As an American, this is the only castle that I like to visit...

Don't I know it. One day they're all lovey dovey, licking the salt off of your truck in the driveway and the next night the bastids jump in front of your truck....

There you go Tym..............

.......but we've made it onto Page 1 of Google! There's only 6 sites above us now cos some have two listings........obviously the likes of AdvRider and ThumperTalk are in that bunch. But they've been around for 20 years.....not 10 weeks. So we're doing OK! Just need to get more new members in so put the word about wherever you can. Obviously the more movement we can get on here the less likelihood of us running into pics of @Pedro's disgusting food!

On liquid cooled bikes, since 2013 or so, it's been a wet clutch that you access from the front of the engine.

A modern GS is not a bike you want to have problems with, that's certain, as things get expensive fast. However, my bike has done 60.000km last week and has never needed anything. It'll get new clutch plates, though, as I've been advised to change them to improve the gearbox smoothness and as preventive measure against oil contamination fucking up the engine. Plates will be 300€ plus fitting, which is easy compared to previous generations. It is frugal, I love the handling, the brakes, etc, and I really like boxer engines, no other engine I would rather have for the riding I like to do. Also, when I bought it I chose it specifically with two up touring intended, and there is absolutely no other big trail that can do that better than this bike, period. Would I live with a Super Tenere? Surely I would, and I would love that if I had one, and maybe it would last longer too. But I like riding my bike a lot more so that's what I do and just put up with the risk of fixing it.

We have similar problems with wild Haggis, nothing short of a. 50cal will stop them though.

Too big......they need to be around 60px. Resizing in an editor will kill the animation.

CASTLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had to replace a clutch on a D7 Bantam in 71.......think it cost about 3 quid! Which was probably more than the POS Bantam was worth!

The problem is they let the white bears go free with just a warning, while they drop the ban hammer on the black ones...

Bloody hell Ian, thank you for that trip through English culture

Congrats @Pedro That was close. ?

You're telling an American to ignore a castle?

You need to do better, fancy highlighting him with a stake and a piece of rope

Refresh the page and you'll see it now! Fame at last Pedro!
