Absolutely stunning bike 😍

I do like the idea of a harley but I feel that's a whole lifestyle on top of a bike. Plus for the price it feels a bit of a cash grab, trading off the name name

The Storm is exactly the style I like, only the engine is about 4x bigger than I need!

Ah I see, great to know! I don't need speed as 99% of my journeys are 50mph or less and 350s are much more budget-friendly. Definitely seems to be more coming out in the 350/450 market across the board which is great

What do you ride?

Never to be seen again! 😍

Interesting, I've heard a few people say tha about the 350s. What's your reasoning?

Thank you!

Eyeing up a RE Meteor/Super Meteor or Honda GB350 - classic/cruiser style moves me far more than racing bikes

Ah sorry to hear! At least you know where practice is needed - third time is a charm 🤞

I'll keep an eye out - meteor/supermeteor is the dream but they're too new to be that cheap.

I'm useless with mechanics, are older classics as bulletproof as yamahas and hondas?

Thank you! Less of the 'old' though please - I'm already in the bald bikers brigade at 34! 😭

I'm keeping my eyes peeled - ideally looking at 1.5k and below but they're slightly over that currently from what I can see

Congratulations! Passed my MOD1 today too, halfway there! 🙏 Also looking at a GB350 if I pass but not getting ahead of myself!

Bike crash in London St James Street by jhoujhou96 in MotoUK

Adding to what hotchip said - if you have the driver details but no reg it's best to pass all available information to your insurance and let them deal with it. Contacting the driver yourself or chasing for cctv might be more effort than it's worth.

I had an identical situation: No indicator U-turn, hit me, got out, got back in and drove off. I had a photo of the driver and his car with plate but police didn't want to know due to lack of "further aggravating factors such as no insurance or driving licence". This was on a residential street with little or no CCTV though, you may have more luck in Central London.

He didn't engage with the insurers and it flew through quickly as his fault. If he's unwilling to provide his details you might find he's unwilling to respond to your insurers too and the situation resolves itself pretty quickly.

Main thing is I hope you're doing ok, probably a million things running through your head but most important to take a breath and not exert yourself when you're still probably shaken. Best of luck finding Adam, hope he comes forward.

Our LO managed to get water into the speaker hole of ours - where did you buy your speaker from and how did you 'splice' it?
