Re: Remade Side Panels

FYI, 'Ricambio' isn't a brand, it's just Italian for 'spare parts'.

Re: Speedo sensor

If it's an active sensor (as used on SIP speedos and others) you don't need a magnet at all. It will sense the disc bolts for example, if they are in its range. You just set the speedo for the number of bolts or whatever per wheel revolution.

Re: New emission rules in France

The bottom line is that scooters without the Euro 3 emissions standard (or higher) being marked on the registration document / certificate of conformity will not be allowed into Paris weekdays 8am to 8pm from 1 April this year. I'm pretty sure that means that all pre-2000 2-wheelers are affected. Mo...

Re: Scawalbe Sportsman tyres

Schwalbe don't make motorcycle tyres any longer, after all the problems of the last couple of years. Any that you find still for sale will be old stock. Take a look at this FB page for more info:

Re: SCK

My experience of them is pretty good, but their UK agent (and collaborator on some products) is Mark Broadhurst.
