Can’t argue with that logic. I didn’t know what was going on either

That's got to be BS ... Harley have never made anything that powerful ...

Ok, it was yesterday but I was waiting for photos. So we did the 'Santas on a bike' ride yesterday, all proceeds go to a children's hospice in Bristol. It was an amazing turnout considering the weather and good fun was had by all, the route was 18 miles in length and took us through Bristol with lots of peeps coming out to see it.

The fit & finish on my CFMoto 650Tr (2014 model) was very good, nothing corroded, rusted or fell off! After 5 years of ownership it stood as good as the day I bought it. But it was let down by the shitty Ducati Veglia electrics. It only lived on for 6 months (dodged that bullet ) after the new owner acquired it from me, I think it has gone to the scrappers now, no sign of it on the DVLA website. But buying another CFMoto would not worry me (not like I can afford one ) in the slightest.

Nah ones a bath for Midgets

Visited my friend who is a mechanic for a coffee today, looking nicely old school today

Id have to say @Sir Fallsalot for also flouncing... theres my nomination

I can't take it, the guys from MCN, Cycle World, Motorrad and Motociclismo don't leave me alone in anticipation to this.

If anyone's interested, I've bought a CF450MT, straight from paddy field land. PROS......Fecking cheap CONS....... Bugger all ...we'll maybe the tyres Truth is I really can't fault it off the shelf , one or two bits need that personal touch coz I ride like a twat 1...rally seat 2...better sump guard 3...better hand guards 4... rash bars 5....and tyres If you haven't tried a chincky special its really worth a try

That's MR. f*cking cyborg to you NumbSkull!....but my friends call me Capt. Hook. How do you think I feel trying to survive on Social Security Disability?...ya big Barge riding, 2-legged wooly Mammoth.

Out for a walk with Paolo and the neighbours dogs. Stopped for a coffee so parked my leg up for a while.........

Marcel after changing his name to @Vamana Gupta (which is Hindi for “secret dwarf” btw) is very close to his annual flounce, I would say it was a play for TOTY except I have been dealing with the unstable twat for too long and can see him teetering on the edge of the precipice. You are all free to give him a push.

At least I'm not a RIGHT CUNT

Ironic that you claim to have a cousin from an area where people are known for inbreeding.

Dog ate the phone?

In Canada they are banning retired people from the internet.

Had a few more hours playing Sprints today either side of a two hour Zoom meeting with a Psychologist for one of the brood. TBH tinkering with the Sprint is doing a good job of keeping me happy. I started off tidying up the bodywork and painting the mirrors, also swapped the Kawasaki mirror for a Triumph one. You would probably never notice that the mirror was Kawasaki but I knew so it had to go While that was drying I stripped the dash and decided to paint that as well Looking a bit tired to me so need freshening up. Then moved on to replace the rear brake light switch and wire it in as I couldn’t find a Triumph replacement. Also replaced the cheapie chonky indicators with some more but this time with smoked lenses. I thought about getting some original Triumph indicators but they were £80 and butt ugly. I actually quit like the look of the smoked out ones. Took a surprisingly long time but I had to de-bodge the wiring and get busy with the dielectric grease. Also got the old faded beat up clocks off and got some nicer replacements, don’t care about the mileage change, no intention of selling and if I was ever to do so it would go with both sets. Had this come in the post, don’t know if I will use it but I am seriously tempted. I saw one with a black plate the other day and I thought it looked cool but don’t know if I want to risk getting stopped which is pretty unlikely given where I live. Tomorrow should get it all back together. I have to sort the tickover out then I can do some getting to know it rides.

Holly, or Holy?................. one could be a bit prickly.

My name is Vamana Im from New Deli , I ride a Harley Davidson made rigight here in India , Im a chief security officer for a telacom network company... Ive been off work for 2 weeks now , I took a swim in the Yamuna river , and got second degree burns all over my body...my pupes even fell all out...found this site by accident...Hello again from India !

It would be a very short fight, especially for @Marcel given that he is a midget.

