Dude gets tanned from going riding in a tshirt and suddenly he thinks he’s a descendant of Shaka Zulu!

Thankfully @Marcel has used his post allocation for the day.

Replaced them today, I have a tool that uses a drift to remove the originals and a press to fit the new ones. I also have a new shifter shaft to go on but I also pulled the clutch today so will fit the shaft when I reassemble everything. The primary oil smelt nicely burnt from the slipping clutch.

Met my mate Steve today as he was having his Enfield MoTed and I was having Shadows CBF MoTed right after. Chap turned up on this interesting Cafe Racer type thing. Sounded awesome. So both bike with fresh MoT’s we took the Cb125F back up where I picked up my CBF. We headed for Dameralls to see the new Honda CB1000F. Very nice indeed although I would want real clocks. Loads there today

I often think of Pete when riding I learned from him when riding with him, I was a mental thrasher, on and off the throttle whereas Pete was smooth and constant, I did make him laugh though when I blasted past him on my Caponord right into the path of a Pheasant rising up from the tarmac, I had to duck to avoid my head getting taken off Well at least he saw why I have my user name LOL, his smooth flowing riding did inspire me to do better

Scoot passed the MOT with flying colours this morning, so it should, only covered 230 miles since the last MOT...... Bloody embarrassing.

Yes that’s right, Scotland shares a border with Iraq.

She's back

So today I pressed apart the clutch basket and replaced the clutch hub bearing and pressed it all back together. Here it is all pressed apart. New bearing pressed in and retaining ring fitted. Inner hub pressed in and retaining ring fitted. Time for lunch then fit the new clutch pack.

A little boy got on the bus, sat next to a man reading a book, and noticed he had his collar on backwards . The little boy asked why he wore his collar backwards . The man, who was a priest, said, " I am a Father . ." The little boy replied, "My Daddy doesn't wear his collar like that." The priest looked up from his book and answered, "I am the Father of many . The boy said, "My Dad has 4 boys, 4 girls and two grandchildren and he doesn't wear his collar that way!" The priest, getting impatient, said . "I am the Father of hundreds", and went back to reading his book. The little boy sat quietly thinking for a while, then leaned over and said, "Maybe you should wear a condom, and put your pants on backwards instead of your collar."

Couldn't be more fitting!....

A keg is better than a six pack, anyway!

A man is driving down a deserted stretch of highway when he notices a sign out of the corner of his eye....It reads: SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION 10 MILES He thinks this is a figment of his imagination and drives on without a second thought... Soon he sees another sign which reads: SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION 5 MILES Suddenly he begins to realize that these signs are for real and drives past a third sign saying: SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS HOUSE OF PROSTITUTION NEXT RIGHT His curiosity gets the best of him and he pulls into the drive. On the far side of the parking lot is a stone building with a small sign next to the door reading: SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS He climbs the steps and rings the bell. The door is answered by a nun in a long black habit who asks, 'What may we do for you my son?' He answers, 'I saw your signs along the highway and was interested in possibly doing business.... .' 'Very well my son. Please follow me.' He is led through many winding passages and is soon quite disoriented. The nun stops at a closed door and tells the man, 'Please knock on this door.' He does so and another nun in a long habit, holding a tin cup answers the door... This nun instructs, 'Please place $100 in the cup then go through the large wooden door at the end of the hallway.' He puts $100 in the cup, eagerly trots down the hall and slips through the door pulling it shut behind him. The door locks, and he finds himself back in the parking lot facing another sign: GO IN PEACE. YOU HAVE JUST BEEN SCREWED BY THE SISTERS OF ST. FRANCIS. SERVES YOU RIGHT, YOU SINNER.

I got to ride two new Nortons today. Manx R and the Atlas. Good day out

Did a bee sting you in the face? You need to get that looked at, preferably by someone with a strong stomach.

I might be moving to the states...I'm heading towards and ice cream shop...

To the east ? Oh by the way... I found ice age animals today...lol.

35 metres.

Tour Pak.

Who?

I have exciting news, my trip to bury was to make a purchase, if I could get the deal I wanted, which I did.

It’s to make kebabs on when I cross into Iraq.

You seem to have fitted a barbecue behind the back seat.

Congratulations @Pedro a great photo.

Look what my Mate Steve bought today. Liked mine so much he went and bought a newer better one today. Barsteward.

That top-box would make Pete proud...

Like matching track suits.

Clutch is fully assembled, I will put it back in the bike in the morning, I had to go out and help a friend with a problem with his electric garage door this afternoon, the friction pads on the Barnet clutch are much wider than the oem. It all went together nicely, quite an easy job really. The press is one I bought on Amazon, it was a return apparently and was been resold for less than £80 so I snapped it up and have not regretted it.

A woman was on the way to winning $100,000 on a game show, but her final question was suspended for the next night. Her husband sneaked into the studio and found the question and answer. He raced home and told his wife "Your question is 'What are the three main parts of the male anatomy', and the answer is 'The head, heart and penis.' The woman thinks about this throughout the night, but keeps forgetting the answer. Her husband keeps reminding her, "The head, heart and penis." Come the game show she has forgotten again, and the presenter asks, "For $100,000, what are the three main parts of the male anatomy? You have ten seconds." "Um... the head." "Good. Eight seconds." "Um... the heart." "That's right. Five seconds." "Oh... um... damn. My husband drilled it into me last night and I had it on the tip of my tongue this morning..." "That's close enough! You've won $100,000!"

Went up to Damerells to have a peak at the new CB1000GT. Very nice too. I was with Steve and Martyn. I think Steve has found his new bike.

You are overestimating @Marcel's mechanical acumen, if he can't fix it with a hammer then he can't fix it.

@Six30 would.

Yahweh is a new one, I will use that. It'll either make sound educated or insane. However, @busabeast and @Buckster, no religion!

Washing the Scrambler, today, getting ready for something on the weekend with Sofia's club, I noticed a little bit of poor design. Look where the plug to put oil in the engine is:

It was just the sheer amount of beastly greasy shmoo I had to clean out. Plus it was hot and I stood in dog shite. Perfect storm on what should have been pretty straightforward.

Spent all day swearing at the CBF600. New JT sprockets and Xfam chain.
