I like my leathers, anyway, good ones are not cheap to replace:



Inside these boots:


...and with this helmet: (not to scale!)

i secretly quite like the whole xjr / zrx / cb13 bikes.

Got my eye on an MT-01 for this year though, if i flog off a couple of me others. Mrs likes the look of it and we fancy going over to sweden in the summer on it.
 
oh buy the way. your mot ran out on the 8/8/2011


That bike has been off the road of a few years, the crank shat it's bearings and proved more than the bike was worth to get a new one. Fair as I know the lad still has the bike, just in bits. Was a right wheelie machine though.
 
Oi i'm on the back thankyou very much. Was after I lost me bike license.

Pardon my ignorance, but if one loses one form of license, for, say being ****ed in charge of a motorbike, don't you also lose your car license, or vis versa?

just means he can't ride a bike while he's ****ed.. midnight jaunts in a Landrover are fine unless he's.. no wait..

To be fair, his ban might have ended by now, but it'll hardly help his case this time.... "I'm usually such a sensible driver your honour..... I didn't touch a drop until immediately after I crashed for no reason".

I lost my bike license coming up to 6yrs ago now. Everytime I have the money saved up to do it again, something always crops up and needs the money.
 
No just had to start from the very begining, so reapply for provisional, cbt, theory, test. Was just like being 16 again.

Did you have a full bike licence at the time (ie, passed all your tests?). If you did, and were banned for a certain time period, and weren't ordered to retake the test, surely your licence would be reinstated after that period? How long were you banned for?

Technically it was 'revoked'. You get 2years on 6points then after that it goes upto 12.

But it was when they were coming down on speeding bikes so they threw the book at me. Took my license, stupid fine and a ban.

So had to start from the begining again. As said was just like being 16 again. Have heard of people taking their tractor tests and such like. So if they do loose their license they only have to take one to get the rest back.
