  3. Was wondering what they were?! [emoji848]
  4. My saws still going well Toby [emoji6][emoji106]
  5. Passed my class 1 back in 2003 i think [emoji848][emoji15][emoji849]
  6. But as i passed my test before 19th jan 2013 i am exempt from the 3.500kg ruling?
  7. I think .gov needs to update their website [emoji849]

  9. I’m not avin that! ? I want a picture of you on said vehicle wearing your parachute as proof!
  10. Could always do your trailer licence, not sure on cost though, mate of mine did his a while back and think it cost about £650, but not 100% sure. I passed in 99 but i’m exempt from the laws because i have my class 1 hgv licence, also another option for ya, but its expensive for that theses days, your up at nearly £3k i think now to do class 1.
  11. In that case then, its a combined vehicle with trailer inc its load of maximum 3.500kgs so you’ll lose quite a lot of payload with having a heavy vehicle like your disco to start with. So if your disco has a kerb weight of 2.500kgs (weight of vehicle on its own unladen) that leaves you 1.000kgs to play with. Not a lot unfortunately.
  12. I would of thought, if you passed your test before jan 97 (which i presume you did) then you can tow a combination of vehicle, trailer and load up to but not exceeding 8.250kgs. (Dont exceed your plated weights though of what you are running / towing, i.e plated towing weight of your disco might be 3.500kgs and a 16ft tri axle ifor trailer might also be plated at 3.500kgs fully laden, so your mass in running order legally would be 7.000kgs, so if you put that extra weight on your illegal, even though you can legally tow up to 8.250kgs) Thats how i read / understand it, i could be wrong though Saul.
  13. You think it’ll break for the worse? My dad is adamant it wont last and says it’ll turn on us again, harshly [emoji849][emoji849][emoji849] “ever the optimist again father” i’ll reply! I’m a day by day man and what is.... is, bbc weather never gets it right just lately.
  14. Are VEC & Hyway not same outfit?
  15. Whats cost of a genuine?

    Rare rim sprocket

    @sfl There is an old post on here involving RobD at chainsaw bars, a previous user (Pinkfoot) wanted to run 8t 3/8 picco, the same scenario as you’ve posted above, Rob managed to find something. The old post was from 2014 so a while ago, but Rob may remember and be able to help ya, worth a PM or a call.
  17. Sins Dr West, sins! Just come back from a run out through trough of bowland from Lancaster, clear views all through the valley, but very foggy looking out across to Morecambe and beyond. A few farms with new born lambs bouncing around, always a joy to see. Sat out having a brew now in the garden and the common background noise appears to be the petrol vs electric lawnmower [emoji23]

    Rare rim sprocket

    I get 00006421241 as 7t rim sprocket kit, and part number 11210071041 as 8t rim sprocket only? Listed for MS260 is that right? Do Oregon not do one?
  19. You remember you are holding on to a raging petrol powered, unique smelling, wood nibbling, magical two stroke machine that has no regard for any breed of leylandii...... surely thats enough to make you smile and squeeze on!
  20. Your the one taking aim in the bush! [emoji6]?‍♂️
