    Thunder Horn

    I got a Stevel Nautilus Compact for my motorbike (uses a mini compressor for a VERY loud air horn - almost as loud as the 'proper' air horn on my truck!) Was going to wire it in to a special switch to really scare the people that had just tried to cut me up etc (when I was out of the way...

    Ride To Work Scheme Skews The Market

    As I say, it's not ANY salary level, as it would be of no benefit at all to me. But yes, does cover most. Tax Credits also only applies to working people too I believe. Then there's scrapage scheme, which to my mind was so much more of a farce, as it basically subsidised the car sales...

    Ride To Work Scheme Skews The Market

    Unfortunately, if you read the end of my post, they can't because some **** with some big bolt croppers has probably taken it to a cash converters in the next town :(. However, I was aware of this as I'm aware of the way the system works and had done plenty of research when I was in the...

    Optibike 3 Months Review (short)

    Even at 800W rather than the lower setting, I presume you can still stick the bike in a high gear and add to it with foot power. Hell, for off-road I'm generally more knackered after a (motorbike) enduro than a (mountain bike) XC race with both the same duration. I don't know the laws in...

    11000 watts/60 mph bike on ebay

    jbond - you don't have to be the same 'jbond' from the notobikeparkingcharges lot do you? I'm impressed so many people on here work on "the law is the law". I know a few police people and they themselves happily break some laws, especially traffic ones. Similarly, people have been found guilty...
