    Brexit, for once some facts.

    So what if the EU, and Germany continue to grow as economies (which they including us now all are) and in 5 years ... we're not... the poor are worse of, the funding for the NHS is worse, our universities aren't getting as many over seas applicants, companies have moved their European HQ's from...

    There are a lot of experts, in a lot of fields who would disagree with your optimistic view on this.

    Electric bike 1500w

    you do realise most serial killers probably aren't caught too don't you? Anyway, you're really are a hero, and of course someone that forum members should take legal advise from :) Because if you don't get caught, what's the problem?

    Electric bike 1500w

    soundwave, you're dangerously ignorant on the subject you're talking about. Legal bikes can put out 700w peak power. Your dongle doesn't give you any more power. It removes the speed limit on the assistance which makes it illegal to be used on or offroad in the UK. So yes you probably won't...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    you do realise you're now arguing with me about the definition of a fact? I'm simply saying that what you've said "brexit is happening" isn't a hard fact as your described it. Currently nothing is happening. Nothing has happened since June, that a long time of nothing. A50 is planned, and...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    you're suggesting something happening in the future is a HARD FACT. Really, that's naive in the very least. A50 will be triggered, I'm pretty sure that's likely. Currently Brexit isn't happening, its planned, but its not happening. It happening isn't a fact. Sorry to burst your bubble.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the fear of Labour closing Sellafield, or UKIP in Stoke was clearly more than the potential of Brexit, which lets be honest many still think won't happen.

    brilliant, I've never won an argument / debate on the internet before, I didn't think it was even possible. Nice way to start a Friday, thanks :)

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Another interesting relevant map.... Trade Balance of EU Countries in 2016 https://twitter.com/amazingmap/status/833923692518313984 Does show nicely that the EU doesn't stop you exporting effectively. Germany also confirmed as fastest growing economy in G7, overtaking UK...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Hate to break it to you, but it might be seen another way. Copeland, was all about Nuclear Power... nothing to do with Brexit, or Europe. Stoke... Labour put up a pro-remain candidate (all be it one who is now currently saying he respects the will of the people) against UKIP who threw...

    KTM eBikes - a bit of history

    We thought some of you might find this interesting. KTM have been making eBikes since 1994, so we thought we'd share some of the history. http://www.flidistribution.co.uk/blog/ktm-ebikes---a-bit-of-history

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    possibly not... probably not. But at some point he's going to have to take responsibility for his own actions. Blaming another group for his inability to find employment isn't going to lead to a happy and fulfilled life. What's next, once the immigrants have gone, will he blame the people...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    agreed. I've worked in schools and some 6th form centres in places like Oldham. Any 17 year old who claims they can't get a job because of immigration is simply mis informed, and Farage is part of the reason for that. I bet if I or anyone else spent a week with that lad, we'd be able to...

    Its not religious though is it, its cultural... which is an important difference in my book.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    also... the reason they can compete (and this is motorbike and pushbike KTM) with the Japanese is because 99% of the workforce in the factories are cheap foreign labour who come to Austria to work. The brands are a big European manufacturing success story, with a BIG emphasis on the European...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    They were the same company, starting making push bikes in 1964, so not really a spin off.... but it got split up and sold off in the 90s, and since then all bits have grown massively. So there is now no real connection to the motorbike side. Except that they are still both in Mattighofen...

    There is so much information your missing here, that its hard to know where to start. KTM Motorbikes are a totally separate company to KTM Bike Industries. I am an individual, I just have a KTM logo because that's what registered here on this forum, because I'm a trade member. My company...
