No mate, not allowed anything like that at the moment.

That's what her mother is doing, all my fault.

I know, I'm proper chuffed for her really it was exactly what I did at her age. I have warned her though any trouble brought to the door through anti social behaviour will have consequences. But TBH she isn't like that.

Shadow out with her mates. There are still plenty of younger bikers down here. She was second inline riding out.

Some great pictures Skip, thanks for sharing them. Keen to hear how its going with the TRK.

There is a story which I won't bore you with but I will be stripping the forks this week so will be on it soon.

Yeah it had a Pro Link. Shame really with a decent paint job and black frame would be a unique and interesting motor.

Yeah it doesn't look right, especially with the red frame and black Honda Badge. Judging by the side panels it is a CBX F2 without the fairing. I know it sounds daft but the bike actually looked quite diminutive next to more modern stuff. Still one lump of a motor though.

Out with the Fowey seniors, 7 of us with combined age approaching 450 Up to Kitt Hill for the 1st of the month bike meet. Some interesting bikes there but there always is Not a massive fan of what has been done to this CBX but it is out there being ridden which a lot aren’t. After Kitt Hill we headed off to Tavistock for a look around a vintage fair but no bikes. After that up to Dartmoor and Princetown for a drink then home. About 90 miles but good ride. Weather a bit changeable on the moor. Had a new chap turn up this week with a triple Shaded 500X Pete would have loved it

Funnily enough there was a Baxi Burmuda like that in our house when we bought it. Donkey's years old but totally reliable and proper furnace, made the house very toasty. We got a.Bosch/Worcester Combi to replace it. Now 25 years old and still going strong but I do wonder for how much longer. You will save a lot on gas though with you new Combi.

Jealousy is an ugly thing

Keep on digging

Oh Dear I think you have bitten Well we all know what your go to is, and I never mentioned anything descriptive about the topic

Back peddling now

I know, she has all the gear but is at the age where she fucking knows everything

Cheers, still 2 to go according to the Dr but feeling much better for it already.

Your efforts at banter seem to be a bit limited to the same topic don't they

As I understand it she can do her A1 now A2 at 19 and A 2 years after her A2.

Just been outside servicing Shadows CB125F. Very easy and therapeutic to do. Valve clearances are still in spec at 9000 miles, everything else seems fine. So did plug filters and oil, chain tyre pressures and a good wash and GT85. I took it for a local loop then filled it up for her and now she is off again to burn it all. The bike had just under 2000 miles when she passed her CBT so she has been everywhere like a rash in the last 7 months. I am sometimes tempted to moan as i'm funding the fuel while she is at college but I was exactly the same at her age, hardly ever in. I have to say that the bike is much nicer to ride now she has fully run it in. Just a pleasant thing to bimble around on. It could also be responding for me much better now as I'm 3 stone lighter from the last time I rode it, so it could be that .

No bar end mirrors give it away

At the Miners Arms, Redruth on Saturday just gone for the County Championship game and we all laughed at this poor guy. He just went out for a quiet smoke with his mates and that lot struck up behind him. His face was a picture

I think that's the point, don't be disappointed with what you find on TikToc it's not for our generation. I see plenty of bikers around here especially in this weather and they cover the whole mix of society as far as I see with probably the emphasis on older men. Yes there are some girls and women but they are just as mixed as the lads. Some you could imagine on TikToc looking pretty some greasy munters belching and farting. All sorts.

Nah he's seen the new Flix Documentary about Fred West, making plans

Cheers! I have time for these big Yam V's I like the SCR950 l and Bulldog 1100 as well. Not so keen on the Harleyalikey cruiser things but put the motor in a proper chassis and to me it becomes much more interesting. Just something very different. That one sounded awesome when it came in with it's Akrapovic pipe.
