Motorcycle and Scooter appreciation

Sunshine crew is out. Lots of silliness.

That opening scene of Taxi is great.
Not seen the film in yonks, needs a rewatch soon

The original version ;)

Naturally.
Queen Latifa FTW!

Heard there is a French remake but I'll swerve it.

oof.

The sequels weren't great...but the car bits were entertaining.

Just shooting my shot…

Ha!
excellent.

Don't suppose you were heading northbound on the A10 this morning? Saw a flash of yellow heading the other way.

Nope. Currently sat waiting to help a friend move house. Cycled over.

Also available in black, the megastore is local so I tried these on and they came home with me. Definitely not worth the RRP, but insanely comfortable for £50.

Gotta re-learn where pegs and levers are a bit, having spent forever in my old worn-out road boots.

True to size*, soft leather, seem like crushproof-ish sole and ankle protectors. Otherwise basically a classic work-boot.

Had to go half hour or so in town traffic back and forth and found them not-distracting. Would recommend for nonessential stuff where the risks negate full kit.

*I am a UK 9/9.5/9wide. I wear 43-44. 43 in Alpinestar are too tight, 44 in RST Tractech, 43 in Falco, 43 in Forma, 9wide in most dress shoes, 43.5 in Colombia. So, I’m a wide 43. In these 44 were baggy and clownshoe, 43 felt tight to begin with and began conforming to my foot size.

Another lovely day for it

Not really surprising, but has anyone else noticed tyre prices going up?

They’re definitely being inflated.

It's just putting too much pressure on consumers.

You really have to tread carefully in finding a reputable shop

Not sure this discussion will gain traction

This is going round in circles

get a grip

Lost my drz key. Oops. Might just hotwire it with a switch, seems better anyway.

Is the key ignition only?

Looking for some new Michelins and even the old PP 2CT are stupid prices.

Yeah

The S22's I'm watching in ebay just went from £280 to £320.
