Re: POLICE MOBILE DYNO

Apparently been about since 2008 so had plenty of time to roll em out. Police funding is so tight I suspect they will never go national. They have much more import tasks like terrorism to be dealing with rather than find a few oversized scooters.

Re: Insurance and breakdown

I have breakdown cover for car which is personal. I rang them and it covers me for the scooter or any vehicle i use. Worth checking your car breakdown cover.

Re: This months Scootering mag...

What about the younger readers though who may not have seen the repro copy? We need to try different things to introduce the new blood into scootering. I think it is a good idea.

Re: Anyone used one of these manifolds

I've just the problem trying to get a bend for a KBA clubman. Bit the bullet and bought the full kit. Try using Loctite 5990 with a fibre gasket.

KBA Clubman

Just got a KBA Clubman exhaust to fit an iron 150/175 bored Italian barrel. It's going to need some fettling to fit. Is this normal? Thought it would be a straight forward fit.
