    Why do you need to do that, unless you are complaining?

    Cheer up matey was a joke

    Just got back from Big Bikes where i got me some DriRider Nordic boots for $170. Same as these http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-255918469.htm

    So you bastards won your little battle and have robbed me of my savings

    Happy?


    But Big Bikes is a nice place shame its closing. Saw my first Hyo 250 GTS which i think is much better looking than the comet. Shame the salesman tried to sell me shinkos when i said i was looking at new tyres and told me that BT45 were not dual compound when im 95% sure they are! Other than that great little store.

    Only problem now is i don't have a bike to ride. Just took the fairing in to get a new tab made up and i won't be able to pick it up until thursday or friday And the cage has no WOF

    They are. The Bridgestone website says so
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    A very nice intro by the police to law enforcement for you. It's much nicer getting a warning!

    Good luck trying to tell him that! Because his little website where he gets tyres from said nothing about dual compound he reckons they aren't. He was a good bloke and i would happily deal with him again (in fact he gave better service than any other bike store i have walked in to) but his tyre selling skills are letting him down.

    Telling me to get Shinkos over BT45's or sport demons is just plain silly!

    You sure won't want to ride with anything that has laces - they can get caught up on the footpegs, and then whoopsie, over you go

    Don't get the point, what the hell is there to complain about? He was doing his job.

    I have a scar on my R ankle - left there by a gear shift pedal that went all the way in to the bone when some silly old fart drove his car into my first bike. Cause I wasn't wearing boots. I was lucky. Leg didn't break and the bone didn't get infected.
    Boots would have saved the pain and a bone deep hole in the leg for six weeks...
    Get some boots. Cop was right this time.

    Yeah.... that prick Patrick even had the cheek to pay for my petrol in cash at Bulls when we were riding to Wellington for the bikeoi, when Mobil Bulls EFTPOS was playing up.
    This gives you some idea what the bastard cops on this site are like.....

    Read the 3rd post down on this page

    Laces usually get tucked away. When i did my BHS i had trouble with laces catching on anything they could!

    Nup... he didn't even do that!
    I did, however, shout him some tucker at the "scottish restaurant" next door to the Mobil.... there were no donut shops handy
