And Amsterdam as of Saturday. I've been infrequently on here for quite a while, though I used to post (a lot of crap) 10 odd years ago. To be fair not really been using my PC much for quite a while (since I got my Xbox), though I keep thinking of getting a SFF box. (PC isn't coming with, but...

Kanji is hard, I haven't used it in quite a while, and have forgotten a lot of it. Hiragana / Katakana and grammer (bunpou) are easy. Other people i know have picked it up from Anime, comic books and the like. Though some people can speak Engrish ;) well, once out of major cities the chances...

To be fair i think mine are quite cheap..... 35 VTR 1000 SP1 track bike with full track fairing, no lights and after marker high level exhausts VTR 1000 SP2 Road bike, completely standard £300 odd fully comp (Multi Bike) with a £125 excess & 6 years NCB Garaged SH300i Fully Comp £90...

Van Gough and the Rijksmuseum are probably both worth a shout. If you plan to visit Anne Franks house, get there early, queues are huge. Other than that you have a fair few suggestions already. Taxis are expensive (especially unsolicited) and unnecessary. Public transport is very good, and...

I think you'd be lucky to get £3k for your SV at a dealer, they've got to get it ready to sell, then offer a warranty on it. Other than that; All bikes seem to have increased substantially recently, and with our exchange rate buggered, I can only see prices going up further, this will have a...

Wouldn't a Macbook rather than the Pro suffice for this sort of thing?

Yes you can, my sister took her restricted VFR400 out on track several times, and yes she'd get blasted past on the straights she enjoyed herself. http://www.peterwilemanphotography.com/main/index/detail/1112143 That was at Le Mans, she took a GSX-R 600 out on track after than and loved...

I have several helmets; Cheap Box lid - used for when I park up at the airport Arai RX7-GP (Replaced Arai RX7-RR) Track day lid Shoei Z7 (NXR) Commuting lid Bikes; SH300 scooter (Commuter) VTR SP1 (Track Bike) VTR SP2 (Road Bike) 450 Supermoto (Cocking about)

The TL 1000 in standard trim might not handle brilliantly, but it'll not cost a lot to sort The SP1 & SP2 are not light bikes, and underpowered in todays terms The Mille can be had for far less than the SP1 / SP2 and handles better than the TL. That being said, I have an SP1 & an SP2.... :p

I've got a dark smoke on my Arai GP, and a mirrored on my Shoei NXR The Arai is now my spare / track lid, the Shoei is my every day one. I only got the mirrored on the Shoei because they didn't have a dark smoke in stock when I bought the Lid, but I'm just as happy with the mirrored one.

The ombudsman will only get involved if you've followed their complaints procedure first, you can't just get the ombudsman involved to speed things up. Get details of their complaints procedure and initiate it. Once this has been followed, you can lodge a case with the ombudsman (which...

That's not correct. My sisters VFR400 (NC30) and a friends' CBR400RR both required restricting to 33BHP. (washers in the inlets). Without the restriction they are closer to 55-60BHP

I'm short 1,3,5,6,10 I have duplicates of 2,4,7 If anyone is interested?

Personally I don't think it's a good idea; New riders are more likely to crash through inexperience (predominantly panicing) With a faster more powerful bike it's likely to be a bigger accident As you get older it takes longer to heal 1st years NCB is where you're likely to get your...

If you're going brand new, I certainly would go FC on the insurance, 9K is a hell of a lot to risk on a TPO...... As to which bike, test ride them both and get what you like more, you only live the once. Both bikes will be more than capable of what you want :)

Unfortunately due to (lack of) funds, it looks like I'll only be doing 1 track day this year. Donington Park, No Limits 07/08/13, with a group name of LJ Motorcycles if anyone is interested :) If you're there, I'm on a HM plant liveried SP1 in inters so pop over to say hi :)

Your "legal cover" is actually the insurer selling your details to a no win no fee outfit

I don't think that should put you off, that's be like saying the car broke down when learning to drive so gave up. Honda is a Japanese Company, and the CBF doesn't have a kickstart.......
