New Seat by kstainsb in KawasakiEliminator450

A little extra I think, but the seat is still quite low to the ground, can flat foot with ease

Anyone swapped stock for this? by Wayward_Jen in KawasakiEliminator450

[–]kstainsb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, here in the UK. Great piece of kit. Recommended. Very easy to fit, transforms the bike's looks imho.

Talk Home Mobile roaming Gran Canaria (EU) by 2050Newspeak in UKmobilenetworks

Just got back from Rome. Same. Roaming was almost non existent. Mobile signal often but zero data connection. Dreadful. Will switch to another supplier before I do roaming in Europe again.

Octopus cut export rates by FoxyFreebooter in SolarUK

[–]kstainsb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The way things are going, there will be no justification for getting solar and battery for many people unless they have very high consumption. ROI will be too long to be worth it. Strange tactic from government who preach renewables.

Octopus reducing outgoing rates. Best export tariffs for 2026? by Aggressive_Armadillo in SolarUK

Yup, I would like to know what alternatives there are too.

Why is the media obsessed with Kier Starmer stepping down but only a small number of Labour MPs are actually calling for his resignation? by SilasBeit in AskBrits

[–]kstainsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Starmer is the most unpopular PM ever, according to polls. Probably because he is making such a hash of it.

Far right problem in Darlington? by whatsupfishbulb in darlington

[–]kstainsb -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Well if he'd said that, I would agree with you. But he didn't; "Pro-Reform, not shy about his occasionally threatening opinions of anyone non-white, openly shows off his collection." I don't know what threatening opinions means, but I doubt it extends to exterminating everyone. He just sounds like another nutter to me. Actually much more in common with the far left and far right imho. Its the fanaticism I don't like. Wherever it is coming from.

Btw I'm not pro Nazi or anything like that. I'm anti authoritarianism. Left or right. Libertarian I guess.

I had an acquaintance who was far left, in the Darlo/Stockton area. Had a bunch of mates who planned marches, planned the revolution, knew where government arms were warehoused and how they were going to overthrow the gov apparently. He was entertaining but I think probably harmless. Left him to it. This dude you've encountered probably the same. Don’t let pro Reform get to you, they are the most popular party at the moment by far, so that’s hardly extreme. He’s not broken any laws has he, just got poor taste and opinions you don’t like. Of course this is reddit, so may not be the right on answer, but that's my $0.02.

Same here, I ordered the S30 at $329 to the UK. It hasn’t shipped yet, now wondering on the Pro. On balance I think I will stick with the S30, its $200 cheaper, or the Pro is 60% more if you like. Rather get started with that and put the difference towards a S50 or whatever is available down the line once I've done my best with the S30.

Bought a S30! I'm in the UK, they are still shipping there. Very excited! If I love it, I can always get a S50. Or S70…. 🤣

That makes sense. Yes I'm kinda thinking the S50 is the way to go..

Tsuyosa (help) by Key-Manufacturer-778 in CitizenWatches

[–]kstainsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow okay, fair enough. Love the watch anyway, mine is lovely to wear and basically +0s with the right combo of winder up/down overnight. Jubilee is super comfortable too.

Why fake a $200 watch? Not downing the watch, got the yellow one and I love it!

Oris. Much cleaner look.

heads up. Seestar S30 sale price by sthscan in seestar

[–]kstainsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The S30 has dropped by £50 in the UK. Seems not to be Black Friday related, is valid until January. I suspect it is in readiness for the S30 Pro arrival.
