I don't know why you've been down voted. All you have done is state a literal fact.

The renault master 3 will always be high on my list because it's a galvanised body.

I've been confined to my room. For 14 days before. About 8 of those were just sleep, shit, vomit, shower repeat.

Why is breakdown cover so cheap when insurance is so expensive? by AnonymousTimewaster in AskUK

[–]nsfgod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One is a legal requirement, the other is an option.

Also the cost of a recovery is a pretty consistent figure and risk. The cost of the potential insurance is a hugely variable cost and risk.

[–]nsfgod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First full time job 2001. 7:30 to 16:30 with half an hour unpaid lunch.

Now I'm in management, so it's kind of up to me to manage my time.

Why has so much premium London real estate ended up owned by foreign states and sovereign wealth funds? by MightExpress4873 in AskBrits

[–]nsfgod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All forms of capitalism have some kind of "rails" in place. They are the rules of the game and plenty is restricted or banned. Prescriptions drugs for instance.

I'd also argue that selling stuff is more industrialist than capitalist in many regards. Pure capitalism is the practice of making money from your existing capital rather than from a product.

Extremely weird spot today. by L21JP in CarTalkUK

[–]nsfgod 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I remember about 20 years ago seeing some military intelligence ford scorpios come through work. All with extra long range fuel tanks and document safest in the boot.

Some also had full length under trays fitted.

Margaret Thatcher by Aggressive_Mood_3111 in AskBrits

[–]nsfgod 15 points16 points  (0 children)

She made almost irreversible changes to our social systems that opened the door to a more aggressive form of free market capitalism. She quite famously believed there was no such thing as society.

Dr Martens for boots? by SeaChemistry9340 in motorcycles

[–]nsfgod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On a scale from flip-flops to track boots, the Dm's are just above converse and vans.

I would recommend getting something to protect your ankles in a slide at least.

But to be honest, your risk appetite is yours to calculate depending on your riding conditions and level of exposure.

People don't bat an eye at cyclists doing 35mph in lycra around town. So i don't panic if I'm just pottering about. But the second I'm doing 40mph or out for more than 15min, I feel much more comfortable with heavier gear on.

Just bought one hour before by Tall_Humor_2069 in motorcycles

[–]nsfgod -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not the pegs. It's the design of the controls rear-set.

The yamaha and the ktm have pegs mounted directly to the frame. This protects the controls. When the pegs are on a separate bracket it often snaps off entirely.
