Met office has today forwarned of a bitter turn in the weather from Thursday.

A cold snap is forecast bringing wet windy weather along with possible snow flurries, sleet and icey conditions being predominant over the Easter weekend.

Wrap up warm adn ride safe everyone who dares to get out on two wheels for their choccie eggs! :o :o :o

This is really starting to depress me, you get a little hint that spring is on the way, get yourself in the mood for 4 days off and then what happens? The bl**dy weather gives you a kick in the ............, i think you know what i mean. Are we due to have a summer this year? I think we had last years on a Tuesday.

Its alright Amante, sounds like he might have done a little whopsy this morning, I hope you are alright Calne Ninja, Honest gov it wasnt me I didnt let down his tyres YET.

On a serious note, I hope you are alright and havent done anything to serious to yourself, the bike is a bike and can be fixed.

If you didn't see this in the ofther topic heres what happened -

I had a school kid walk out onto the road from behind a parked car. Natural reaction was to swerve, missed the kid but the next thing I knew was I was flying though the air. It wasn't a fast off only around 10 mph but it didn't half cause some damage to the bike.

Need a new front nose cone, and a right front fairing bodywork wise.
Tried to start it a few times since and the battery is dead so I have ordered a new one as it could have done with one anyway. Possible crack in the rad put I ain't sure yet going to have it apart at the weekend.

I used to be a car mechanic but not all that clever when it comes to bikes. So quick question -
Do bikes have an emergency fuel cut off switch in the event of a accident as that the only reason I can think of why it will no longer start...?

The kill switch for the engine might of accidentally got turned on

ouch, really sorry to hear that mate! would have been better if we'd got there 1st and let the tyres down! :( at least you're not hurt, bikes can be mended a lot more easily :)

Lots of bikes have a tip over sensor so cut the engine once horizontal. Should be able to start again once upright though. At least you & the youngster are OK, as said, the bike is just that.
