  1. They should do both a ‘Woodbines’ and a ‘Capstan full strength’ special limited edition, for proper men, perhaps in batches of 10 and 20 respectively…

    With the possibility to be able to buy just one from the old chap at the corner shop.

  2. We are but I’m fairly sure another one will come along at some point and anyway this stuff was on offer.
     
  3. Rocked up at Moto Rapido at 8:15 this morning for the Pikes Peak’s first oil service. Hard to believe the last 2 years have flown by. Andy

  4. Most, if not all Ducatis have this.
    My old Suzuki GSX750 also had it back in the 80’s.
     
  5. Had my bike redelivered back from Ducati Sunderland :)

  10. Waved goodbye to my 1098s that I've owned for the last 15 years and welcomed in the new bike a K16

  14. Weather was pretty good here today, 12c dry and sunny, so…quick spin on the workhorse Kawasaki to warm it up for a start of season oil and filter change…

    Having moved house twice last year :rolleyes: ..it took me longer to find the bluddy oil filter wrench than actually do the job…

    And despite having drain pan, drip tray and loads of paper towel down , I still managed to get a shitload of oil on the drive ffs !
    All good though :upyeah: , 20 minute job on the Kawasaki, you don’t even need to remove any fairings .
    Felt sooooo good to be on a bike again :D

  15. Spent 46 minutes on the phone with BeMoto getting my insurance sorted for my new V2 multistrada. My current insurer won't cover it ? So I need a whole new multi bike policy ! On the day it switches over they will issue a refund on the remaining policy which will take up to 10 days to arrive in my account!
     
  16. Booked a hotel in Wales for 5 of us for the Easter weekend away on the bikes .

  17. whats your take on them?
    took them 3 weeks to change a gear position sensor on mine.:rolleyes:
     
  18. And what reason did they give for that? Did they have trouble getting the parts from Italy?

    I can only judge and comment on my dealings with them so far…………they collected my bike when they said they would, they serviced it at what I think is a reasonable price, and they redelivered it when they said they would. I have no complaints at the moment.
     
  19. maybe as everything i order form them takes ages to come in, even bolts.
     
  20. Deleted as posted in error
