    nice one beren, you certainly jumped in the deep end for a first timer. CREATURE would not be quite so confident on the open road as you. CREATURE finds your input useful and will try to learn from your experiences. CREATURE wishes you luck with your practice, be safe.

    Unsure of what type of lid you have but some form of anti fog system will cure your visor fogging up, personally I use the Shoei pin lock set-up & swear by it this does not mean you have to buy a Shoei ( I have mine fitted to a Nitro Aerotech helmet ), you can modify to fit most helmets, if you know someone that has such a set up borrow their film & see how if fits on your visor & if it's ok you only need to size it up & drill a couple of holes then your all set to go

    Well my commute in the UK on a pushbike was 15km's through ice and snow... so the idea that cars will try and leap out of ditches to squish you is quite inbuilt!

    Bah, got to get home tonight to sort out some grazing and then carry on working... I do love my job - honest! Will certainly try and pencil it in for next week though.

    This thread is useless without pictures. Especially one of the ST on a trailer!

    Sounds like a possible plan - on a day where work stops in time! What days do you guys get together?

    Fuck I hate rats. Bastards chewed through the ventilation duct for our rangehood which wouldn't have been a problem except it is practically inaccessible. Spent an hour in the ceiling wedged in a tiny crawl space working one-armed to fix it.

    Still, I think if they had nested IN MY BIKE and chewed through stuff I'd be spewing.

    Does the issue perhaps only occur when the bike is hot? Did it start ok the next morning when it was cold?

    CREATURE thanks you for your help, my clutch problem appears to be over. now the only thing holding me back from practicing is the f**king weather. CREATURE has learned to use the forum for future assistance. and CREATURE offers special thanks to Fatt max for your assistance and advice. the next round of pies are on CREATURE
