Sounds like there’s something wrong if it’s doing that?

I had a Suzuki Grand Vitara that did the same thing. They're an older generation of vehicles that have basic systems. You can turn the ABS off on the van though.
My Landrover's ABS works brilliantly but it does have a sophisticated all-terrain drive system.

That's ABS for you...
Turn it off before you get killed.

I had a mitsubishi evo 5 for a couple of years but sold it when I was building my house I have now, it had a fully rebuilt rally spec motor from a guy here called Aidan fields.. he ran a lot of the top competitors here with evos ... after selling the car I missed the bit of power so when offered a subaru impreza turbo that my mate scooby had been offered with a fucked engine i took a punt .. now my mates name being scooby probably tells you his job was these cars and when he rang he said I've a 6500 subaru impreza with a fucked engine going mega cheap but skitz im telling you the engine isn't gone its the arrogant little pox that owns it tried to do the timing belt and its probably off a tooth.. so car bought belt moved 1 tooth it roared into life through a 4" straight through system 😍 i learned a lesson that day .. if the Guinness fucked up the timing belt what else was he at .. on the way to work i pass through 2 sets of 4 cross roads let's just say the young man must have thought he was Robbie burns and had removed all the abs sensors so as I came up to the cross roads driving like a bell end I mashed the pedal into the carpet and nothing but 4 locked wheels and screeching and trye smoke . I barely missed a cop car and a micra ... the copper chewed the bollocks out of me but I managed to bullshit my way around saying the ABS had actually failed .. we found the sensors in the spare wheel well 😆 if you have no abs you will have no issues because you know it i can tell you its a different story when you actually think the ABS is there 🤢

Well yes, if you know a control system isn't there you factor that in and drive/ride around it and all is well. If you're expecting it to be there and find at the critical moment that it is not it's very much squeaky bottom time.

A little like barrelling into a fast bend at 120 mph on a 1260 Diavel, snicking down a gear and discovering that Ducati's marvellous quick-shifter (shitter) has decided to select a false neutral instead of 5th and you're free-wheeling with zero engine braking.
 
Just bought these to have a shot of each daily - con or beneficial ? 🤔

Concentrated turmeric supplements in tablet form have been known to cause health problems. As long as those only contain ginger and turmeric and you don't overdo it they'll do no harm. But you're better off getting the benefit just by adding the natural product to your food. Eat more curries or make ginger tea from the natural root. Cheaper too.

Just thought this would be easy with no faffing - and being a liquid concentrate it might digest better - one 60ml shot of each per day and no faffing which is nice :) I already eat 2 curries a week..... 👀

You need to take black pepper with turmeric to unlock its health benefits apparently.
I put both in my morning smoothie. Cant taste the pepper and the turmeric gives a nice flavor .
Is it doing me any good? Fuck knows....
 
I don't like turmeric tea. It's too sludgy if you only have the ground powder. I just make regular lentil dahls instead which have tons of the stuff in them.

I don't mind the turmeric as it's not that present in my actual diet so a shot now and then but I do use a Beetroot shot every day its proven to be great for blood pressure as it relaxes and frees up the flow in our arteries I don't mind the cold pressed shots but you try feed me Beetroot you are getting a slap 👀

I quite like beetroot juice. Always got a carton in the fridge. Keeps for ages. If you want to go full Russian stick a vodka in it.
