Looks proper chavvy, that!

You used to, in big cities.

Seems you’re all about saying no

It's a 16 year old KTM, do you think they use the same engine now?

Closet? We wish!

It would be the lack of engine breaking that would make hesitate in getting one over a 4 stroke. On today’s bike you can get the engine to be as tame as you want.

Work accident, Marcel?

I would keep to the BMW service intervals, as a maximum, oil is cheaper than metal. Change it when you get it back on the road. Or check your Toyota’s service manual to see what should be done on your motorcycle, if that makes sense. It doesn’t to me.

If it’s been untouched since 2019, all that could go wrong has already happened. Worry about it when you get it going, or you’ll just end up doing the same thing twice. Doing stuff to it now, without a few proper runs to eliminate humidity before storing it again will hurt more than do good. Oil does get acidic from contact with combustion and fuel residues, humidity and time, hence it’s usually advised to change the oil yearly if you care about the engine and it gets little use. If the 10 or 15 Euros it costs to buy some cheap oil to put in it while not running is too much of an expense just let it be and do it when getting it to go again.

It’ll feel shit on the road, though, like all dirtbikes do when ridden out of their environment.

Here the current influx of new people to the country seem to have demanded new vacancies. They scratched off inactive users to do that, maybe as a naughty accountancy cleanup.

On other news, I seem to have lost my doctor. That’s what you get in Portugal when you don’t get sick very often

Da fuck! It’s just wrong to surprise people like this. I thought you were having another grandchild or a new bike.

Probably in Spain too, but a car like that would be murder on Pete’s wife’s back.

I have heard that most girls learn to do challenging things in a very different way than boys. The way they see a challenge and learn to conquer it reward a different approach than boys. Doesn’t mean it’s worse or better, but good job on you to get through to her.

An enduro bike will get your van all muddy or dusty inside, though!

Yes, have a few drinks and hop on something with one wheel that accelerates according to your balance!

What do you mean by road work on it, @Six30? You take roadbikes on a van, so get an EXC and drive it to near where you want to ride. Here people ride any WRF or CRF or EXC with average care, and they seem to be ok and pretty much bulletproof. There’s a guy on Sofia’s town that rides a CRF250F to commute locally and it keeps going around.

Holy shit, never knew about that! For racing that would be the case for everything, maybe the only exception being sailing?

True Detective, first season is great, second and third lost my interest after one episode, but watching fourth now and I like it.

I think it’s the worst movie I remember watching over the last few years.
