    Helmet

    I had a blue one.....
  2. And that other forum dumped him on me as some sort of punishment Marcel!

    Helmet

    I had a Griffin Clubman back in the 70's......they were great for the time.

    Helmet

    I used Shoei for years......but the prices kept going up and up. In 2016 I read reviews on HJC which said they were designed around the Shoei head shape and were a lot more reasonable in price. So I ordered one and sure enough it was very much like the Shoei.......though the finish, quietness and interior wasn't as good. No doubt the Shoei is better......but there's no way it's 3 times better in terms of the price differential. And in some cases the HJC was getting a higher safety rating than the Shoei. I'll be getting another HJC next year without a doubt.

    My HJC is 6 years old now......I'll replace it next year!

    Helmet

    Put that on and you'd be a Dead Man Walking Saul.
  7. Not at all.....the point has been raised in the past about pics being "enhanced".
  8. That's rare! He'll be lucky to see much more than 25mpg out of that!

    About 5 to 7 years life they reckon on a helmet isn't it?

    Bike in a box

    Exactly! As you get older you've got to just go for it......you're in The Last Chance Saloon! Bit like this forum really!

    How did you end up having such a long break between the Sukida and RE?
  12. He's got potential for sure!

    Bike in a box

    Were parts available?
  14. Fred's backdrops in the Welsh Valleys don't look like anything I've ever seen in Wales. My view was it's OK to enhance a pic but those are Mawsley levels of enhancement. In his pics he made his POS Vespa on a back lane look like a fucking MV Agusta in Monte Carlo!
  15. Yeh......under an alias!
  16. My personal feeling is if you need to brighten an image up a bit because of bad light etc.....that's fine! However, if you take it to the extreme of making a Toxic Waste Dump look like some sort of Tropical Caribbean Paradise then it's gone too far! Because it's now turned into a Mawsley Special. As always, we'll do it democratically and the majority can decide! Poll runs for 24 hours so place your vote and give your thoughts on it!
  17. I think it rained once in the 4 months I was there......and not very much.
  18. That was taken in La Manga when I first got here. As you know, there's no mud down there!
  19. I came close to going off that ledge.....only saw it at the last moment. From what I can recall I dragged it round on the spot.....the XT350 was only about 150kg.
  20. We still got to have that Poll to see whether your Mawsley Specials are admissible. What you think @Six30?

    My Himalayan

    You're looking pretty well for 57 Saul......you should see the state on most of this lot on here!
