    What's usually included in a bike service?

    I took my bike for a service to a good garage with people I trust that work there, but even when I emphasise the current mileage and future long distance road trips I'm going to take the bike on, I get the impression all they do is change the oil and filter. I feel like maybe I should give them...

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

    Might be a dumb question but I've got a GTX 1070 which I know is old now, but should it be able to use RTX in Witcher 3 without any issues? Because I get unplayable lag with it enabled. Other than that I get 60 FPS with everything maxed

    Flexible wind/water proof gloves?

    Alright so just in case anyone is interested in the future; these Revit sand 4 waterproof gloves were exactly what I was looking for I've been riding around with them for the week, they are a tight fit and retain a similar feel to my summer gloves when at the controls. In terms of warmth they're...

    Flexible wind/water proof gloves?

    Sounds like a tough old salt! I picked up a pair of Rev'it Sand 4 H2O Leather Gloves, from the reviews they seem to be a bit thinner than the usual gauntlets so I'm eager to try them out

    Flexible wind/water proof gloves?

    I've got a pair of Dainese summer gloves which I wear even during short trips in winter because I like to feel the controls and be more nimble, and I've got chunky gauntlets for when it rains or longer trips. I'm wondering if anyone here has used gloves that are kind of similar to the summer...

    Dropped the bike - clutch gets stuck going in to high gears

    Thanks for the replies. The problem seems to have resolved itself after I left the bike alone for 2 days, I got back on and tried to replicate the issue before taking it into the garage and couldn't get the clutch stuck in 5th again it's been changing gears ok so far. I took it to a mechanic...

    Dropped the bike - clutch gets stuck going in to high gears

    I have such a bad habit of picking awkward places to park, it was a tight turn and I was at full lock ended up going over with the bike falling on the right side. Brake lever is bent going to buy a new one, however an issue occurred once I got on to the dual carriage way and I tried to get into...

    Riding in France/Spain

    Just bumping this thread as I would like to do a solo trip to France and came across this page that was last updated 2022 and it states you have to wear a high viz stickers on the helmet? Has anyone done a trip in the last year or so and more informed about the rules?

    Ouch that hurt a bit - Thank **** for ATGATT

    Do you remember fast were you riding when the accident happened? I often assume people are riding fast with the injuries they receive but it kinda scares me to see horrible injuries even at slower speeds

    *** Show us your bikes! ***

    It was time to sell my little Yamaha YBR which I had for 3 years and try something more suited to intermediate so I opted for the Honda CB500x, had it for 6 months and so far it's been great, the height is unusual and part of the "adventure" style but when you're on the road you feel very...

    Helmet Bluetooth Speakers 2022

    I just got a Nexx Sx.100 full face helmet that's got space for speakers, it's built for the Nexx X.Com bluetooth kit which comes in at £180+ although most places have it discontinued. Really I doubt I will hear much any way going 60mph+ so I'm just looking for a cheaper pair of speakers to try...

    Upgrade advice for PC that is rendering + gaming focused

    I'm going to go with: - AMD Ryzen 9 5900X - MSI MAG X570 Tomahawk motherboard and at a later date will look into new ram and GPU. I'm still using my Super Flower Leadex GOLD 650W power supply from 2016, do you reckon this is fine to continue with?

    Upgrade advice for PC that is rendering + gaming focused

    About £450 for cpu but I can go a little higher if you think it's worth it, then I'd need a motherboard. I just looked at DDR5 prices for ram, I'd like to try and stick with my DDR4 for now

    Upgrade advice for PC that is rendering + gaming focused

    The 5950x is something that was recommended to me - I'm not sure I can go that far with the price. The 5900x looks alright, £450 in some places, then there's the 5800x at £300, but at this price point is it worth looking at Intel

    Upgrade advice for PC that is rendering + gaming focused

    Yeah I wanted to keep the 1070 - it's 6 years old I don't know how long it will last but I figured if I get a CPU and a motherboard I can always get a new GPU to go with it later on. The reason I mentioned the Ryzon CPU is because apparently the 16 core/32 threads is beneficial when using unreal...

    Upgrade advice for PC that is rendering + gaming focused

    I'm looking for primarily a CPU upgrade which in turn is probably going to require a new mobo and ram. I currently have a i5 6600K with a Gigabyte Z170-Gaming K3 motherboard, 32GB of DDR4 PC4-24000C15 3000MHz, and GTX 1070 GPU. My work requires lots of rendering and I'm wondering if it's worth...

    Ready Or Not - Tactical SWAT-esque FPS

    Can't believe it's still top seller being the niche game that it is (was!) And no gaming outlets have covered it at all, why do you think that is?
