Anybody selling a set of Giles Variobars or the like that will fit a Gen 3? I got a comfort seat last year, and haven't used it, as it made the bars feel too low for comfort.I must be getting old when I'm trying to make a sports bike morne comfortable!

My gen 3 is in need of some new rubber. It's always been sporty tyres I've had on it, k3 and power RS. Loved the K3 tyres, but never particularly liked the RS tyre. Most of what I'm using the bike for is long runs in all weather in the north of Scotland these days, just back from 4 days doing...

Not been using the s1000 a lot over the last year or 2, so thought I'd try something a bit different. Had a few crossers back in the day, but never really tried a proper supermoto. Had been looking at hypermotard 1100, but then saw this, and thought I'd give it a go. Had it out in the rain and...

Completely unrelated to s1000, but if there is anybody interested in 90s Jap cars, my R32 GTR is in an auction on Collecting Cars at present. https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/1989-nissan-skyline-r32-gt-r-1

Anybody from the forum over at the TT? I'm watching the live stream from work, thinking I need to take my wife over there next year for our wedding anniversary :courage: For anybody that likes the road racing, well worth the ?15 subscription to watch all the racing.

Just read on Facebook that Ducati Glasgow and Triumph Glasgow have called in the administrators. Hopefully not true and can be saved. But quite possibly another business going to **** because of the virus.

Last week I saw an ad on the book of faces to win a Skyline GTR r32. And thought, hmmmm, I know of a fellow that won one of these competitions a few months ago, and got himself a MK2 escort rally car. Did a bit of research on the company, and seemed genuine, and paid 20 quid for a ticket...

@loupe was that you that near blew me off the road coming into Inverness from Drumnadrochit tonight? I was just dottering along debating with myself whether to have a beer or a cider when I got to Inverness, and a m sport RR and a CBR blasted past me.

Some new boots ready for when the weather improves

Anybody else being seeing this? Thought it was fake news from the daily mail and the Sun, but now visor down are covering it. https://www.visordown.com/news/general/guy-martin-appears-court-charged-using-fake-driving-licence I've just watched his latest program about his van, and is a great watch

Thinking of buying a new back protector, as the one i have is a pretty old alpinestar joby, and the elastic shoulder straps are getting loose. It also seems quite bulky compared to modern stuff. What are you guys using? Any that you would recommend looking at, or steering clear of.

I'm probably over thinking (working nightshift out here has that effect) about tyres for my first proper trackday at knockhill in a few weeks. Only ever done a couple of Ron Haslam days, and I've booked a James whitham day at knockhill to slowly edge myself into trackdays and build my self...

Has anybody got any advice for tyre pressures for a 1/4 mile drag race? I've got metzelar k3's on the bike at the moment, and looks like I'm going to have a bash at a 1/4 miles race tonight, for charity. Tyres will be cold, as a lot of hanging around between goes at it, and I don't have...

I've just booked onto the James Whitham Trackday at Knockhill on Monday July 16th. This is my first trackday, other than doing Ron Haslam school a couple of times a few years ago. To say am nervous is an understatement!!!! https://www.jameswhitham.com/tracks/knockhill Is there anybody else on...

Anyone planning on heading to edinburgh this weekend, the show has been re-scheduled. http://www.scottishmotorcycleshow.com

Morning folks. Can anybody recommend a hotel in Glasgow area that would have secure parking? Got to go down for a course for work, and thinking I may take the bike and get a blast down through Skye, and Fort William. Would need to be close enough to Glasgow to get into Clydebank for half 7 in...

Red 12 plate parked up in car park in Callander around 2 or 3 in afternoon.

Morning everybody. Westy sent me a video of his Yoshi R55 slip on exhaust a while back, and that made me decide on getting one of these, although the Arrow was still a close 2nd. I've finally got the spare cash to order one, but looks like they have stopped making them, so think I will go for...

https://www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocial/news-and-views/racing/british-superbikes/2016/december/new-legislation-could-mark-the-end-of-bike-racing-in-uk I've just come across this on Facebook. Hopfully the UK government drag there heels on this until we're out of the EU.
