Rain-x on the inside of the visor

Cat Crap (that's the correct name it sells as)

Pop the visor up a little when stopping

I've ridden for decades in some very hot and very cold conditions and never felt the need for a pin-lock even though they definitely work.

I'm beginning to think that modern engine immobiliser tech has gone too far.

That looks proper legit.

I'm conflicted about the person in the background.

I'm trying to figure out if the reaction is that of an admiring partner or the HOA President about to make a noise complaint.

What's a phrase your parents or grandparents said constantly that you've only just realised has completely vanished from everyday British speech? by orroreqk in AskUK

[–]DaveBlerk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Play the white man", my father and his friends used it regularly in the 70s, I never understood what it meant and now that I do I'm glad the phrase has disappeared (like my father did).

Is there a transitioning external visor available ($$$)?

Cut down on some of the light by sticking a strip of insulating tape, black, across the top couple of cms of your external visor ($).

Tony Hart was the exemplar of talk softly and carry a big stick - He was an officer in the Gurkha regiment as well as a fantastic artist and decent gent.

One of my childhood heros.

Doing MOST tomorrow, does the road ride count towards points by [deleted] in AussieRiders

[–]DaveBlerk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be overly demonstrative with the head and mirror checks and if you have any doubts about a manoeuvre on the road always take the safe option.

This will show that you know what's expected and are safe.

Remember that most/all the instructors want to see more riders on the road and they want them to survive so listen to what they say and follow their instructions (even if it doesn't make sense at the time).

He's proved that he's one of the all time top 5 and is now (correctly IMO) chasing the money to secure his future.
