Played golf again today and the heat was excruciating but despite the brutal conditions I came third out of twenty players and missed winning by three bloody points. Best bit was I walked away with €25 prize money ️€€€€€€€€€………hardly the big-time but hey, every little helps

My friend and I are ready incase they pay a visit

Sounds like you know what your doing Clive good luck. One of the problems I've had in the past was the wiring around the headstock try turning the handlebars lock to lock maybe a break in the wiring there

Sounds like an earth problem.

@Clive has a scooter for sale

Yep that was me, you’re still a disappointment.

Interesting I think i like it

You in clives shed are you?

I park my car as close to my shed door as possible, they may be able to get in the shed, but apart from the scoot and some oil and crappy old tools (important stuff is is our spare room) there is nothing in there worth nicking, but they can't get the scoot out, if they tried to move the car the alarm will go off, waking my wife up, I will hear nothing.

No, the garage is at the end of the garden seperate from the house. There is access to it from a communal lane at the rear, hence any theiving scrotes have fairly easy access.

Tell me about it........before my AA stopped we could save a little each month.....now...Bugger all.

So this afternoon I popped out into the lane at the rear of our house to take some cutting discs up to my neighbour. Just up the lane were two scrotes on moto-x bikes with hoodies up. I approached them and asked them how they got here , 'we didn't ride innit mate' was their answer. I laughed and informed them that a copper lives just down the lane , they asked where ? With that my neighbour came out and asked me who they were , they clocked him and f*cked off down the lane (he's a 6'2'' 21 stone guy from Greneda) . I will be sleeping in my garage tonight as instinct tells me that these are part of the same gang that stole five bikes and tools from my place of work last year. If they do return and try to take my bikes I will be sleeping with my Royal Naval divers issue knife to protect myself and my property

Great looking bike, that stonking engine and brembo brakes are a great start. The suspension being non-adjustable is a bit of a let down and at over £9000 it's a little bit pricey imo. The lovely, lovely mirrors are a nice touch and it so happens that I have some for sale. These are the original VIcma folding mirrors , not the cheap chinese copies that vibrate like f*ck Please ask if you want a pair or even one ..............

well that's ok then i will have them with my curry and rice

I know mate, it’s just uncomfortable out on the bike and that’s the first time in all the years we’ve been here I’ve actually felt like that. Now I don’t know if it’s because I’m a bit older and I can’t quite handle the heat or whether the heat is more intense. Could be a combination of both I guess but as soon as it breaks a bit we will have a run out mate.

I would replace that cable.

Hmmmmmmm, that's an interesting solution. I have no idea if that would work but might be worth a try ? What do you say @Sir Fallsalot , @Buckster , @Catteeclan

Back from Baza! Visited the client who's got the Cave B&B....... Then the wife wanted to go here! It's already pretty hot (35) but we made it back before the real brutal shit comes in!

It’s like piss anyway, should only be drunk by Honda and BMW riders.

Biggest friend you can have in the tool box Clive https://www.amazon.co.uk/Voltage-Circuit-Electrical-Automotive-Systems/dp/B0987X7R8J/ref=asc_df_B0987X7R8J/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=534966790792&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=5593375668853706080&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1006751&hvtargid=pla-1397585477515&psc=1

Cause they promoted it with a transgender , sorry I mean mentally ill twat …thought more Harley riders would of started drinking it to be honest @Buckster trailer is full of bud light

Do you know something i really don't give a toss and can't be arsed anymore i'm off to bed to dream about any bike that takes my fancy because i'm not blinkered

I’m listening to the gay boxing on the radio in my garage

Well I guess that not all Harleyers are gay. https://beforeitsnews.com/opinion-conservative/2023/08/no-one-drinking-bud-at-sturgis-motorcycle-rally-3669943.html

It does get harder to handle the heat as you get older that's for sure. It seems to be consistently hotter than it used to be, plus the heat is coming in earlier in the day, and dropping much later!

Gave you a semi did it?

It could well be, i am going to check and clean the ones I can find.

Easy mistake to make.

I don't think you need to worry Lionel, seeing as you only eat chips .............

Check the earth from the battery, could be loose.

I wouldn't know if it wasn't i asked my daughter earlier and she doesn't know either LOL

yes it makes you think doesn't it ?

to or too ... bath, sink , same difference , i have a picture of you in my head now of my old English teacher , she wore a massive cord skirt and sandals , a mans suit jacket with leather patches on the elbows, glasses with lenses that looked like the bottom of two pint glasses...and a wart on her nose the size of a golf ball.

Wonder if it's worth looking at the starter motor.

The wife is away in a rock festival somewhere this weekend the boy is getting his end away on the isle of man again for two weeks and the daughter is never around so i'm on my own again. Not planned much other than cleaning the marmite wagons interior and maybe having a look at some of the advisories it had on the MOT back in January LOL It's just dawned on me the wife left this morning and is not back until Sunday and i haven't a fucking clue where she's gone for the weekend all i know its something to do with music and its in the UK

This weekend consists of Valeting the jag tomorrow then got a jag day out at Alnwick Castle booked up

Not a lot. Ex-neighbours coming to visit this afternoon (they live in Australia now) but that's up in the air as the M5 is shut and they're stuck in it . Taking Paolo to the nursing home tomorrow to see mother-in-law , apparently he will be singing for the inmates. Saturday evening will be kebab and beer/cider

I’ll transfer you £100 if you take it in your garden douse it with petrol and set fire to it

A guy on the scoot forum has been trying to sell his scoot, same model and year as mine, he tried for 3 months and gave up, it is stood in his garage now, he says he will try again next spring. Getting spares is a bit problematic.

I freshened up my Rally yesterday with a new seat as the original has sagged after six years of use. I went for a black seat from a 250M, I much prefer it to the red item, the strap was removed straight away

This was taken by Mandy a couple of months before my 60th birthday.

You need an e-bike! A hybrid or mountain bike, because they're more upright. You need to do some exercise that gets the heart pumping, otherwise it won't do much for your cholesterol levels. Biking is much easier on the knees than walking. I have the beginnings of arthritis in both my knees, especially the right knee, and I can cycle for miles no problems, but 5-10km walk and I really feel it in my knees!

I've been busy busy. We had friends round for a BBQ for Mandy's birthday, then Mandy was off work on hols last week, so we were out and about a fair bit. Things may settle down by Mid-september!
