Re: Computer doesn't recognise Nav 5

I have had a simmilar problem on my PC.

I found out that there are two types of usb cables. There are data and power cables and just power cables. Tried a few of the cables I had and now stick to the same cable every time.

Re: Central Locking

Congrats, I have #52
The central locking does lock the top box.
First click of the alarm fob sets the central locking ... Second click sets the alarm.

Re: New Tyres please

I'm going to be changing mine at about 8k.

Guess I need to look at the standard of my riding as well then! .... But we all knew that anyway, right?

Re: New Tyres please

I'm close to needing a new set for mine and still confused as to which ones to get and where to get them from.
The PR5 GT's may be out by then ..

Trip plans for 2019

Traditional time of year on here to start the bragging rights to what you have planned to ride in 2019.
I'm expecting to stay UK based next year but I'm not rulling out a quick trip abroad.

Southern softies meet up 17-11-18

Chance to show those northern monkies that real bikers even go out when it's cold outside.

Weather is predicted to be sunny!

Looking at the Chichester area but am open to times and itinerary. Suggestions welcome.

Who's up for it then?

Luxembourg speeding ticket ... 12kph over

Got a letter this morning from Luxembourg saying that I'd somehow managed to get myself a speeding ticket on the motorway (I think!) They possibly have me confused with someone else as I obviously never speed  :silence: My main question is .... Is this in any way, shape or form enforceable?...
