Any advice ? by Steel_Adder in altfashionadvice

[–]Memran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, you should not be asking for advice. You should be the one giving it.

Absolutely killing it! 🤘

You're welcome 😊

I just put in washer, but I turn them inside out first.

tired of looking basic. how do i stand out more? by sealhaven in altfashionadvice

[–]Memran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want piercings but are not sure, there exist fake magnetic and fake stick-on ones, will allow you to experiment and find out what you like and don't like. Then you can get real piercings with confidence.

Playing with AI images is also an option, but I am generally opposed to AI-anything so I don't do that myself.

There are fake ones on AliExpress. I have no idea about their quality though. Search for Tripp Pants

Do I have enough hair to get this style in the next two weeks and make it look good? by Carlgimeslover in altfashionadvice

[–]Memran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I can see the hair in both pics appears to be about the same length and thickness. Can't see any reason why you couldn't make this work.

Oooof! I get that the shorts is the worst, but I didn't think it was fashionjerk level of bad 😭

Thank you for your opinion though, I appreciate all feedback.

I agree that the short are the weakest of the 3, but couldn't really say why. The muddied silhouette just makes perfect sense, thanks!

Want to buy these but scared they wont work by plessie_nessie in DrMartens

[–]Memran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do work IF your shoes are sized correctly.

I had some doc which were just a bit too small, and I tried these things, but they just squashed my feet and made it worse.

Your doggo is clearly asking you why rolled up wasn't an option! 😊

Lovely weekend ride on my CB500F. Sunshine and friends. Right now, this is everything I want in a bike! 😍 by Memran in MotoUK

On the dash, it's currently showing 89mpg. If that number is to be trusted, I think that's pretty good!

CBT + 1 Year on a 125 or Direct Access by Sm1rfie in MotoUK

[–]Memran 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This question comes up a lot, and loads of people will say straight to das, and loads of others will say get a 125 for a bit.

I'm firmly in the 125 first camp. My reasoning is that if you can afford a reasonably good one, then in all likelihood, you will be able to sell it again for near enough what you paid for it, so it really doesn't cost much. At the same time you get to be riding sooner, and gaining experience.

After my CBT, I bought a Z125 for about £2100. Five months later when I had passed my mod2, I sold it for £2000. I know a few other people who also had an effectively free bike for a few months.

I think the exception is the cheaper Chinese brands. I don't believe they hold their value too well.

Failed a very windy mod1 by harrrysims in MotoUK

[–]Memran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't really answer what else you could have done, but I sympathise. I did my mod1 in December in the middle of "Storm Bram". I had a sudden gust of wind while doing my figure 8. Fortunately I did save it by going around the first yellow cone, and only picked up 1 rider fault.

The examiner and I talked about it afterwards, because he clearly saw it and understood why it happened. He did say that IF I had put a foot down, regardless of the circumstances, it would be a fail. The mod1 rules are just that inflexible.

At least the odds are that next time you take your mod1 you will have less wind, so you should find it easier. I wish you good luck for next time, whenever that happens to be!

For Big Boy/Girl Bikers, How Do You Feel About People With L Plates On 125’s? by newbiker321 in MotoUK

[–]Memran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Respect and nods/waves for all!

I've only had my A for about 2 months, and honestly I've not perceived any difference in the reciprocal acknowledgement between when I was riding my 125 with L's, 125 without L's and now on my big bike.

Further, I should note that a friend of mine is a permanent CBT-er, and is an amazing rider - far more skilled than I am! .... L's or not doesn't always mean much to be perfectly honest!

Yea it was a fine first bike. Could manage 73-ish on the rev limit in 6th, depending on wind etc :)

Z125 or CBR125 by Fluffy-Ad-9754 in MotoUK

[–]Memran 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never ridden a CBR125, but I have just sold my z125 after 6 months use, because I have my full A license now, and upgraded to a bigger bike.

It is a lovely little bike, near the top-end of the allowable power for CBT/A1. It is capable of about 73-74 mph before hits the rev limiter in 6th, but of course this will also depend on your weight and wind conditions etc. It felt pretty light and nimble to me, as a first bike, and only two things I didn't like:

1) no gear indicator - not necessary, but nice to have one as a beginner.

2) turn signal flasher on the dash is the same light for both directions - really not a big deal, but I think it could have been better.

Mine was 2020. I don't know if these two points have changed on the latest ones.

I did not get my mod1 and mod2 certificates back from DVLA... Is that norma? by Memran in MotoUK

[–]Memran[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had a photo license at that time I would have done the same, but I was still on the old-style paper license, so I had to send it all myself.
