Husqvarna Svartpilen 401: is it a reliable motorbike?
Mr Fro replied to pietrofrapoli's topic in Motorbike Chat
Looks a bit like one of those dogs that have had their tail chopped off. -
Is that TC?

Continued: adjusting idle speed to compensate for lean engine condition??
Mr Fro replied to potatobroxd's topic in Pitstop
Lowering the idle speed will do knack all to the air fuel ratio on any part of the rev range. All it will do is potentially provide slightly more engine braking. You can have the engine remapped - you may need a new ECU for this... Before you do anything, have a look and see if your bike has a lambda/oxygen sensor. If it has then the fuelling should take care of itself i.e. run within safe parameters. This also may be why you noticed a difference in performance directly after fitting - the ECU was learning. -
Oh shit, I'm down to my last forty odd bottles of beer. Whatever shall I do?! Oh yeah, I know I'm brewing up a stout next.

They can't even breathe under water, they have to keep coming up the whole f*cking time and spouting.

Just have a look on YouTube - loads of great over unity/perpetual motion devices that give out free energy.

How do those of us with no gas and insufficient electricity infrastructure run our homes then? Oil is the only option and it's not so bad if you have a high efficiency one (as I do).
-
Oh alright then... Similar power outputs so should be a close one.
-
That is incredible... Cardiff has the electricity now? This really is the future.
-
... And how will the electricity get to us? Single phase won't do the bizzo so we'll all have to be upgraded to 3-phase. I'm off to buy a big f**k-off milling machine.

Yeah grandad, all the kids do nowadays is slap on some monster stickers and disco light LEDs to gain max Insta cred.

Doubt it'll happen. Way too easy to tamper with.

Did anyone else initially read the title as "Arse Biscuit"?

My spidey senses are tingling?

Please tell me you're not riding like that Suicide clutch. What's not to like?

Small Paint booth experiment
Mr Fro replied to linuxrob's topic in Old Motorbikes, Projects and Restorations
I hope you've got a brushless motor in that fan! -
True dat. I only do clutchless shifting (up and down like a pro) because my gloves are so f*cking expensive.
-
Yep, they were fine - much better than I was expecting if I'm honest. People have their biases and although I got my first set neutrally, the PR range are my preferred tyre. I even fit Pilot Sport 4 to my car because of how good the bike tyre is. I'm interested in trying some others but I think it would be difficult to do a meaningful real world test. Plus, at ~£200 a set it isn't going to be cheap!

What's the most popular soup at Jamie Oliver's restaurants?
-
Just guessing but I think it may have seen a while ago... The LDV400 hasn't been made for quite a while and nowadays £30 of fuel would be a drop in the tank if one of those...
-
Thanks for the info [mention]Gerontious[/mention], I didn't know all that!
-
Nice write up. [ignorance] What is it with the wheels then? I thought that tubed tyres would be better for off roading and such - easier to sort a major puncture, no? [/ignorance]

His name wasn't Paddy by any chance was it? Surely it makes the wood stink.

So what. He doesn't want 4 shit bikes, he wants a good one.