That would make his eyes water

Went out for my first proper ride on the Sprint today. I had been out before but only did 6 miles. Anyway turned out to be eventful. The bike started and ran well up to Damerells motorcycles which is 20 miles from me. No particular reason for going there just a destination and a chance to look at some shiny things. I was quite chuffed with the run up but the bike didn’t tick over when I pulled up to Dameralls. I tried turning the tickover knob clockwise but it just turned like it wasn’t attached to anything. Not ideal, it had worked before. I headed off after mooching around Dameralls and the bike started fine with a hint of choke. Apparently T300’s are quite cold blooded, it didn’t move far off the bottom of the temperature gauge unless I was in slow traffic. As I used the acceleration lane to join the A30 out of Dameralls I felt a hint of clutch slip. But rode normally up to and maybe a little more than the national speed limit without issue until I left the A30 10miles later. Then I noticed clutch slip again just a hint but it was there. A few miles on the bike cut out, I switched to reserve and it fired right up again. So two things the fuel tap appears to be working fine but the fuel light doesn’t. It will come on when you turn on the ignition but that appears to be the only time. I went a topped up and the bike took 15 litres. Leaving the fuel station clutch started to slip again worse than before in the lower gears now as well. The following 5 miles home it genuinely felt like touch and go if I would make it. So I can see a carb strip In my future and a new clutch. Not to worried about doing the clutch as I had planned to take the covers off to paint them at the next service. Think I have some research to do on the carbs but I have watched a couple of vids and it doesn’t look to onerous. I have cleaned and balanced carbs in the past. We shall see. Still really like the bike just got to get it reliable.

Will do, its a personal thing but after Christmas ill be upgrading the clutch getting crash bars , solid sump guard, acerbis hand guards, airbox upgrade and tyres and possibly a full aftermarket exhaust system

Dam dog !!

I've been following the Aussies testing them, and these boys sure know how to push a bike to the limits. they don't seem to break , I've only done 1000kms or so maybe 50kms of road (needs better tyres) there's a slight choppieness on anc off the throttle but almost cured with a 15t front sprocket, bloody beautiful on road ,proper chuckable, sits proper happy at 110kph with enough guts to wind up to 140, even though when sat on it the bike feels wide but on the pegs its lost from view and the standard suspension eats up the firt ....OK its not WP but does the. Once I get some better tyres ill push it harder in the woods to test its limits and defo taking it to the Pyrenees, ohh yes it has around 400km tank range

I'll just vote for me sen coz I know what im like

I tried to find him on Facebook so I could call him a pussy but was unsucessful

I think you ride alone because really you have no friends....

Nobody has nominated you, though. Which definitely gives you the title of sad twat.

I use coolblack, try engineering tool firm. Every thing must be clean,,i sand/grit blast and use brake cleaner to de-grease ..cover the parts in Cool black and leave over night. Once black enough remove and wash in deionised water drop in clean oil for and hour or so..Leave to drip dry, buff up. Or i used to use to do Ali stuff to but that used very nasty chemicals that could and WOULD burn you, so i gave it all away. But not difficult to do at home. As long as you a safe place to do away from dickheads. Lyn.

Strong argument Bob. I miss the silly fucker though

I'm voting for @Six30 for chastising people who flounce only to do it himself

I'll nominate @Saul, for always posting uplifting posts and his positive take on motorcycling, improving his bikes and doing maintenance on bikes for a team of teenagers!

Well Pedro was also my # 1 , but Ill have to nominate Saul , he's been active and seems to be and all around good guy...still got that dam song playing in my head this morning...Thanks Nute !!

This shit isn't funny anymore....the bastard even changed my user name now....

He has crocs as well, he is trying to be @Marcel.

Want to here something funny....well maybe not , one of my boys called yesterday telling me his mother got scammed by a substantible amount ....9 g in total...kinda feel bad for her , man really thought she wouldn't fall for those telephone scams....its pretty ironic now that Im a indian scamer...lol. Then I started thinking when I separate, boys were 18 , far from being self sufficient, they weren't till 23 or so...she never dish out one dime for them...not money , clothes, supplies anything for them... Maybe its carma?

they had an OHC motor but no oil feed to the cam, they lasted about 20,000 miles if the oil was changed every other week.. I know i had to *ucking work on them.
