I spoke to Pidcocks a few weeks ago. Their sales are up year on year.

Frickin' A! I finally passed my motorbike test today! What a day! So now looking into getting a Honda CBR 600 F to pootle around on for the next year or so.

On a completely different tangent my 125 needs a new battery. Anyone have any recommendations on makes?
Its a ytx7a-bs, quite an obscure battery not available from halfrauds.

So
-Varta?
-Dynavolt?
-Numax?
-Turbo?

Cheers!
