  1. Unions the one where they stick their fingers up each other’s arses. League is where they lie on top of each other and wriggle.
  2. Trent Lock Belvior Brewery Green Hipppos Sycamore Harley Davidson That’s the Midlands done.
  3. Wouldn’t it be the valves, not the carbs that would be an issue? Engines built to rely on lead in petrol suffer with eroded valve seats if using unleaded fuel, those with hardened valve seats take leaded or unleaded. So the question should be whether the CB400 has hardened valve seats or not?
  4. Only 2 years until the Euro’s, can’t wait !! Unless Brexit means we can no longer compete
  5. He was doing about 90mph when all this happened, bike was fine before. Is it a possibility that he could of lost them down the motorway? We'll have to check. Yeah, you might find them on the hard shoulder
  6. It has got a chain on it ?? If so is it adjusted properly? The sprockets aren’t rounded off?
  7. He is an unlikeable, misogynistic, racist, lying dick head though. What on earth is there anything to protest about?
  8. I’d love to live to hear my kids say “Hiya dad, do you need to borrow a few quid?”
  9. Take you keks off Put a mirror behind you and bend over Look over your shoulder -if you say ‘oh! ring ‘ there you have it Or not !!!
  10. It was ok Small but lots of people. Very hot Not sure I’d bother again, only 50 miles each way but the A5 is not one of my favourite roads.
  11. I nominate the driver of the unmarked police car who went across a x roads without stopping or slowing, lights flashing in grille and rear window, that I only saw when it was right in front of me. I know the junction well and always slow down as although I have right of way drivers creep out trying to get a better view, if I hadn’t slowed they’d of broad sided me, mised by about 30 feet which ain’t much at 50 mph. On the way home I followed the road they had come out of, it’s narrow with high hedges either side, there is no way they could of known it was clear - it took me an hour to stop shaking.
  12. That's the upper bush which is usually teflon coated copper . If its still there then the lower bush must have been so worn that it has passed right through it . What should happen is when you free the damper rod you yank on the fork and the lower bush hits the upper bush which drives the fork seal out all in one go . If you are replacing everything, you can now prize the seal up and out and mangle the bush by curling it inwards until it comes free. I used to lower bush to drive out the upper one no problem. This is inside the tube, where the damper rod seat is. Apparently it’s a shuttle valve, that can’t be removed without grinding the old tubes. All the other bushes and seals have come out ok.
  13. I’ve inquired with Philpotts ( another great link ) who say they can re- chrome with the shuttle valves in place Gonna cost £185 for the 2 ... ouch. Add on new bushes and seals, oil, powder coating the lower legs, this ain’t a cheap job !!
  14. I used to have a disc lock that had a pouch that clamped to the frame. Worth having a look to see if you’ve got a suitable mounting point ?
  15. According to the Sprint manufacturing site : You can buy a new tube for £99 and grind the end off the old one to get the parts out to swap over or pay £135 for one with the parts already in there. Neither option sounds great, so could I get these rechromed with out having to remove these parts ?
  16. Help / advice needed again. Having managed to remove the damper rod with my home made tool £14 delivered / had to buy 10 nuts and 1M of threade bar. Thanks for the tips and link I managed to drift out the nylon damping rod seat ( lying Haynes manual said it would drop out ) There now seems to be another captive seal within the tube This turns within the tube and had what I think is a hard plastic retainer, there is no mention of this in the Haynes Manual - should it be removed before going off for rechroming? Is so, how does it come out? Cheers.
  17. Well I kind of have to accept wot uv said but it’s tricky to believe that the first thing you’d say about an overweight man is fat munta. If it were a bloke I’d be more likely to just say tw*at. Attention seeking tw*t- male, female or inbetween however I’d quietly cheer on hearing! She's not fat any way ... 'Twas a silly comment by mickly Jesus Six, you not seen those thighs?? 70% of that persons weight is carried below the waist
  18. Nothing sexist about it, if it’d Been a fat bloke I’d have said the same !! Fat shaming.. guilty Sexist ... no way Well I kind of have to accept wot uv said but it’s tricky to believe that the first thing you’d say about an overweight man is fat munta.

In my world ‘Munter’ is used for either sex If I’d typed bitch / ho, or slag you would have been right to rebuke me.
  19. I would No surprise there

  21. What a fat munter - no wonder she dented the car !!
  22. I think it’s called brake fade. Riding the back brake too hard, or unintentionally over a period of time will cause it to over heat and lose feeling- never happened to me as I obviously don’t give the bakes a hard enough time. Hi
  23. That’s a fake photo... If it was real Ronaldo’s hand would be on Messi’s arse.
  24. My purpose built metal shed is counted as a garage for insurance purposes. Unfortunately they don’t make them any more. You can find others on the web, just make sure it’s not the sort that can be opened with a tin opener.
  25. On tomorrow, anyone going? It’s free. https://www.mkbikeshow.co.uk
