Anyhow, Loops, do you have one of those Steibel horns? They're fabulous.

HORNS - STEBEL-NIPPY NORMANS - the No. 1 supplier of BMW motorcycle accessories!

Thanks again Strummin for showing me the horn. It's saved my hide a couple times!!!

Ive just realised how soft you guys are, all in a tiffy beause of a little bug or bee.
Here we have real monsters non of your sissy bees and toffy livered beetles.

We have midges............love to see some of you englishshire folks get a helmet full of the little beggers and keep riding.............naw dont think so..........it would be end of ye all.

Seriously though when they go in your helmet its usual about 50 of the little feckers, then they chew your ears, cheeks, eyes, scalp. Oh it gets so irratating but were real men here, even the women

macca9540 · 07-13-2009, 5:51 PM

Flying ants are brilliant when they get in your eye as well. Stings like soap or shampoo.

That explains it.

Midges 25kph>sidmarklong tooling along at 24kph and wanking about little tinny bugs getting in my eye's. Okay, so I should ride like I got a pair. I am not Englishire, naaw I'm just poken fun. Regularly travel at about 100mph here in the states. Get away with it so far, maybe when I get a shackled, I'll mention those notorious Midges.

Got stopped by the police once for 165, when I took my helmet off and midges flew out I pleaded mercy and thanked them for stopping me. They were so amazed that Id survived the attack the gave me a £60 sympathy cash and deducted the 5 points off my licence, god loves a midge at times
