Drift Ghost XL

Pompey Learninated1 Comment

Drift Ghost XL Camera by Drift Innovation. I purchased this from SPORTSBIKESHOP a little while ago now and I use this place as they are one of the best online I have found and always deliver without any issues pretty much guaranteed next day each time I order from them even if you order late in the evening. I wanted a new camera system to put onto my helmet easier. I’ve have tried other cameras but this one was the best for the shape and size and how it mounted to your crash helmet as well as other items. Since …

CE Impact Memory Foam

CE Impact Memory Foam Jacket Set from Roadskin. I purchased these items from Roadskin website a little while ago now, and I have used their armour to replace my standard armor in my hoodie which is what I still use most of the time while I ride. The first thing I would say is if you’re looking at Armour to replace or upgrade your stock stuff is to check out the videos about this stuff, as seeing is believing. After seeing the video about how this stuff works i was gobsmacked how good this stuff seemed, and how perfect it …

Motorcycle DVR (DV688)

Pompey Learninated1 Comment

Motorcycle DVR Dash Camera (DV688). This unit costs around £130 for the basic unit and around £150 with the added GPS module, and it’s the best money one can spend on my bike. I am not sure if you have read my past review on its little brother the DV188 but its the same unit but full waterproof including the main unit this time, which is what sets it apart from the DV188. Like any DVR camera system it basic job is to record video why you riding around, with dual 1080p cameras you get front and back video footage …

Motorcycle DVR (DV188)

Motorcycle DVR Dash Camera (DV188). This unit costs around £80.00, and its the best money I have spent on my bikes. Like any DVR camera system it basic job is to record video why you riding around, with dual 1080p cameras you get front and back video footage at a great 1080p rate which is plenty for number plate reading. The unit is easy (most cases lol) to fit, it main unit you mount wherever you like, under a seat (this part is not waterproof but the rest is) or like me next to my windshield screen, so rain doesn’t …

Wash Mitt – Sponge

Pompey Learninated0 Comments

Microfibre wash mitt and sponge. Yep one of them things everyone needs when cleaning their dirty little bikes 😀 under a fiver and just a simple and effective way to remove dirt. Not a huge amount one can say, being microfibre these are really soft to use and don’t tend to scratch your paintwork, the mitt is a little small for large hands but it still allows a great way to clean your items, the sponge is very firm ands great for larger areas so more suited for cars than bikes I found, the mitt works great. For under £5 …

Muc Off Bike Cleaner 5L and cleaning spoke brush. Wanting to find something that would help and make my job of cleaning my bike easier I wanted something that I could spray and leave on and then rinse off and would clean my bike well. Doing my due diligence I did some research online and one of the names that kept coming up was Muc-Off and their nano tech cleaning products. Now looking into what been said about them I thought they could be the one to try but they are not the cheapest cleaning solution out there, but with …

Liquid Ceramic Coat

9H Car Ceramic Coating, 30ml Liquid Ceramic Coating. This stuff is being called different names but they all seem to show the same thing, the TV advert that shows someone cleaning half there car in this stuff and then throws mud over it and it beads off and the muds slides off, while the other half that’s not treated the muds remains on the bonnet looking such a mess. Loving this idea as being such a clean freak, I went a bought some, reading the instruction it says basically to clean your vehicle as normal and then once clean use …

Oxford Ground Anchor

Pompey Learninated1 Comment

Oxford Products Ltd Brute Force Ground Anchor (OF439). Like my chain this comes with a Sold Secure Silver rating which can help reduce your insurance. I wanted to make sure I used an anchor system with my bike but instead of being used direct on to the ground I wall mounted mine as this works better for my location. The ground anchor is really well made, I have hammer tested this and it holds without any issue, even the paint took a good beating before it chipped. It comes with the main anchor side, 2 bolts and 2 ball bearings …

Yamaha Motor MT125

Yamaha Motor (UK) Ltd MT125 2020. AristiA (Mrs Pompey Learninated) Review of this bike From the day. I collected my MT-125A she has been a reliable and highly enjoyable bike. My very first thoughts were that I wouldn’t be comfortable with it and I think if I had given her a test ride I may not have bought her. The handlebars felt very low, the clutch has a long travel and she felt very light. When I arrived home from the 50 mile journey, my thumbs were sore and the seat’s firmness had taken its toll but as with any …

Oxford HD Chain lock 2m

Pompey Learninated1 Comment

Oxford HD Chain lock 2m (Oxford OF160) Sold Secure Rating. I paid just under £40 for this setup, you can get them cheaper for different sizes but I wanted a longer 2m length on the chain so I could wrap it round more areas if needed, plus with my planned anchor point I needed to make sure it would reach. The chain itself is Hardened 9.5mm square link chain, which I will say seems really strong and comes with a cover over the chain itself to make sure it does not scratch when using it. The lock it comes with …
