Well 500 miles in I am well pleased with the Scottoiler. I normally clean and lube the chain every 400/500 miles as that seems to be the sweet spot for the CBF. So went out to check and maybe do just that this morning and don’t need to. The chain is still in adjustment and pretty clean and well lubricated. I have washed the bike in the interim but the fling doesn’t seem too bad, definitely no worse than using normal chain lube. I did have to modify the way I wired the oiler in as it was switched with the ignition and well that obviously worked, I then had to turn the Oiler on every time I rode. It’s supposed to work automatically every time the bike moves so I had to change it to being wired directly to the battery. No big deal and with that done it works seamlessly now and supposedly causes minimal draw on the battery. I am genuinely well pleased with the results, I was very skeptical about auto lubers after the disaster I narrowly avoided with the Lubeman POS oiler. In the meantime a very generous chap has sent me this for my Hornet. It’s the top of the range Scottoiler with screen and remote controls. I am having the Hornet serviced at the main dealers next week, after that I am going to fit this eSystem to it. Very cool bit of functional kit. Looking forward to it.

You won’t last that long way to tightly wrapped.

Snitches get stitches rainbow drawers.

Its better than what we had before and pretty clear. First half of the year is the year itself and the second half is plus 50. So this year is 25 and 75.

indicates year of registration. 73 plate is the second haif of 2023

Oh dear is that really the best you have

Yes that's what they wanted to charge me for auto renewal and why the thread is titled Robbing Barstewards

Vance and Hines isn't that code for Harley/Triumph tax. Spendy shit for shiny bikes.

I don't pay Euros FFS. My policy was £165. Oh and I don't finance anything with the exception of my house but almost everybody has to do that

I don't really know, not much of a problem where I live but is a problem in more densely populated areas of the UK. Also Britain is way more densely populated in general than Canada I would guess.

Market value pre agreed as far as I know. £5200 for the bike this year. Less excess of course.

That was weak, you feeling okay

Spider?

Does it have a skull and crossbones or a Screaming Eagle on it?

I know it's never a surprise as they do it every year but it doesn't hurt to call the robbing barstewards out. Bennetts fully comp renewal for my 73 plate Hornet CB750 £454.00 Hastings Direct for the same cover £165.00. I called Bennetts to cancel the renewal and they gave me a new quote of £365. Just seems a strange way to go about their business.

Do ya like it or no Bob?

Don't go wanking yourself into a foam over her she is a Lezzer and won't be interested. Hell of a rugby player though.

Thought you would be watching that with your joggers around your ankles.

She did . Brilliant advert for the way the game should be played.

It’s because you’re to old, take the hint before you fuck yourself up. I made it to 42 but am willing to admit I went on too long. Your mind may be in the game but Father Time has other plans. Not being a twat here, but rugby is not a forgiving sport when you get old and brittle.

True but Botts plays on the edge and that sort of thing is a risk. Wouldn't change a thing how she goes about it though. Her attitude reminds me of Marler. Botts is the best of 4 world class props IMHO. Morwenna Talling had a great game too, I know her family well, and knew her a little as a kid. Englands defence won that I reckon, fantastic and very entertaining game. Nice to have some sporting good news for a change.

Absolutely, great game
