Re: Mistakes whilst riding.

Why not do a Bikesafe day. It is free and one on one 45 minute ride with a cop who will assess you and advise you how to improve. Check the website for dates. I am not being funny but it could save you from a nasty accident and you will fill much more confident with good free advice.

Re: Mistakes whilst riding.

Mistakes are all part of riding. Each time you get away with one it should in effect make you a better rider. Dont beat yourself up over them. Nearly crashed new bike today. Went into a tight bend too quickly. Did not read the road right. Stupid and I should know better but no body is perfect.

Re: Honda NC700

Well here she is alongside my brothers R1. Picked up this morning and it now has 150 miles on the clock. 90% of that was on twisty country lanes and i am pretty tired after today. Perfect bike for my needs and handles very well. Got some raised eyebrows outside a pub known to bikers as i put my helm...

Re: Came off

Sorry to hear of your off. I guess you must be a new rider as braking on a bend especially in the wet is a nono but i guess you have learnt the hard way. Just put it down to lack of experience. The middle body piece took 3 months for my dealer to get but obviously it is down to colour. Good luck fin...

Re: Best colour PCX?

I went for black as it looked great with the chrome. Also like the red which is new for this year. Just look at em all in the flesh and decide. Black shows all the marks up so it would be the red if I did it again. The white and silver just dont do it for me. Red will stand out too in daylight bette...

Re: Rode the PCX125. Bought the 150

I had a feeling most of you would beat me up on this but I wanted to mention it anyway for the few that might find it useful. Especially for those that want to make a short blast on the expressway on a stock 125 which will not get to 100kph actual speed reliably unless you tuck. Stock 125 always go...

Re: Honda NC700

Clearly the Go Pro has better colours but I just can not get used to the boxy design and it wont look so good on a helmet.

Re: Rode the PCX125. Bought the 150

I have found a comfortable way to adopt a partial tuck to let the bike handle wind better. I slide back on the seat where the hump used to be, hook my left hand under the bars near the clamp, and rest my left elbow on my knee. The scooter handles the wind just fine at top speed without need for hav...

Re: Honda NC700

I have been using these for past 8 years. Slip over your jeans without having to take shoes off.

Re: Lust

While the X10 has a good write up it is not very attractive in my eyes. At the end of the day it is a scooter for 5k which is cheaper than some of the other new maxi scooters but a lot of money for well ... a bloody scooter.....

Re: CycleShell

Do i need to point out most Harley riders do not wear bandanas or tassles or are you really that daft in thinking so? Are you kidding? And the tassles can be on the bikes too. Or haven't you seen that either? I go to USA every year and specifically to a town called Racine in Wisconsin which has a b...
