Oi! …………..made the repair today so I’ll give it a couple of days and I’ll fill it up with distilled water and see if the fucker leaks!
-
Not like they are in Andalusia and the Valencia region. We had nearly 20 hours of extremely strong winds and pouring rain but luckily the only damage was our gazebo roof which was torn off and shredded. Needed a new one anyway. No local flooding either. We were on the edge of the storm luckily.

No chance of submitting anything as the fucker is still in the garage until I can get to sort it on Monday……….well, that’s the plan but anything can happen between now and Monday

That’s the plan Bob, fingers crossed

Coolant leak but nothing simple like a split hose. If I can fix it with a bit of ingenuity and make sure it works fine I’ll part exchange it for something as new as possible. If the ‘fix’ doesn’t work properly then it’ll be sold for spares or repairs……….that should satisfy @Buckster’s holier than thou attitude

Finally managed to get over to the Yamaha dealer to see if the bit need is available. Seems not and they were not interested in fixing it in any other way e.g. a bodge. So, off to buy a small bit of metal tube of some kind to fit in the hole and then apply shit loads of JB Weld to see if that holds it in place. It should do as it’s pretty potent stuff by all accounts. Once set and cured it’ll be back on with the hose and see if the bastard leaks. Fingers crossed it doesn’t so I can at least part ex it for a new(ish) bike………now don’t worry, I’m not about to start a Pete-style poll!

Having undertaken a quick visit to the UK last week to start the process of Power of Attorney for my old man I’ve been absolutely knackered since I got back. It so fucking stressful so today I thought fuck it, get the mountain bike out! Can’t get to the Yamaha dealer until later in the week to see if I can get the part to fix the old Yamaha without bodging it (it may come to that! ). ……..the UK was expensive, miserable and depressing

Returning Rider Looking for advice from the wise and good!
Skippy replied to Jimbo 64's topic in INTRODUCTIONS
A mate of mine had the Benelli 502c for a while and absolutely loved it. Comfortable, plenty of poke and it looks different but luggage is a bit limited I think. Maybe the 350 Meteor or the Hunter could be a good option. Also the Leoncino 500 goes well. -
Oi…….i resemble that remark.

I think he’s stalling, can’t see my lovely broken bike at the head of the pack yet.

I can sense the disappointment

Get in!!!!

All four of them are cunts. Smug fucking faces need gouging with a blunt instrument.
