So I was happy to go along with the mechanic’s call on the b...

Re: IAM RoadSmart advanced motorcycling test...
I’d sure I’m due a retest at 3 years, I pay my annual IAM and subs to SLAM (local training group) but I’m more than happy to take a re-test ... 3 years down the line !

Re: Throttle Gizmo
Same as riding with thicker style winter gloves on, just wear summer gloves and turn up the heated grips.

Re: Throttle Gizmo
I tend to get it in summer during a long ride. are when touring, I put it down to the thin summer gloves I wear, definitely not as bad with a thicker glove ... only happens to the right hand (awaits silly comments )

Re: Insurance quote weirdness.
Just spent 90 minutes trawling through comparison sites and got my insurance a bit lower. Same company as my renewal (Hastings Direct),but I got it for £104 instead of their quote for £108. Not a massive win, but better in my pocket than theirs!. Just depends how you value your 90 minutes...
