Zx6r p8f, has a yoshimura exhaust now

Looks evil, reg is American style

Look on the bright side - on the Multistrada forum there's an American guy who keeps a pistol in his tank bag. Now that's the response to a SMIDSY. Trouble is though in the States probably half the car drivers have one too!

 

On the Harley Davidson Forum there is an entire section devoted to firearms .

Yamy is Virgin

Most bikes can get away from the lights quicker than most cars. Anything over 80mph (overall) is too risky for speeding penalties. Hence, I look for mid range grunt. Being able to overtake in a couple of seconds is where real world riding is at.

Fully agree, could not say better

I need 160Bhp with 140Nm torque

That’s why I got superduke

Usually I just pop their tyres with big knife if they don’t move

Yes for every day riding is more important how much torque and power you have in most used rpm range (3000-5000), than peak power.

It looks to me you are missing clutch release spring, at least I don’t see it on your photo.

No it's not missing anything .

I was sure it should be there, I had the same on my kawi, pic is of broken one

If anyone on the forum works in HR for a Scottish based shipping company please look away now.

Someone decided it would be a good idea to send me to Rotterdam where I can get a Covid test and then quarantine in a hotel until the result or until the ship berths.

So firstly I don't get the right information as to where I shall be collected from at Amsterdam airport. After 2 hours someone turns up. I then get transported to Rotterdam and check into an admittedly nice hotel. Agent's rep says it's a 10 minute walk to clinic so off I trot. 2 miles later I find clinic and it is CLOSED. Turns out it's closed all weekend and the earliest I MIGHT get tested is Monday! I am somewhat pissed off.

To add insult to injury all the bars here are heaving and social distancing is a joke. Haven't seen a mask since I left the airport.

Could be worse though I suppose.

That’s standard in cruise industry, they give me just address, hotel, office what ever. Than you have to get there by yourself. No agents no nothing, but in all this years I got use to it actually prefer this way. Not to mention that I was pissed of in the beginning as was use to agency service.

Budget?

 

Probably £3-400 once I’ve paid the lad’s uni accommodation.

For that money you can get good stuff

Not good at all, as you cooling down it will hurt more, so yes better to go to AE

That’s true, if your job is in front of computer you need proper chair.

Good one cost a lot, I ordered one for my office (ship office), it was 800€, fortunately on ship account.

Those cracks shouldn’t be a problem but 4 years it is a time to get new tyre, even if not used tyres loses some of their flexibility and grip, silica in the tyre get old and tyre become “plastic”.

Just finished first week of quarantine, another week to go. And then quarantine again, we are restricted to the ship ether we are in port. It will be interesting 3 months

I use wireless Sound bar, it connects to anything via Bluetooth, using iPhone, iPad and MacBook, decent quality, was around 90-100 £ Few years ago

It happened to me 10 or so years ago, I received actually a phone call and they start to ask some questions like survey or so, by the time I start to smell some shit my phone account was empty. And what is worst I did put some money on the phone again and after a minute or so got message that my account is empty again. Fortunately I didn’t put more money on it and I had to change my sim.

I report it and as per phone company money went somewhere in Caribbean.

How they did it I have no idea

We started celebrating a month before the end, different times, it was 1988

If we made more efficient use of existing technology there would be no need for all this electric Tom Foolery.

I don’t think that efficiency has anything with what is going on. Thing that Electrical/ecological interest groups are prevailing at the moment. They are getting stronger and soon will overrun oil interest groups.

If u are fit enough (and doing paragliding I suppose u are), why not to consider electric bicycle

Just looking at the Puch Maxi. Looks very similar and could do the job. It’s more like a bicycle and should fit easily onto a bicycle carrier on the tow ball. I don’t think it would be too heavy, would it? How heavy is a Puch Maxi?

A big, important question: it’s only got a 50 mL engine. What sort of hill can I go up. I’m 75 kg. Any ideas anyone?

Any serious hill you will not be able to get there, especially not with jour paraglider if 18 kg.
