Re: The Motorbikerist Thread

He's after an Aprilia RS125 GP Edition when he's 17 in a couple of months, and as much as I do like them the parts availability is a bit off-putting. Anyway it went back together easily enough and is tipping into corners like a loon on a nice new round tyre.

Aprilia SXR 50 very slow edition

Will's scooter needed a new rear tyre, so as is usual I ring up the tyre place across the road, order a tyre and take the loose wheel over to be fitted. Simples.

Re: The Movie Thread

I went to the premiere of Luca - Seeing Red last night. Harris' film about Luca Montezemolo, with a live Q&A after with them both and the director. It was really good, deffo one to watch when it comes out.

He's an fascinating man, and answered every question after with a complete unrelated story. :D

Re: Your fleet running reports


The Autel has been fantastic if you need a bit more than the basics. Don't need to mess about with a laptop with dedicated software on anything now. It'll do all the gearbox adaptations and brake bleeding and various calibrations on almost anything.


Which Autel do you have? The "basic" MaxiSYS ...

Re: Leather belt

I bought a very nice leather belt from John Lewis last weekend. £45. Which seems expensive but the last one survived 15 years of daily use.
