    Thank you for those kind words.
    It's a possibility, but I won't confirm or deny this :)

    Same coming of slippery roundabouts - just open it up and smile as the
    TCS light flashes away to itself.

    Yeah, I always wanted one too, but couldn't afford the insurance, or
    fuel costs, when I was younger. I don't have the time now.
    They were just cheap! ;-)
    Yeah, I'll go along with that.
    You will indeed, cheers.

    Shame. I used to quite fancy one of those.

    Might one enquire as to how much (ish) you paid?

    Actually you might be on to a winner there really. IME it's only when
    Timo actually owns the bike that things go wrong and he sorts them
    out. The next owner gets a good bike :)

    IIRC is wasn't the ABS model... I'm sure the owner will toddle along
    soon and confirm or deny it.

    Nigel Eaton was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever:
    Three grand. Which incidentally was the asking price, as the owner was
    decidedly _not_ open to offers. I think it's a fair price, not too
    cheap, but not too expensive either.

    Simon Atkinson was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever:
    Pressure bleeder. Arse. That's the same way you have to bleed BMW ABS
    brakes as well. Oh well, that looks like a job that needs farming out
    then, unless I can borrow a pressure bleeder from one of the denizens
    of UKRM.
    Which might say more about the expected lifetime of the CZ than the
    lifetime of the brakes...

    Sounds like a good buy at that. There's hope for me yet...

    Once every two years according to the holy schedule of Osaka.
    Mixture of that and the fact that if you ever got any velocity, the last
    thing you'd want to do is spoil it all by putting on the brakes.

    Took a while to find it, though. A lots of Pans for this price are
    rather ropey...

    That's sort of what it does - it's not ESP, it detects a reasonable
    difference in speed between the front and rear wheels.
    I'm not for sale.

    Rather surprisingly, mine hasn't taken up that much time yet. Might
    have something to do with me not using it much, but it mostly does
    what it says on the tin (drive) and I can't be arsed to exorcise the
    Prince of Darkness at the mo'.

    Insewerance isn't too bad, road tax is free, but the fuel consumption
    explains why Shrubya wants to allow drilling in the Alaskan national
    parks. Strangely enough the fuel gauge appears to be rather accurate
    so I might actually have made it back from Pixie Central on a 1/4
    tank.

    Ermintrude doesn't have ABS/TCS/FOAD or any other *assistance*

    You get used to the brakes............ or hit things
