In my lifetime, never has a Prime Minister been equally loved and loathed. Love her or hate her, right or wrong, the Iron lady stuck to her convictions. So, your thoughts, and perhaps time for a new poll. :hitler:

Hi all can you tell me if I can fit one of those converter things to the speedo of my twin? ( a bit loathed to admit I have brought on without knowing if it can be fitted) thought I would ask?

My first Honda was a 650TA and I loved it. Changed to the 700, after a three year affair with a Triumph 955i and loathed it. Bought another 650 and sold the 700. Happy again. Is there a moral to this story ?

Cheers for looking people. Two weeks ago the T/A speedo packed up and after checking everything out I ended up replacing the £20 circle of toothed white plastic from Honda :mad: that joins the cable end 'worm' mech to the wheel mech as it was shredded and had no teeth left - I guessed that this...
