    Today I turned invisible no less than 3 times!!! All 3 times I was poodling through town when I turned invisible approaching side junctions, not sure how I manage it, 6'3" tall, big bike, headlight on !!

    It wouldn't be so bad if they mouthed sorry or put up their hand to acknowledge their ineptitude at driving,

    It's the filthy look they give you when they balls up that's gets me, how dare I be legally on the road riding like a maniac at 27 mph, surely I should be aware the correct procedure is to travel everywhere at 40mph regardless of the posted limit.

    I pulled up next to one of these specsaver candidates in the local budgens car park where I proceeded to apologise for being in their way and causing them to brake, thereby dropping their mobile phone mid call which I offered to reimburse them for.

    They looked completely shocked and said that they expected a mouthful of abuse from me ! I went on to explain that some bikers are able to use rudimentary tools, some of us have even managed to gain employment and a few of us can count to more than 10 without the use of our hands. I then bid them good day leaving 2 baffled, bewildered and very embarrassed members of the public looking very humbled to the amusement of 20 or so passers by,

    Some times it's better not to shout.

    Folks just ain't used to seeing bikes again after the long spell with only a few bikes on the roads.

    The first couple of months I get back onto the bike I always notice that drivers don't see you as much.

    Just not that many on here...

    You may not have found the little button. It's just below the flasher button. It activates the cloaking device. Unfortunately, the default setting is "On". Whenever the battery is disconnected it resets. Stupid bloody dealer spanner monkeys tend to forget to reset it after they've been working on it. It's a common problem.

    i find it the only use for knee sliders i have, as i can't for the love of Christ get my knee down.
    however i find a knee slider form the back wing always to the front wing( pulling in you knee to avoid wing mirrors) improves people eyesight very quickly....

    oh is that going to be expensive!!!! sorry "But i did see you" and did my best for you not to hit me!!! sorry you only paying for you car and not me a compo and a new bike..... and your really lucky you didnt kill me..... ... the pregnant fish.


    glad to here nothing bad happened
