I prefer to have a clutch, it give a lot more control.... well it does on my bike. I think my gearbox is a constant mesh sequential dog box, and when changing gear I NEED a clutch (ok sometime I go down a few gears without when slowing to a stop, but only when its cold and using the clutch...

yes, really, if you dont then you will end up making those mistakes over and over. like today, I went up to box hill on my bike, some of the roads were quite gravely in the centre where I ride. so on the way back I remembered that the bike nearly ditched on the gravel so rode at the edge...

umm, about 20-30 yards in my instructors car, about all of 5-6 feet with leg power on my bike.

hopefully I will be going to a few. waynne, in the bhp peformance show, it says that there will be public track time, do you think they will allow bikes? as I should have a new bike by then.

hmmm, beer or fuel. well...... really... in all honesty... would say fuel. but then again, how much money are we talking here? As I can get about 170 miles out of a tank if I take it easy, and that only costs 13 pound for V power. insidentally, HDI you use V power dont you? as you can...

if anyone is interested in my bike I would say in the next couple of days as I need to sell it to get a new bike, and It might have to go to a shop :/

I do agree with that, that it is a bit much to imprison someone for driving a bit fast, but in all honesty, in a car you have a bit more control if it starts to go, whereas on a bike you have very little control if it starts to let go of the road. all in all in my opinion, yes, he was an idiot...

ah K well thats where I am wrong, I wasnt sure on the speed limit and have never been down the road so I know nothing about how fast you can go down it. but in all honesty, doing 122 with a young kid on the back is very stupid, what if the kid fell off? I dont think he would be getting up...

lol no offence, just was asking the question why you didnt want an older one, probably came out a bit wrong. but yeah, the 2000-2001 206's are good. the 1.6xs are quite fast aswell

I ride a bike and think that doing 122 in a 30 (think it was a 30) is WAAYYYY to fast even for a 'busa. ok they will do 187 (not 200 their limited) but you dont need to use that power where there is a chance of hurting yourself or someone else. And with his son on the back you would have...

in my town? theres the normal chav type with the shopping cart with a dusbin for an exhaust and lexus lights [they really dont look good on punto's and saxo's but they do look good on a ........LEXUS] there is one or two nicly done up cars but the general tuners are 17-18 y/o's with saxo's...

well I havnt done much more on the car side of things, been trying to get my bike licence first. but all has not gone well, I failed the bike one 2 damn times, first cause I forgot my shoulder check on my u turn, an the second time for going through a set of lights when amber (he said red, but...

how come you have such an adversion to cars before 2000? some of them are really good (this is a sweeping generalisation not just for pugs)
