Casualty(Sam-my 18yr old)is mortified bout his mum belly dancing & Im NOT to tell his friends

whats he worried about, my mums twice your age and dances... p/med ya Rashikas web site.

Well the fact that I have got another huge fibreglass and respray bill to save up for is probably why I won't be going beyond the end of the tarseal again.

Lost the front wheel at 10kph going through roadworks. I don't like gravel at all.

OHHHhhhhhhhhhh... shit man, see quote below.

Them tiny little sprotsbike tyre will do that to ya...

ahhhh rot... too much front brake, not powering through, lack of rear brake and incorrect leaning will do it.

Treat shingle compleatly different to the seal and its a piece a piss, be timed of it and the inevatable will happen.

Actually a mix of wider fat tyres, shorter clip on handle bars also

The wider fat rear tyre means there is more gravel under the tyre (simple maths) and makes the tyre and whole rear end move more... by itself this usually isn't a problem but, add in the shorter clip bars and you have a mix

The rear stats to move which in turn starts to move the front end and with wider bars you would have more control over it. But with short clip ons you have less so makes it harder...

Look at all trail and adventure bikes, thinner tyers and wider bars...

They aren't as bad as a Vespa's.
