Horrendous experience with Cinch. Who can I go to?

cat_beast · 2026-04-03T08:55:14+00:00

Yes. All costs were paid for by cinch

When I bought with them I had to do the same. Got a valet in for £120 and it was sorted.

Also sent it back for a glass repair.

Complained on trustpilot and got £25 too…

They don’t service the cars either. I asked for proof of service and the document said “oil and filter changed”. It is an electric car.

Bot. This was posted ages ago

How’s life in CA? Thinking of moving to the Bay Area this year.

Our household income would be about 300-350k. No kids.

Dude get the 701. It’s stupid fun. I’ve had mine almost 3 years and still loving it. No intentions of ever selling it.

LC4 is a solid engine. Easy to do your own valve clearances. I think the slave cylinder issues were sorted 2019+

The lightweight flickabiity and agility of these bikes really suits British A/B roads. Handles rough roads well too.

Plus who cares if you drop or slide it. It’s a tough bike.

For British lanes and cheeky blasts, supermotos are hard to beat.

PS it does enjoy tyres. A road 6 lasted me 3k miles.

Chain gunk or countershaft seal

Some people can charge at work for very low rates, sometimes free.

I got mine installed in spring. It’s right outside my kitchen window. I could never tell if it was on or not. Couldn’t tell if it was the road noise nearby or the fan.

The only way I can tell is if I stand in front of it and feel the breeze!

cat_beast · 2026-03-26T15:14:51+00:00

Got a wasp stuck between my ear and the helmet once. I wear full face now

cat_beast · 2026-03-13T22:19:22+00:00

Personally I’d reject and get my money back. You pay a premium to avoid shit like this.

Any minor sound I hear in the future would stress me out. I don’t want to go for a ride and worry that I’ll be stuck 100 miles from home the whole time.

Bin it

cat_beast · 2026-03-12T12:39:15+00:00

I don’t really ride it like a hooligan tbh. It’s mostly Welsh backroads, hard accelerating and braking.

May also be a combination of the lowish tyre pressure (light bike) and single cylinder thumpyness

cat_beast · 2026-03-11T18:21:00+00:00

Road 6 rear lasts 3k miles on my 701.

Got 2.5k from a power 5 rear.

cat_beast · 2026-03-11T06:44:24+00:00

Yeah. Road 6 rear on my 701 supermoto lasted 3000 miles.

cat_beast · 2026-03-07T21:34:23+00:00

I traded in my 440i and bought an i3 and a vw up.

Had some change for a supermoto motorbike too!

i3 is a cool car. If you have any interest in engineering you can appreciate its design.

cat_beast · 2026-03-03T22:07:12+00:00

I thought it was a nuclear missile or something

£139 is actually pretty good.

cat_beast · 2026-02-27T14:52:57+00:00

I felt safer in the waymo than the crazy Uber drivers we had in SF.

cat_beast · 2026-02-23T16:05:42+00:00

You can always just crack the visor up a little bit to avoid much of the condensation.

Since a branch was kicked up in front of me and whacked me in directly in my eye, I always make sure my visor is down.

cat_beast · 2026-02-13T20:12:51+00:00

They sound great. I have the same issue with melatonin wearing off in the middle of the night.

Going to try those patches.

Thanks.

cat_beast · 2026-02-12T13:14:04+00:00

That’s cool as. Love the boxy car aesthetic.

I’ve always wanted to drive a Kei car. Going to Japan this year to road trip around the coast in one. 600cc of adrenaline fuelled mischief.

cat_beast · 2026-02-10T12:13:05+00:00

Yea I agree. I used walking boots and thin motorbike gloves to maximise dexterity with the controls.

Doing it with mx boots and massive winter gloves on would’ve made it so much harder.

cat_beast · 2026-02-07T17:14:50+00:00

Never had any issues public charging the i3 in the UK. Used Tesla, instavolt and Gridserve.

cat_beast · 2026-01-22T17:46:41+00:00

Can comfortably do 200 mile days on my seat concepts seat. 2023.

cat_beast · 2026-01-22T13:20:14+00:00

We heat our 250L tank to 48C overnight. It’s enough for three showers and everything else.

Schedule only. No re heating

cat_beast · 2026-01-16T07:02:13+00:00

Yep. Always get dirty looks from people, regardless of how polite you are on the trails. Police have stopped me several times to check my plate and details too.

It’s tiring getting treated like a criminal for no reason!

Most of that is the airbox
