    EP3 New Tyre Advice - Kumho's

    I used to run them as ‘winter’ tyres on my EP3, as at the time I’d get through two sets of tyres a year and didn’t want to have AD08Rs all year round. They’re not as good as something like a Michelin PS4, but they’re hard to beat for the price. I’ve currently got 4 on my ST.

    Funnily enough I also work in Ealing, the train connections from where I used to live to there were horrendous. That plus shift work meant there was always a risk of finishing after the trains stopped running. Now it’s not so bad, I live half the distance away that I used to and have a bike...

    FK8 Diskloks

    The car manufacturers won’t make them shut off when out of range of the key for safety reasons. It’s relatively common to discover a high end car left unlocked and running somewhere remote so the thieves know if it’s got a tracker or not. If it’s not recovered, they jump back in and drive to Dover.
