    Trangia Fuel Bottle

    I've used Trangia cooking stoves for years and they're very good. They produce a 1 litre fuel bottle which I use to carry Meths in. I got to wondering if it's safe for carrying petrol in as that 1 litre would be a handy little extension to range. I couldn't find anything on Trangia's website...

    Erbauer rack crate.

    I have an Erbauer Connecx Modular toolbox that I use for carting my amateur radio equipment around when I operate in the field and it's proved very capable. In B&Q today I spotted a crate that was part of the same system. My armoured topbox wasn't working out so I dropped £25 and brought one...

    Honda computer, it says NO!

    Popped into the company (bastard shit show) which holds the Honda dealership on the island to speak to their parts chap. Wanted to see if I gave them a genuine Honda parts code if they could get the bits I wanted. Sadly because Honda don't sell the CT in Euro-land we can't have the parts. "This...

    Dog leg brake lever.

    Has anyone fitted a short dog leg front brake lever? I'd like to try fitting one as I like to ride covering the front brake with a couple of fingers and I'm finding that the standard set up doesn't fit my smaller sized hands.

    Paddock bike

    I took a ride up to the paddock to soak up some of the atmosphere and look at the shines. Spotted this while wondering around. A brief enquiry from a passing mechanic revealed it belongs to none other than James Hillier. Luckily he was next door and available so we had a quick chat. It has an...

    Honda Genuine Parts...😳

    Three oil changes coming up, Super Cub 600 mile and 100 mile on the CTs. £10.00 for an oil filter is a tad steep but equal to a black americano and a sausage bagel. However, £5.07 for an O ring??? Fuck me Honda! I'm curious what others are paying in the UK, is this comparable or is this the...

    Beer or go play?

    One of those days that just tripped along, coffee with the girlfriend, then up to the Grandstand to grab her marshals pack, Ramsey pier to watch the Boeing P8 fly over, then a bit of a wander and home. It's at that point you think "beer or go play out?"

    In the Balance

    I set myself the challenge this year of gaining my class 2 heavy goods vehicle licence and my partner decided to learn to ride a motorcycle... She can ride a bicycle and has done since learning as a child but motorcycling isn't coming to her. To be able to ride on the road she needs to complete...

    Recaliation and customer satisfaction.

    The UK importers last batch of bikes are the new Gen 2s (2023 model). Their engineer that conducts the recalibration of the speedometers from kph to mph noticed a minor difference but didn't anticipate any issues. Unfortunately this resulted in a 25% error. As soon as the company became aware...

    Coffee, cake and the first scratch...

    Popped out for a bit of a jolly as the weather was glorious and herself was meeting the girls from the office. Got fuel and started with some twisty tarmac and one of those back roads with grass and a stream down the middle. This was followed by the first decent hill and 60mph on the gps...

    More gentrification than mod.

    After an evening of staring at CT125 pictures and videos, I'd got the thought in my head that some of the additional metal work would look good powder coated. Then seeing what a lovely job one of the other members made with high temperature paint I was sold on the idea. My partner wasn't sure if...

    A secret at the Victory Cafe.

    There is a saying on the island, Traa-dy-liooar, it means time enough. The pace of life is very much dictated by this which, is usually ok unless you need a tradesman quickly but that is another story. In the spirit of this my partner and I finally got round to visiting the Victory Cafe up on...

    Love at first video viewing...

    After seeing a video of the new CT125 while looking for Super Cub information I was smitten and knew I needed one in my life. Then followed the crushing realisation that Honda hate me and for that reason wouldn't be releasing them into Europe. Then elation on discovering another YouTube video of...
