    Inverter for my van to charge Ebikes

    Dont suppose there’s a guide on how to install/connect all this up? I’ve one 100ah battery atm but will add another one, I take it when the engine is running the batteries don’t lose any power?

    Forestal Siryon 2021 Edition One - Owners Thread

    I’ve heard reports of people buying bikes and not being hit with anything, it simply just arrived as If by magic! ? But that’s the lottery, seems come July things will be much tighter and that’s the current advised window if you place an order now, the rest are June....

    I didn’t know I’d been uploaded until a mate spotted me! ?. Make sure to click the arrow to see the second vid, good example of why coaching is useful and how handy the right knowledge is.....this was earlier in the day, later on I wasn’t hitting the brake as much, soon won’t be at all hopefully

    Braking technique question

    As I’d said about coaching, had one earlier today at Greno on a group of far more experienced riders and whilst at first I was pootling down Steel City like a noob I was soon keeping pace (actually faster than some) after some body position corrections and advice on how to attack the berms, all...

    Braking technique question

    Hi Joe, I’m almost as new as you but the bike isn’t the issue it’s your lack of experience by sounds of things, I speak from ’in’experience ?! Weirdly you need to go faster, before things start to go slower, it’s your perception of speed. Something not mentioned yet is actually ‘look ahead’...

    Wonder if it’s business to business if it’s applicable if a VAT number is provided....failing that then we’re talking literally driving 1000 miles!

    Forestal Siryon 2021 Edition One - Owners Thread

    That’s a bummer if your right, after reading the zero VAT advised on the order page I was hopeful for a minute and ever closer to biting, like 95% close. Fuel would be £350, not sure on van transport, be a nice trip though must admit but if you pickup there’s a 4.5% charge to collect so £6157 +...
