Re: New helmet

Hi Connor .the best bet with helmets is to try them on to see what fits best , please don't just buy on graphics. They have a good selection in Shorrocks , Preston or the Rocket , Blackburn . An Xxl in an AGV won't be an Xxl in a nitro . You should get something nice within your budget , the more a...

Re: Bike Security

Thanks for the replies even the funny ones, the light and camera aren't a bad idea the cover is already on and its secured with straps. I wasn't that bothered with the CG because I had a hard enough job starting that thing I'd love to see a little chav try, I can imagine it's a lot easier with this ...

Re: Been having a few issues.

Everything does seem fine on it now but was just wanting a second opinion and no I don't have a multimeter I'm afraid. Sent from my XT1039 using Tapatalk Where in Liverpool a...

That pointed towards an ignition error apparantley. So after a ...
