I have them turned off. I guess Dropbox has stopped their free public hosting if the image no longer works.

Do you never ride when there's daylight?

I do, although I do miss those late night hoons on empty country roads.

Summer is nearly here though, so should be all good.

BTW WTF is with your signature?

What's wrong with it now?

Looks like you made it in PowerPoint... Proper 90's style.

Well I've had it since 2004, except when I had the bike one for the past year.

At least it isn't image not found now

It isn't much better though

This makes me happy

My rider 400 is still broken (after approx 10 uses) and I'm having little success in getting tomtom to repair it.

Earlier, I noticed it wasn't holding charge, so took the cover off and discovered that the wires had all pulled out of the battery!

Might explain why it has been so crappy. It's never been dropped, so no idea how that could have happened.

I've ordered a new battery to see it it'll get it working again.

I used one of these under my rear seat. Can't go far wrong for under £9.

**EDIT** Oh wait, sorry, a charger? Or just a USB socket?

I've ordered one of these, where are you taking power from?

AndyCr15 · 13 Apr 2017 at 06:40

The license plate light.

I'll do the same.

It's dull and cloudy here with a predicted 50% chance of rain.

Kreeeee · 13 Apr 2017 at 13:07

Mid twenties here with horizon to horizon blue skies.

**** sake, my brand new M7RR rear tyre has a puncture, only positive is it's right in the middle of the tyre, it's also completely flat.

What's the best way to fix it? Repair myself or have a garage do it? Are those self repair kits reliable?

Captain · 14 Apr 2017 at 11:56

TallPaul_S · 14 Apr 2017 at 11:56

Self repair if you need to, to get to a garage, but ultimately get it plugged from the inside by a garage.

tom_e · 14 Apr 2017 at 11:57

The DIY mushroom plugs are supposed to be pretty good, but personally if you can strip the wheel off and get it to a garage I'd get a proper repair done for the £20 or so it'll cost.

TallPaul_S · 14 Apr 2017 at 11:58

Yeah the proper repairs are good for the life of the tyre, that should be no issue.

Captain · 14 Apr 2017 at 12:31

Just phoned the garage 2 minutes away, he said he'll take the tyre off and do a full repair for £20.

Craig321 · 14 Apr 2017 at 13:47

What speed rating is the tyre (out of interest)?
