A shame really because disappearing into the distance is the ultimate accolade to your building skills .

I sold my GSXR 1100 at 43,000 miles with as much meat on the rear pads as the day it left the factory .

And another .

It's a good job it's not retrospective although I expect that's on the cards in the next few decades . Having ridden near the back of a convoy of 30+ Harleys on a summer evening I can report that the fumes made me nauseous and caused my eyes to sting . Still a good laugh though .

There are four of them in the UK at present . F**k knows what ordinance they have on board but they're ready for when the Ukraine kicks off .

Pardon my ignorance but why does it matter ?

Crikey ! I suggest that everyone check theirs immediately , you could definitely be on to something here .

Some empty lay-bys are more empty than others . This one hasn't got a bin , a porn cache or even a bottle of fermented Polish piss .

Much as I enjoy science fiction and stargazing , I honestly believe that this is nothing more than a collosal vanity project , just as the Apollo Program was a vanity project in a nationalistic arena . There is no way that humanity is ever going to migrate to " Another Earth " because the distances and the radiation make it impossible to survive the journey .

So I have to give up my petrol powered bike and buy an electric vehicle that uses a battery made in a factory owned by this c**t who thinks it's ok to burn thousands of gallons of toxic chemicals just for his own amusement and profit ? He can stick his rockets and his little satellites up his arse .

Sports Direct has Karrimor waterproof tops that make excellent motorcycle over jackets . I always take mine with me on touring holidays . They are also very effective at reducing wind chill when the temperature drops at night . https://www.sportsdirect.com/karrimor-sierra-weathertite-jacket-mens-442022?cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=10653972640&cq_term=&cq_plac=&cq_net=g&cq_plt=gp&gclid=CjwKCAiA6Y2QBhAtEiwAGHybPWEmI68MvBTFsId7Nd8Vjw_H5qG9tCEnT1y4SXxZz8NMvS3ysIr_MhoC0xEQAvD_BwE#colcode=44202203

Meanwhile at Castle Donington another one is almost finished and ready to meet the godless hoards who would make slaves of us all .

Not unknown for a two stroke to run backwards .

Sorry , didn't bother looking at the other posts but , yes , it's a BSA Bantam plunger frame .

The easiest way of achieving a flawless repair to a chrome petrol tank is to take your right ( Or left ) hand and thrust it deep into your trouser pocket . And then check out this website . https://www.chromerestorationspecialist.co.uk/projects/chrome-petrol-tank-repair/

After a week or two of agonising pain , drastic weight loss and yellow eyeballs .... Yes .

A very good point and one that I have raised myself in the past . Never leave coolant lying about unattended because it is deadly poisonous to dogs and cats and any other animals that happen to drink it . Apparently it is even quite paleatable .

Around £650 . Which is cheaper than I expected .

Loch Ewe , assembly area for the Arctic Convoys .

I use Shwalbe Marathon tyres with an anti puncture Kevlar strip on my pushbike . I've literally ridden the tread of these things and I've never had a puncture . Highly recommended .

Have you ever wondered how cheap Chinese motorbikes in the Third World are able to carry enormous loads without the wheels collapsing ?

Exactly . I had to do the same with my 125 Benley .

You can stick a patch on a motorcycle inner tube . It's just like a bicycle only bigger .
