  1. Well I fitted a UK legal Delkevic titanium S-Oval end can on my Hornet today. I am pretty pleased with it to be honest, sounds good, fair bit deeper but not obnoxiously loud. I don't think it makes much if any difference to power but it sounds faster . Original end can was 7kg the new one is 1.45kg.
  2. I'm not the one trying to convince everyone I am taller than I actually am. Also I don't have a Busa.
  3. My mate who is short arse rides an Indian as that is the only thing he can flat foot @ 5’ 6”

    Look at the thumbnail, bloody great turbo on the back of that Harley.

    Come on the 125 dropped a gear at the beginning of the vid. If it was a Gixxer 1000 it would have been off like a stabbed rat. .

    Pretty sure it was an older Suzuki GSXR125R with the maximum 15 BHP. Pretty sure its the same bike as one of Shadows mates has.
  8. My CBF600S has the wrong colour front brake callipers. They have obviously been replaced at some point with callipers from a naked CBF600N which are black not gold. They are functionally identical and work fine but it is getting on my tits that it’s wrong. So for no other reason than to satisfy my OCD, I am going to replace them. I got a second hand set of gold callipers from eBay for £27 and at the same time I ordered a rebuild kit for them for £34 from Wemoto. I started stripping and cleaning the callipers up today and to my surprise they are pretty good. All threads perfect and pistons appear spotless. I am waiting for the tool to come to get them out and polish them up. I know there are other ways to get the pistons out but I wanted the right tool which is coming tomorrow. I would guess that I don’t really need to replace the seals but I am going to because I have the new ones on the bench. First attempt at cleaning has brought them up quite well. There are a few minors blemishes here and there but I think the callipers will look fine once they are on the bike, after all it is 18 years old. Of course there will be more cleaning before I fit the new seals. Before anyone pipes up, if this is boring fuck off and read about Marcy’s adventures. I am a bike geak and I like this sort of stuff.
  9. Just stop oil for me, no oil no bikes. Some cyclists are arrogant arsewipes but they aren't campaining to get me off my bikes or want to take away my car.

    I think BSA have learnt from the fuck up on the original over pricing of the Goldstar. I think for 3.5k the Bantam is a bargin. Proven bike sold for several years as a Jawa. Looks right to. Also the Scrambler is something people want. Now if that did a trials version of the Bantam that would sell hand over fist. Lot of people rolling around on modest small capacity bikes now, mostly old fuckers but I don’t mind that. More of us young or old has got to be a positive.
  11. This place is getting very rainbows and unicorns lately Oh and congratulations Nute. Great picture
  12. They are spendy as fuck as well, be cheaper to do a DAS course and get the real thing.
  13. It’s a bloody abomination is what it is
  14. Hope the bill doesn't sting to much
  15. Oh well, never mind. Talk about setting yourself up for failure.
  16. Surely the whole point of BOTM is to get out to somewhere scenic on your bike and look. for a good photo opportunity. To have a bit of fun and share the experience. I think you missing the point of the exercise.
