Benda.

Leaving around noon tomorrow for one last bike ride for the season...should be a 4 day run...Will be entering States side by Wednesday ...

Not bad at all...your getting good with your pencil...lol.

Problem is that particular bike was assembled in Italy and while is says it was made in Italy, I'm pretty sure that parts are not. I think that bike is assembled all over the world but I wouldn't mind betting that the majority of the parts are from chinese manufacturers. I had quite a chat with the chap who fixed it and he said that even though these bikes are pretty reliable the quality isn't what it used to be. He also thought the service intervals are to big for a small air cooled motor. 4K miles between services which I am going to cut in half from now on. One point he did make was that at least you can still get parts for Japanese brands whereas it's often not possible to get them for chinese brands, so the ongoing support is there for japanese stuff and that is better than most chinese stuff. Also to bear in mind it Shadow has thrashed to tits of this thing for 15k miles whereas many chinky 125s don't actually make it that far. So you are right is the short answer.

Wouldn't have been that prob if the Japs still produced them.

Oh my Lord...he's gone to the States and lost his marbles...watch it now...he's gonna quit his day job and become a T.V evangelist...

1 Corinthians, Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, not moose fondlers, nor midgets, will inherit the kingdom of God.

The culprit. There is a noticeable notch in the cam follower bearing. All working well now motor sounding sweet and not to horrendous a bill in fact I think it was very reasonable as he has a cash rate

Were moose molesters mentioned in the sermon 🫎

So thats it...your off on a religious crusade, are you visiting other things other than churches ? How about posting some pics you numbskull...lol.

Im no midget...lol

During.

Im almost finished with the insulation, installed a roof hatch in case I have to run electrical wires eventually... My Harley is leaking hydraulic oil , had a look underneath, its leaking above the engine and transmission, can't really see anything unless I remove one of the rear tires and possibly the rear fender....the side fuel tank hides everything from sight... Turns out the manufacturer warranty expires this Oct...so a tec from the dealer is in the area today , he's gonna have a look at it , if it can't be repaired on site , it will have to be trailler to the shop....150 bucks one way...

We're you there?

Do you think young boys were harmed and possibly midgets ?

Car checked over for tomorrow's epic journey oil, water and tyre pressures checked, and it has a tank full of E10... Weather forecast is still reasonable too as long as it is dry there it will be OK for us.

And this was after?

That's better than the rebel but only just.

Dinky car test driver you mean He couldn’t handle the power of Scalextrics

I am sure she would, I will get the original motor sorted, as far as I know it’s just the one bearing that’s gone. The new motor is for me when I finally get what’s left of the bike back in the future.

probably all deserved ..most short blokes have a chip on thier shoulder.. is it true @Marcel you used to do a lot of test driving for Scalextric ...

He’s not the shortest guy you’ll meet, but he’s short. Let’s not make fun of him, he’s probably had enough of it in real life.
