I've discovered that the best way to scare off the little bastards begging for sweets is to answer the door naked... oh, there's some more arrived... disguised as policemen this time...

Ginger midget Twat

Today, i have mostly been playing with a chinese 2L turbo engine and autobox from our latest SSV

Let me introduce you to Hendrix Rain....my 1st GREAT grandson. He weighed just under 7 lbs. & is doing quite well. Gotta make an effort to go see him next year down in NM...

Another scooter day today, brekkie, tapas and 200 klms of twisty tarmac.

Went into Yarmouth this morn to watch the service. Mandi picked me up on the way home so we could get a breakfast. Pic was a little late sorry.

Many thanks all...You may not think it but it does help:

@Clive you ok mate ??

my Psychologist suggested that I write letters to the people I hate and then burn them. I've done that, but still don't understand what I should do with the letters...

Well my T300 Hinckley was delivered today. it is old and was cheap but I am chuffed to bits with it. Somebody has thrown a lot of money in consumables at it in the last couple of years. Starts on the button and sounds as sweet as these things ever get. I have no history apart from what I can glean from the DVLA MoT check. I can see a lots of tinkering in my future.

General chat reached 100,000 posts today, Pete would have liked that.

got out for an hour on the bike yesterday, nearly home whn i came across 2 "yoofs" on mobylettes ( 50cc bikes) they were busy dismanteling one of the bikes so I stoppe to see if I could help. They'd somehow managed to stripp the threads of the exhaust header fitting to the cylinder. They had a good selection of tools with them, and didn't seem overy phased by the situation. I went and got an assortment of bolts and washers from the nearby hardware store for them and left them to it. As night was falling I did check they had phones to call someone if they couldn't fix it. lovely day for a spin

I am going out!

I have a lathe and a milling machine and used to make Yokes and other bits for people...But the cost of Ali is such that it could well be cheaper to get an engineering firm to Lazar cut a top yoke..Just a thought. If you have a good engineering drawing it could workout not too expensive ..and repeatable ... Just looked at my supplier for Ali a lump of Ali 4" wide and 2" thick..( smallest length is 1mt ) is £257.80p Then the drawing and electric even if i did it for cost..See what you are up-against!! bloody inflation ... I am Shaw you will find anther Honda bike with top yoke that would work. Lyn..trying hard to keep my mind off life at the Mo.

Good luck with that.... Everything I set out to do to mine takes 5 times as long as I think it will, hence it's mostly still in bits all over the garage floor

Bought a new project today. Being delivered next Wednesday

Something like this would be better.

After weeks in the garage @busabeast finally finishes the modifications on the mx 5 https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1CZ8uvHaw5/

Bbrraaaaaaaaaappp………bloody thing makes you ride like a twat. No change there then?

Collected the scooter and took it for a spin. Stopped by my mates place en route for a brew…………it’s addictive this twist and go lark Already been scouring the usual places for unnecessary bling and I can confirm it’s mostly chavtastic. Bring it on!

Short version: blowing the pastor went well but he still didnt get the job

Won’t have the scoot in time so this will have to make do

I may have a better one, but on the poota, which i dont have with me right now.

Don’t worry Pedro I still support BoM

So you can get on it?

Not the first old guy doing bike maintenance for a younger woman in exchange for "favours".

Had a visitor while I was putting the bike away.

Oooh lucky me I’ve found one

Well ive got two...I'll delete one ..Just not sure at the moment.

They were seen putting the clocks back at Stonehenge this morning.

This is waiting in the wings, as soon as the Daelim sells. Not this actual scoot, but one nigh on identical.

So……..scooter? Oh yes, the dealer wanted €1,999 but I managed to secure the deal for €1,700 including the cost of transfer. Happy days so should be able to pick it up one day next week…………and it’s still gonna be faster away than any heap of chromed wank @Buckster toot, toot!

All fixed

It’s been a while since posting folks. Been a bit tied up with life generally and other shite but just sold my venerable old Yamaha FZ6N today. Sad to see it go but still got the Benelli TRK502X so can’t complain……….however, in an effort to keep kilometres off the car and Benelli I’m in the market for a scooter Off to see a Kymco 500 on Saturday……….bbraaaaaaaaap! I can see a lairy paint job on the horizon!
