Not compering your daughter and my misses but evening primrose seems to take the edge off.

Look after your rear suspension on the dominator there's practically nothing available for them collar wise now that includes the one that holds the swingarm on 

 Started doing the black one up last year, maybe I'll keep it for spares instead.

Did you try cleaning the seals first Bob

Spooky you mention that. Both dominator seals and one on the TDM have just had the cleaning tool run around, cleaned and reassembled, will see how they go before replacing.

Those cb125fs are reasonably trouble free but made in India. Like to think they've got the probs they had with the earlier bikes sorted now but the cg125 was a better bike at the time. She'll love it.
I shouldn't be surprised at what they're going for now but I am.

Superb album 

Real clear sounding album too.

It's okay, I wasn't able to hold the camera far enough away to get it all in the frame.

Are we talking heads 

Looking at the barrel and head it looks to have a small stroke so I guess they were going for revs more than power.

Bloody woke crap, think us older gen wouldn't see it so bad if it wasn't force fed from every direction.

I was just jesting about the NHS  saving money, the care he has had, and is still receiving is1st class, regular testing and regular chats with his treatment team, and he is happy that they are doing all that they can for him.

I think most would say that. The shop floor doing the best they can with the trickle of cash available.

I'll get some tomorrow, had a go at getting the pistons out of the calipers today, they are stucky stuck, my mate doesn't like to blast them with compressed air so I'll keep soaking them but I think that the air might have to be.

I normally push the pistons out as far as pos using the hydraulics, then take them off the bike. Gives you a good head start with removing them in the shed.
Bit late to tell you that 

I couldn't carry it either.

They're helping and fixing the car, don't really want to be complaining and causing trouble.

Currently in Copenhagen and it’s lovely. No litter, cheap public transport ( that actually works), park your bike and it’s still there when you go back to it, great bars, no obnoxious twats, no pot holes … it’s lovely, tho a bit cold. 

The misses is heading over there this afternoon for a couple of days.

No doubt with Khans blessing.

There is a causeway at low tide, but I don't think it is open to the public now.  It was in the past but like everywhere down here it got to overcrowded in the summer.  I think only residents and deliveries can use it now.  

Yes we went in the summer and it was heaving. Was low tide so we walked over.

Interesting bike from Voge, think it 's a bit expensive given its a Chinese bike.  Looks good though, wouldn't spend my cash on it but each to their own.  And yes Shad Man I know she is not Neevesy, so don't get offended just don't watch it.  

 

Apart from repeating herself a number of times I didn't mind the review.
As said, give it some miles then we get to see how good or bad it is.

Cheers Saul. Brought back some memories when we were there.

One being dropping the S10 with the daughter on the back turning into the holiday let.

Strat stop and auto handbrake could be related to the clutch position switch but a quick diag will show that up.
Nice car but you're gonna bite your hand off when you scrape them wheels on the curbs. Stupid oversized tyres will bankrupt you.

160kg isn’t that much for a 650 that’s meant to be competent on the road. A XR400 is 140 or something like that.

Admittedly I was compering it to my dominator as it shares parts so maybe 160kg is a bit better than 178kg.

I couldn't afford one anyway but what sticks in my mind is its weight. Are we looking back with the rose tints on?

Skilled Rider....

Mmmm, he's riding nothing. 

Didn't' busa say he was going away for the week driving?

Yeh......but there are a lot of places that I get to where there's no connection whatsoever.

I thought the connection maybe a prob for you.

Mandi takes her work laptop with her when we go anywhere, if the connections bad we can often hotspot one on our phones to get her going.

I'll pipe in here, nothing you can't do with a laptop and a good connection?

Centre front. If that's her right boob fallen over, where the right one gone.
What's funnier is me copying the pose to make sure I've got the left and right sorted.
