The Rotax engine is assembled by Loncin in China! Just because a Chinese person assembled the engine doesn't make it a Chinese engine! If you're using that as the yardstick, then if your Gay Harley engine was assembled by a Mexican guy in the factory then your bike is Mexican. BMW, as I understand it, use the Chinese to assemble a lot of their engines.....including cars. But they are not Chinese engines as you well know. "The new G650GS is essentially the 2007 single-cylinder F650GS brought back into production with some minor modifications and with the engine assembled by Loncin in China instead of Rotax in Austria, but still using parts manufactured by Rotax in Europe". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_G650GS

No.....it's a Rotax engine! Exactly as it was when it was the F650. And later models of those were actually assembled in Taiwan by Kymco.

Can you clarify what parts are Chinese then Ian?

The Spanish spoken here in Andalucia is very different in terms of accent to that of Latino Spanish. Plus there's the Swansea accent as well......which will create more confusion. But strange as it sounds, I can understand Latino Spanish when it's spoken much easier than Andalucian! Because they don't leave letters, and sometimes half the word itself out. And then just slur or chant what remains of it. As I was told by an educated (very rare) Spanish friend.......Andalucian is the lazy man's way of speaking Spanish. And by fuck are they lazy.......it's a national sport. Learning Spanish in rural Andalucia is the equivalent to learning English in Glasgow!

Why?

Buck unfriended you on FaceButt?

......and he's Unstable of course!

Says Mullet Man from Ponty!

We've lost FOM Pedro........we can't go anywhere now other than Britain!

Go anywhere near the coast and you get stuck with knuckle dragging dumbass Brits. We saw enough of them during the 4 months we spent on the Mar Menor!

Too bastard cold to do anything.......and more shit to come!

We need DA and Beemer Bummer and the circle will be complete!

So would this be a fair summary of the current state of play back there?

After two weeks of being stagnant in temps down to -7, along with a shitfest of rain, snow and ice......the Beemer needed firing up! Would it start......or would it explode? This is the Style......

Looks great! If my circumstances in life were different I'd be well up for that!

Good to see you Eric!

I had the soles repaired on my normal Spring/Summer boots the Summer before last. Cost about €20 and I'll probably get another 15+ years out of them. Which is more than I can confidently say about me really!

That settles it once and for all!

I think this public information film about Coronavirus from the 70's is just as relevant today......

But we have Cameras! Loadsa Fucking Cameras!

Have numbers dropped Alan?

You're 7 behind now @Tym........you may have the drop on me with teeth.......but you're lagging behind on the charisma! You need to get out on the Back 40 and start busting a few caps!
