    Well done on the test. Don't stop there. Do an advanced course soon.

    I'll probably do one next year before the summer.
    I'm practicing counter steering whenever i can.

    Bridge looks like it belongs in a Ww2 flick. Sweet machine, did you hit the limiter on das autobahn?

    Ha,I'd say it has its origins in that era alright. Across the bridge is France.
    Got a good few runs indicated at 300, but a GPS 276 was the best I could muster.

    Picked up the new steed on Sunday. Quick spin back from Belfast and loving it so far. Feels really planted, noise and induction is addictive and generally well pleased, although reminds me of WALL-E!!

    Have a few things I'd like to do to it and will post some more pics but loving it so far!! :)

    Yeah I'd say try it. Very torquey low down but has the power as well. The whistle and the roar put smiles on the face. Feels really good in the corners, as I said planted!

    I actually bought it privately from a nice man that was very up front and open with it. It was the model, colour, spec etc so just pulled the trigger

    Got to try out a friends Dyna, easily the loudest bike I have ever been on. That pipe is insane! Made me appreciate my Fat Bob a bit more :)

    A brand new Royal Enfield Interceptor GT came out for it first run today.

    Looks good, and it's being gently run in.

    Tank bag attached to the petrol cap? Not a pain in the hole filling it? Was thinking of something similar, handy for the phone, maps etc, but thought having to take it on and off each time, put me off

    Not at all.

    But then you're at the mercy of a third party hosting site, and some have re-used links to show porn etc. or just break.

    He's already attached it to his post, so [noparse]URL of the attachment[/noparse] would display it, and it's hosted on Boards so won't stop working.

    There are some threads on Boards that are practically unreadable after six months or so due to link rot,

    Fingal County Council are certainly not competent to be making decisions about the most important piece of infrastructure on the island. They need to stick to badly designed cycle lanes and deciding on whether Mrs Murphy can have her kitchen extension.

    I have the same bag, theyre handy, I dump the contents of my pocket into it along with visor wipes, spare plugs etc. If you can get magnetic they're cheaper, especially the waterproof ones.
