Re: Shafties

I was really unsure about getting a BMW shaft drive, but i voiced my concerns to Kev (Cabernet) and he put all my worries to rest, gave BMW a big vote of confidence and assured me they last forever. I'm glad i listened as I love my Beemer!

That was a good vid C-J, any chance you could send me where that lane is? Looks ideal.

Re: Taking the big beemer offroad for the first time!

You need to get on an off-road course to build your confidence. Not bad for a 1st out mind. Yes indeed, most likely will be joining you in May. BMW course later in the year. what engine mode and ESA setting do you ride off road on Dan? do you have the enduro pro chip ? this works on the traction co...

Re: Taking the big beemer offroad for the first time!

Haa, i must say the camera doesn't do either the inclines or the size of the rocks justice. And i definately wouldn't be taking your beautiful MV offroad, its a pretty bike that won't scar well. The Beemer takes scars like its service history. Did bottom out on a couple of things but i guess thats w...

Taking the big beemer offroad for the first time!

Hi all, I know generally vloggers get shit on forums, but i find it rewarding to make and edit the videos. I find these offroading videos much better to watch than some 17 year old riding around london filtering and squeeling, so hopefully my own will go down ok. Part 1 (finding the lane and a walka...

Route tracking apps

(My phone is android btw) I dont need anything fancy like speed, lean angle or any of that - just to show where i've been and on what roads (including routes where the roads aren't plotted, e.g. green lanes). Any recommendat...

Re: Epiphany

Lol, no offense taken matey, and i didn't mean to cause any either - I just don't quite understand your situation and its weird to see lots of contradicting posts and the posts say to me that you're spending money that you don't have on bikes, or the posts about buying bikes and range rovers are eit...

Re: Epiphany

Mate, you posted on facebook this morning that you're now homeless, yet also posting about a new bike?

And weeks ago you were talking about buying a range rover vogue?

Whats the deal here?

Rolling workbench for sale

Hi all, My workbench for sale as I no longer have access to the garage it was in! Its a very sturdy bench with a good design, handbuilt by my good self (which means over engineered, lol). The back board piece is removeable, and the whole thing breaks down into 5 main pieces; Back board Work surface ...
