I see all the old faces are still in here. smile

I'm finally getting my bikes back on the road/track and I'm in need of a new lid and some new boots. I've been away from biking in the last 2 years but a quick skim online shows that nothing has really changed kit wise (or has it?). I had a Marushin RS2 helmet before and I loved it due to its light weight and plain looks. I'd buy another in a heartbeat but the company appears to have disappeared. Anyone know what happened to them? My old boot were destroyed when I came off at malory and due to that I want something with a bit more strength. Plenty to choose from there though I just need to go and find some shops.

The track R1 has been patched up and after I've put a few miles in on the road I'll be looking to do track days again. The Fz1 needs MOt and tax etc which its almost ready for. Just waiting for a few bits to turn up then its off for a wobbly ride to the garage.

Any recommendations for roads, garages, and bike shops in the Leicester area? All my previous biking was done in Northampton.

They may have well have done. I need to try and get into my leathers. I'm putting it off for now. I've not exactly got thinner over the last 2 years and they were a .... good fit at the time. smile

I keep telling myself that its not going to cost too much getting back on the bikes.... Who the hell am I kidding.
