Re: Real vs Reel.

My wife saw that ad, and said "Sure going 10KM an hour slower would have allowed him to stop in time.... but if he was going 10KM faster he would have already been past the driver".

Re: Can you repair a ceased throttle body?

I found the solution, thanks to Steve S. After heating it up to 50 degrees in the oven I was able to move the valves, I have been repeating the procedure of heating, lubing and it is slowly getting better and better.....

I hope I will be able to get it to a useable state (I could ride with it now ...

Re: MetalGear Brakes

I have been running the Metalgear Sintered pads for a few weeks now. They feel responsive in both wet and dry, even when cold , no unexpected noises, fit perfectly and half the price of EBC or Ferodo through the shops.

I plan to use them again in the future.

Re: Caught by Mobile Speed Camera?

I recently got a ticket from a mobile camera..
He was parked about 10 metres past a 60km sign. The previous speed zone was 80km. He seemed to be doing a brisk trade...
Although I dont like speeding tickets, I understand that you need to be going 60 BY THE TIME you reach the sign, not slowing down ...
