Plain black (UK10) would suit me a treat! And go with my Leatt neck brace - nice one, Leatt!

And if anyone in Durban is interested, I have stock locally. P .

You could try some Jeyes Fluid on the stains. It contains mild carbolic acid and works quite well if the dirt isn't too ingrained. P .

Does anyone have a spare CO2 bottle knocking about that they'd like to turn into ready cash? I don't like the idea of paying rental on an item that I only use once in a blue moon, so am looking to buy a bottle to buy, that I can use at leisure and take for a refill when required. Anyone? P .

Not anymore. It's based on the camo used by US forces in Gulf War 1, also known as 'chocolate chip' or 'US Desert 6 colour camo', it was first used around 1980 or so. It was phased out by the introduction of new desert cam around 1993/4. In Gulf War 2 (Operation Iraqi Freedom) it was issued...

Fixed. :mwink: P .

We find a very similar situation in Skydiving - it's not the appy jumpers that burn in, it's the 200 - 400 jump 'skygods' that bounce. They get windgat and complacent, think they know everything, and start pushing the boundaries and taking chances. I've been riding (on the road) since 1985...

Obviously no white Camry in this neighbourhood. Or dudes selling stuff between the cars at traffic lights either, for that matter! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XihQeZpwqpE P .

Grego, Phone one of your local COR Testing Centres - they should be able to give you all the info you require. They may even assist you - for a fee, of course. P .

I have 2 Optimate 3's (for the bikes) and 2 Bentons - a BX-1 and a BX-2 for the Audi and the Cruiser respectively. The BX-2 is well worth the money - Bike2Bike have them for sale at much less than the C-Tek. P .

I got mine from Ryder - ask Johnny in the 'Spares' department to sort you out. P .

Started riding in 1980 - seems like a lifetime ago... First bike was an old 'banana pipe' MR 50, progressing through various IT's, PE's, XT's, RMX's and KDX's. Road bikes have always been Kawasaki - GPZ 550, GPZ600R, ZXR636's. Now on R1200GS and ZXR636R. P .

Your 2 best options locally are OptiMate 3 (I have 2, 1 on each 'bike) or Benton BX-1 (Benton is similar to the C-Tek range, but at half the price). I have a Benton BX-2 on my Land Cruiser, which is their top-off-the-range model, with more options/versatility than the BX-1. I also work...

Fixed. :laughing4: P .

I'll stick to jumping out of them, rather than over them, thanks very much! :eek7: P .

I have Optimate 3's on my bikes, and Benton BX-2's on my cars and the Land Cruiser. The Bentons are equivalent to the C-Tek at half the price, but you don't need a BX-2 you can get by with a BX-1 for your bike. The Optimates are a lifesaver for my bike batteries. I work overseas and am only...

Good question! Anyone with any more info on this? I'll be picking up a XMoto in a few weeks time - as a town/fun 'bike - and would like to know if I need to look for any recall notices... P .

Check your PM. P .

Good advice, get yourself checked out - my wife is recovering from C4/C5 fusion surgery, resulting from an untreated injury she received in an accident 15 years ago. The neurosurgeon said she may well have ended up in a wheelchair if she'd had another accident. Definitely worth the effort of...

They do, why do you think I wear a parachute... :( Glad you're OK, VIVI - voorspoed with the recovery! :thumleft: P .
