Tillson, the police are clearly overstretched but do you think my case required a lengthy investigation? The bike was stolen on day one. On day two, the same bike was reported to the police as found. You don't need to be a detective to work this one out. This is the seventh time we have been...

Alan, thanks advice much appreciated and I may well take this route. This incident is not the first taste I have had of police incompetence (in my opinion) and it is now time to take issue. Nobody would wish to be without a force and I appreciate their efforts on the most serious crimes. The...

I'm absolutely lost for words over this. When I was interviewed by the DC earlier in the week, the first thing he said after looking at my past notes was, I see you are very unhappy with the police. Too bloody right I said. I cannot express on this forum what I truly think about the dreadful...

d8veh that is most interesting, no menion from of that at all. We have to remember that it was the Ebayers friend that found the bike and not the Ebayer himself. Still it does not explain why he did not get in touch. An interesting comment passed to me by the police from the finder is that he...

I've been keeping a little quite over this since the original Jonathans find as I have been busy trying to find its location. I knew from the photos immediately that this was the KTM stolen from me. I reported the finding to the Police and was told to make an appointment for the following day...

Eddie, brilliant. I'm off to the fridge for a beer having just won my own bet. It was many months ago you were gloating over this new pre production bike. I said to myself that this would most likely be the one you end up with. Excellent choice in my opinion. I'm convinced after a few decent...

I see this sort of litter bug behaviour regularly. I just cannot understand what is mentally wrong with these people. The video is excellent by the way.

Someone please give me a blanket. I feel very very sleepy all of a sudden!

It is a shame that the UK could not assist. Their loss. When your sorted it would be great to meet up for a ride. Sunshines best but I'll go whatever the weather.

The refund is great news, like you say it did you a favour and opened up the e-bike world. Shall miss your BH excursion stories. I'm sure you will find takers for any parts you have that are no longer of use to you. Looking forward to part 2.

Never to be seen again?

Flecc I agree with regard the taxi's getting their noses put out. 2 or 3 years ago we had someone start a Tuk tuk business in Brighton. They were great for nipping into town and popular with the tourists. The Tuk tuks were of course anything but green. It was the taxi firms that saw to their...

It seems to me that the powers that be look to seizing and prosecution as a solution to anything they dislike. We are constantly bashed for using fossil fuels. Why not put efforts in to make these or similar vehicles legal and help clean up our air supply. The EPAC laws are a bit out of touch...

Its nothing to do with safety. Enterprise is not allowed in this country unless you pay the insurance companies and authorities most of your profits.

Thanks, all sounds feasible but surely less teeth, more wear per tooth. Is this not the case. Also, how do you change the gearing if you wish to. Are there a range of sprockets to choose from. None of it sounds right to me, I've had two of the smallest rear sprockets snap in half so far this...

Presumably these exchanged units are reconditioned, whats the cost of these against a new one?

How do we get a Mk2 if nobody buys the Mk1's. As far as the small front sprocket on the Mk2 I can only serve to increase chain wear. Why a small one? does anyone know.

Anything he likes, lawn mower or cycle repairs, run a machine shop, gardening. Who knows!

You'll need a good solicitor if you choose the 50 mph key.

You are right, a few local ish specialists. I guess given time they may spring up around the country. Lets hope so.
