Yes - First don't use any sort of washing-up liquid, it's full of salt!

Bleed your brakes?

My lovely wife doesn't have a sun visor in her helmet so I bought her a light sensitive Pinlock which she says is brilliant.

Excellently put by your MP. A name would be good 'cos we can't always identify the good guys.

Thanks Si. Not mincing words as ever  :D

I suspect the involvement of the PPC will be a formality and has to be done whenever an Officer shoots someone whether they are killed or not.

The long wheel base is an issue since the batery is located under the frame, and have to pay attention coming up and down pavements. It's made of cast iron and ots heavy so that is an ok feature, with battery is 100kilos .
Today a pillion seat , a mirror and a tank bag were installed.

Extra lights, fluffy dice.......

It does look like fun around the local shopping mall  ;D

Well said Brian and Simon.

Simon I was a little surprised to learn the murdered copper  (and I use this term with respect) wasn't armed. I had thought all coppers on duty at Westminster were armed. I was stopped on the M1 last week following an accident and the Traffic Officer had a hand gun on his belt!

It may be worth measuring to see if it's set up the same as the original.

If I wash my bike and put it away then the brakes will be stuck on when I come to move it a few days later.

If it is wet out and I put the bike away wet then the brakes will be stuck on when I come to move it a few days later.

I've come to realise that this is what happens and it is no big deal. If you don't want it to happen then don't put your bike away with wet brakes.

Do you mean stuck and then release OK? If so this is probably the metallic bits in your pads rusting to the discs. Happens to mine too and leaves a rusty mark on the disc.

Hmmmm..... if true it will be interesting to see how it pans out. Reliability will be a test.
