I decided to set the tablet to Factory Settings, followed the instructions I found on line, anybody have any idea which one I select? (

i might be pregnant

Someone sold the houses in the first place! But that doesn't fit the narrative!

they are a bit thick ... they are winging about no housing for locals .. tourists go home after a couple of weeks .. its people buying properties and letting them out as Airbnb's they should be protesting against

I’ve forgotten how to change the picture.

I know how you feel i smashed the wing mirror taking the transit back to pick up my van yesterday fucking bus driver forced me over on a narrow bit of road and i clipped a lamp post and i have to change the other lower ball joint on my daughters car, i think its the other one cant remember which one i changed last year but remember it was a pain.

Managed to get in and out of the tip without cost but they have cameras. Aprilla clutch working as it should after a jump start, but then he stalled it.

Now going to refit the clutch master cylinder to the Aprilla after a run to the tip with much crap wood from the old shed floor. Wonder if it's going to cost me.

I hope that she doesn't get booked!

Nah, the Spanish have decided that they don't like tourists anymore!

Go down your local chinky takeaway, They might help if you buy something

Everything's turning into an arse of a job. Golf diesel needs a cam belt. Running like crap the belt is frayed and less than half its normal width. Turns out it's not uncommon for this engine to jump teeth on the belt and mess with the lobes pressed onto the camshafts so I've now got to sort that. Old gent with the collection of old motors tells me the A95 is running rich, more like the old Zenith carb is worn out and starving the engine of fuel in the high revs. Tempted to tell him to leave well alone as he drives it like miss daisy and alls well other than leaving a few black marks on his drive. The wine bottle is open. Edit. Trying to find time to finish the sheds too. And where's Tango.

Yup and the people complaining would do the same if they were selling, i cant see anyone having a house valued at £150K being offered £200k turning around and saying nah i'm good with the £150k

fuck I walked right into that

That's outright disrespectful and properly endangering towards women.

Thank you very much for your report Ian! The internet would be a shitty place without you!

Should be at least 20

Bit needy, you got 9 likes

@Tango and @busabeast ... turns out are gay lovers... they have left their wives and fucked off to spain and opened a bar.

Cheers Dave, I really like that. I've not heard anything by the Doves before, I'll have a listen to the album

Possible flounce ?

Had my first attempt at cleaning the CBF600, still plenty to do but it is looking passable from a few feet. Just going for tidy as it has done 30k so has a few battle scars and I am not concerned with that but there is some dirty shit that has to go. EG the glue from old wheel balancing weights and such. I spent yesterday cleaning up the panniers and getting the old stickers off. Of course there is no show without punch as Shadow wanted her bike in the photos so she can show her mates what she is supposedly getting. Notice the red hair to match, not obsessed much Anyway she’s wasn’t on receive when I told her about tests and such. Be some time yet.

the rear ones are in the back light.. r6 light, front are normal... got some one going to look at it, i cleaned earth etc ..nothing

Yeah village aint the same without the idiot, although I have to commend you for taking on the task in his absence Marcel.

Great didn't want to know why he wasn't here just wanted to know he was still going

I heard from busa today, he will be back, he had to take some time out for reasons I am not sure I should share.

Yer absolutely. It's definitely not that a bunch of bitter pack animals chased off a decent person. Oh NO He definitely displayed some form of deviance or weakness at some point so it's their fault.... Pete in his own way embraced difference. He may not of absolutely carried it out cleanly but he was clear about equality.

Twat probably moved to Colombia to not be contacted by anyone anymore, and opened a forum with @Slowlycatchymonkey!

I will get back to you to see how I get on with and without the tank bag and the new screen. Sure I could make something similar if need be. I remember my old BMW R100RS had bellows type gaiters between the fairing and fork tubes and I always thought that was just about water but looking back it obviously blocked air as well. That RS fairing was bloody good, very quiet and dry place to be even in the pissing rain as long as you were moving.

If your still getting buffeting and turbulent air try blocking the space between the forks and fuel tank my Africa Twin would have the peak on my helmet vibrating like hell and found it to be air coming up through there although your tank bag looks like it may stop that I made this to stop it on my bike, they are available to buy now for the Africa twin

Some goodies turned up yesterday so had a play this morning. I had the tank bag already but had to get a second ring so that I can use it on this bike. Also getting a lot of buffeting and turbulent air off the standard screen so got a taller one to see how that goes.

Yep, sweating on top of rubber sheets. Some MP’s would pay good money for that sort of treatment

Haven’t got any heated gear, I have been using thermal underwear up to now but that may be problematic for work. Most hospitals are like the fucking tropics in the winter.

All you want now is a power outlet for your heated jacket and your winter riding setup will be complete

I am guessing all year use. I think there was plenty of preventive maintenance over time as its not at all bad underneath the grime. I am only playing really, it's a £1100 winter hack I just like making it a bit nicer.

It's already on the to do list, along with taking the rear swing arm out and repainting that . I had a nice surprise when I took the front side fairings off as I had a clear shot at the fork tubes that I thought were rusty and pitted, turns out that it was mummified flies. Some WD and a cloth and off they came. The tubes look pretty bloody good. Obviously been regularly sprayed with something to prevent pitting.

Typical Honda fork lowers. What you could do with those is rub them down with fine wet & dry paper , spray silver and then lacquer . The alternative method is to ship them off to SIX30 wheel painting services Ltd , although I wouldn't guarantee the work

After my night shift Kip I set about playing bikes for the afternoon. Nothing fancy really just put in some LED headlights and fitted my Quadlock along with some obsessive cleaning especially under the front fairings. I need to get some LED bulbs for the marker lights but all in good time. I am really enjoying getting this bike back to presentable, I don’t think it has been thoroughly cleaned in years just serviced and ridden. But there is something about polishing a turd and bringing it back that is quite fulfilling. It rode without fault for my work commutes over the weekend. Even used the heated grips this morning coming home. Just gotta do something about those ditch finder tyres. This side on shot shows there is still plenty to do to tidy up. This thread would have been perfect for Pete what with Hondas and obsessive cleaning
