I’m closer to ulverston where Stan Laurel was born.
Thanks for the replies...while I have your attention I have a question about my pcx.. only done 30 miles on it because of a health issue I was unable to ride it as often as I would have liked, I’m now concerned about the fuel sitting idle in the tank not getting used. I hope to be up and about In About 3-4 weeks from now but I was worried about the fuel getting clogged in the injectors. Tia.
I can hear my bike calling me from the garage it’s doing my nut in not riding it right now. :cry:

Your gasoline is fine, you're overthinking it. If it goes another month in storage, add some sta-bil from the auto parts store.

Fell off the bike today,hit some gravel on a wet road,took left steep corner a tad wide lost the front when it hit the gras verge,bike went one way I bounced onto the road my hand came out to stop the fall as my knee soaked up some gravel,my head hit the road once then kinda bounced up and hit again.
My hand is killing me,have to get an x-ray tomorrow. Cosmetic damage on the bike by the look of it.
Side panels have scuff marks on the edges and one twisted lever,also black panel scuffed a bit but my friend brought it home for me said it works perfect. But thank god I had a helmet and gloves on. Even at 20mph guys...wear your protection always.

Painful news. . .hope you heal quickly. o_O

I was especially glad to read you had your helmet on. I see so many riders in my area who still don't choose to wear one. :)

Those who don't wear a helmet should be required to sign a form that says they don't want the rest of use to pick up the remainder of the hospital bill that they can't afford. Those without helmets who end up in an accident are much more likely to be hospitalized than those who wear a helmet.

PCX150RIDER yes sure was a good job even 20mph if my lid wasn’t on I think I would still be in hospital,thank goodness it’s the law here in the uk to wear one. You think going slow is ok but first hand nope it’s definitely not. Thank you I also hope I heal quick.
MEL we have the nhs thank goodness, I see what you are saying and agree it’s a stupid stupid thing to not use a lid but in all honesty it wouldn’t piss me off as long as they were ok,I see your point tho.
