  1. I can't be certain but as you have to resit the theory test for your full license and they don't take car NCB into account, I wouldn't bother telling them.
  2. Commuting home this evening. Road is 5 lanes wide. 2 left lanes peal off and the other 3 are the start of the motorway. Uber driver in his 7 seater prius realised he's in the wrong lane and cuts across some cars to get off the motorway. I'm in lane 1. He entered lane 2 and then I saw he's not stopping moving across and cut me up at 40mph where I had to slam on the anchor to get in behind him before he went into me from the side. I've a bright red and white cbr, lights on, a huge fluorescent yellow back back and he still went straight into my space. Separate to this on the same commute home I was at a roundabout and last minute decided I needed petrol. But I ended up stopped at the lights on the roundabout in the wrong lane. Instead of cutting up the van to my left I waved at the driver and mimed that I wanted to go left. He gave me the thumbs up. He did the rev your engine mime. So I twisted the throttle a bit before the lights went green. Made me laugh and undo my annoyance at the earlier incident.
  3. I bought the one-piece suit. What a waste of money. I get soaked every time. I now have separate trousers and jacket from armr and Richa a they are great. I have the Oxford hinterland trousers and jacket. Can't really fault them much as they do the job but I'm eyeing up the new laminated suit from spada that's coming out in may.
  4. The shine seems to have settled a bit now. Bought it from a dealer so they must have used some polish on the dash. Now that a few weeks have passed that polish has gone and the glass doesn't really reflect the interior any more.
  5. I've got ultimateaddons on my CBR. Can't fault it. All the brands basically work the same though so just choose the one that has the best attachment to your phone/ camera for you. I used UA as I put my phone in their hard case so my phones touch screen still works in the rain.
  6. I've had 1 accident where I was rear ended when stopped at traffic lights. Low impact I'm the grand scheme of things but the padding stopped me having any major medical issues even though the bike was written off. I'll be forking out for an airbag this summer, probably helite.
  7. Spada are launching new laminate trousers and jacket soon. Details on their site.
  8. I've used UA for years. The clear screen can still be used as a touchscreen. I did consider a quad lock. Although my phone is fully waterproof, when the screen is wet it makes using the screen really difficult so it's useless in the rain. I ride all year around so UA made sense. Also a lot of YouTubers have discount links for them.
  9. I've got a nice little car for sale online. So many Indian scam centres contacting me. Then a genuine guy asks a few questions and asks what my lowest price is. I give him a price and then he asks will I accept 50% of the figure I gave him. Laughing in his face was the only way to ease the frustration. Also I put the car in autotrader. It's come up as cat c which is incorrect. Contacted autotrader who said they can't do anything so now I've to get Experian to change things. No idea how long that'll take and in the meantime the car is advertised as cat c which will put off potential buyers.
  10. I've just collected the car and it was valeted before collection so maybe it'll get better. Wrap might be an idea though.
  11. Due to expanding family I've had to buy a bigger car. All is well but when the sun shines on the dash it creates a glare / reflection in the windscreen. I've had a quick look online and there are mats that can go on the dash to stop the glare. But I don't want to use these are they look terrible. Are there any other options like sprays etc that might help?
  12. We have a baby that likes to move about so I want something that can autofocus to zoom in and out to capture us during the call. There's loads that do this when attached to a pc but I can't find one that can be run just from a phone via Bluetooth or something
  13. I video call family on zoom or Skype regularly using my phone which is annoying having to hold it out. Can anyone recommend a camera I could maybe mount on top of my TV ideally one that would have auto tracking and is compatible to use with an android phone rather than a pc.
  14. They have the controller on the right glove. The left will automatically change temp too so you don't have to change both. I've had a few five gloves as they fit me really well. They are made well and have hard scaphoid protection which is something I always look for.
