Stupid fucking judge dismissing my injury case from a bike accident a year ago because they believed the implausible lies of the defendant which defy physics and how you ride a motorcycle. Pissed of doesn't even begin to cover it. _________________

sadly the law is an ass, and blatantly geared against bikers, all 'judges' (read trumped up arse bandits with a superiority complex)
seem to think we are all hooligans... well I am but that's besides the point not al bikers are _________________ The Resident Forum Ghost |

1) Front brakes buggered on the car so new dics and pads had to be fitted.
2) Stator Gone on the CBF and the head bearings screwed too - Small Mortgage required to pay for that
3) Battery has died on the Fury (only a year old ffs).

Boudicas... google Fireblade/CBF Stator problems... I think there was possibly a recall...
Re the Head bearings, I don't think Honda grease them any more.... don't get OE ball races, get taper roller - far better - www.bikebearings.co.uk is where I get mine... _________________

I don't do so many miles now, but it seems that car drivers are driving closer to the white lines making it difficult to pass, and they don't move over as much ! _________________ It's all down to quality of life ! |

Didn't check my rear brake pads as I'd only done 5,500 miles on them and scooter failed mot. Had to buy genuine honda as I couldn't get pattern ones the same day. Cost me £37 instead of £8 for pattern, will make sure I have spares at home. _________________ It's all down to quality of life ! |

The TRX failed it's last mot in october due to the fork seals leaking but had new seals fitted so it would pass, which it did. I saw one small pit on one stanchion when I viewed the bike in december. It has only covered 13km since the mot, and they are both leaking ! I suppose the dealer was lucky that they didn't leak straight after they fitted them and during the mot. _________________ It's all down to quality of life ! |
