    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me why it is that when I have my bandit on tick over and
    turn the handle bars hard to the right the revs increase without me touching
    the throttle?
    Thanks
    Newboy.

    Coriolis effect.

    If you were in the southern hemisphere, it'd increase revs when you
    steered left.

    *Especially* if you have wider bars than standard fitted (e.g. Renthal).

    Throttle cable is too short of badly routed.

    'or' rather than 'of'[1]

    I've just been trying to type unix commands on a French Windows PC. Hmm
    that's an interesting keyboard layout, it's amazing how much you
    actually do touch type without knowing you're doing it.

    Sounds like fun.

    My problem is the switch from the old laptop to the new. They're both
    Dell's but the new one is widescreen so the keyboard is further in the
    where I normally rest my hands.

    Also they've annoyingly moved the delete and end keys from the bottom
    right to the top right so I keep hitting the arrow keys.
