Just had a belting idea....






Yep its true a genuine helpfull idea with no catch.


How many people have suffered soggy unreadable tax discs when the moisture from washing, riding in the rain etc penetrates through the holder and makes all the ink run...

Today i got my new disc and prior to fitting it i covered it with waterproofing spray which is designed for footwear, 2 light coats each side, allow it to dry off then put it into the holder. I tested it on the old disc 1st then dropped it into the sink full of water it came out fine. :yo:

Top idea though John. :beer:

or you could just buy a decent disc holder that is waterproof, you know the ones that bolt together with an o ring between them.

 

[gypsy]

i have one of those Woolfie to which i added a little silicone sealant to be on the safe side .Out of interest i ve just checked it and it doesnt stop the fecker running out tomorrow !
Doh!

 

[Wolfie]

so do i gippo and it has not leaked yet!!!

 

[RHINO]

Wolfie, mine pissed in like a cullinder and made it un-readable so today invested in a 'Red Fox' one and also waterproofed the disc. Bloody ?19 for a disc holder,, looks sturdy though.

Best waterproof is a candle

Jaws was selling 1 @ the Bash if I remember right

So tell me Rhino,
why pay ?19.00 for a tax disk when I sell them ( the waterproof 'safe' type ) for ?16 ?
It seems to me that often folk on go out of their way and spend more just to avoid shopping at Jaws ! Quite amazing !!

[Jaws]

I couldnt give a shit how my tax disc looks once I've bought the fecker cos its displayed within the holder that came with the bike. If the authorities don't like it .. feckin tough..
