but yes you do. If a supplier forces those who want to derestrict their bike to buy a dongle then that's alright. If customers can derestrict their bikes without buying a dongle then it's that supplier's fault.

may be until the autumn. The tory brexiteers are doing all the TV interviews at the moment but there are about 100 tory MPs in the club 'anyone but Boris'. There are enough of them to fight the brexiteers in a new vote of confidence.

the password is difficult to crack without inside knowledge (eg from support people), same with the special key sequences. There is an easy defeat: buy a new LCD, the password comes with the LCD. Your argument passes a blanket of blame on suppliers who do not try harder to stop people messing...

are you talking about vfr? The man I know is a logical gentleman with not a bad bone in his body. I reckon he'll hang around a bit longer.

Andrea Leadsom has just quit the cabinet. TM refused to go tonight.

this thread shows you a simple method to derestrict it. there is no fundamental difference because of the methods, between a modification by software or hardware. If Bosch were threatened with heavy fines for not making tampering impossible, they'd put a 3-axis or 6-axis gyro chip inside the...

OK, let's look at this argument further. Lets say that the password for Bafang LCD is 0512. You navigate through the on screen menu, the LCD asks you for the password. You enter the password, you are in the setting screen. On the Tongsheng LCD, you have 10 seconds after power up to hold down two...

Jeremy Hunt? They are queueing to ask TM to leave.

as vfr pointed out, that's your interpretation though. Extrapolating from your posts, any bike that can be unlocked is illegal. One could argue that installing a software update involves unlocking the LCD, so any bike with LCD that can be unlocked or have its software updated is potentially...

they are not futile, it's peer review. You get to question your own judgment at a slow pace. You don't get drowned out in the noise of thousands of posters in twitter, FB or the bbc website. This thread isn't an echo chamber either, more like zlatan's BBQ.

Salvini likes to blame the EU for all things that go wrong in Italy, and get back the 'free money' tree (ie devaluation) that was there before Italy joined the Eurozone. All he achieved so far is to demoralise international investors and push Italy's debts into a new crisis. Perversely...

activating a dongle is the same as twisting the spoke magnet until it starts reading wrongly, except that the dongle has a set error percentage of 50%. If you have a wrong speedo, it's like after you activated the dongle. If you don't activate your dongle, you are not speeding. The situation is...

he has the charm of a hollywood actor: teeth done up American style, permanent plastic smile, open arms to welcome anyone coming to his party to make a donation. His ability to change the agenda consists of telling his adoring fans that everybody else lies on their manifestoes, but not him...

they do so by misrepresenting the two major parties, saying that TM's brexit is not brexit, JC's brexit is not brexit. Their allied MPs opposed any brexit in parliament. The truth is both TM's brexit and JC's brexit are less good than remain and they cannot show us a brexit that is better than...

I am not sure about this, as it has never been tested in a Court case. Let's say I make a bike that will still work if the spoke magnet is twisted away. Is it illegal? As far as I know, EN15194 testing has never mentioned a spoke magnet test that it cannot be removed nor twisted away. So the...

I think it still does if the dongle is not activated. the 15194 specifications never mention the dongle nor the throttle. If you don't activate the dongle, the bike is not modified in anyway...

he has presentational skills. If he had had leadership skills, UKIP would not have sunk to current depth.

If one day, the EU mandates that all the bikes must have enforced speed limiter, then it's not difficult to add an 3-axis accelerometer to the controller to work out if a dongle is used.

I think Farage BXP is a special case. All the European EU sceptic parties do not want to leave the EU, they want to reform the EU, reduce immigration, reform the Schengen rules, reduce administrative opacity etc

it's the only time he goes to work... Actually, me too (go to work).
