couple of weeks ago, already a 1000 miles on this First big bike
  9. Second go at Mod 2 today and actually did it. So relieved! Didn't come naturally from CBT but 8 months on I have a shiny new licence and a shiny new MT 07 Moto Cage to collect next week
  10. Hi Thanks for your replies. Silly to have nerves really but saying it and dealing with them effectively isn't easy. As for the speed limits, one road I was on I had no idea so just guessed at 30 :-/ Off out for practice soon
  11. Disappointed, really hoped to get that one first time. Did it yesterday in Erith, told to head for Belvedere, couldn't see which exit I needed and when decided to leave roundabout didn't signal doh! oh and a minor for undue hesitance, gave way to a learner driver but gap big enough. Test nerves have a lot to answer for, I would never do that in real life :-/ Doing next time in Basildon. Any all advice on test techniques welcome, I don't want 7 flippin goes at this one will end up bankrupt. Shirl
  12. Hi all Am not going to say when test is as don't want the added pressure, so no asking Had first training for it today. I did mess up as was in wrong lane to where I was meant to go and switched. I know, I shouldn't have done that :-/ The only other thing I was doing wrong and have presumably always been doing wrong is when turning right at a roundabout I was ending up in left lane to early. He wanted me to stay in right lane longer. Any advice on this would be helpful Thanks Shirl
  13. Hi All I live in Essex but did mod 1 out of Erith, first one because it was all that was available and after that,well just because they are a nice bunch in there will be doing mod 2 there also but of course don't know much about the roads aside from the route to the test centre from the Dartford crossing Shirl
  14. Hi Everyone and thanks for all of your comments. Am ready to get on with it now, Mod 2 training at the weekend Shirl
