After having a look at the amount of members on this site I have to ask the question about how many are in London? There are 1889 (almost a great year for beer ) members and this looks a little high unless people are members from all over the UK.
Does anyone have a map of where people are from when they join?
Sorry but the point I was trying to make was is there 1800+ members of this site that post? I have been look for a while and there are a couple of groups of people but I’d not say more than 100.
I’m a couple of chains and still don’t like having her outside But if they want it there is little chains will do Yes I do have an alarm but unless you have the keys and forget to turn the F/ing thing off when you sit on her it never goes off
Actually how much would I look at to get an alarm fitted? sorry to ask off topic - im just a bit reluctant to ask in a dealers because I always seem to get the “alright luv” act
You can speak to Charley on this forum about alarms and things and also Baby J at Infinity at Great Portland Street too - they are members and will treat you as such - not like some bird (as some dealers do).
However be cautious of speaking openly about the actual secuirty you employ on your bike - not all the people viewing this site are friendly - sounds far fetched I know but strange things happen.
As for the number of forum members in London I suspect a fair amount are london based or at least work / connected with London in some way. Clearly we don’t get 1000’s of people turning up at Cubana but then there’s plenty of people who perhaps just check the forums to see what’s been happening. However equally they’ll be a number (some post on a regular basis) from a long way away. And of course not all of them ride…
in any case a alarm is on the cards and I will definately contact Charly et baby J, its nice to be treated fairly (especially as im a newish rider I dont always know everything I would like to) I have certainly found everyone to be very friendly here
I have recently gone back to commuting to the City after 2 years away and I have really noticed a significant increase in the number of scooters. Seems to be the same amount of bikes but the scooters are everywhere, all in suits and not using mirrors before lunging out from betwen the cars
