Cheers Stu I will do something. We are moving to an Airbnb in Stratford in the morning. As it is on the canal and near pubs I will take more pics and update when we get back if you want? Cheers Ian

Gotta say the gospel pass was lovely and I am sure I could bore you rigid with pics but if you get the chance and haven't been there before please do!! Cheers Ian

Today going to ride over gospel pass and aim to get lunch in Whitney on Wye then this evening pub dinner near Luggwardine. I am loving this weather and being lazy. Might look out for a tag or two as well. Cheers Ian

I found the hardest bit was deciding what the 3rd bike should be if I am honest. Good luck and I totally agree with @Gerontious on the W series and as I have ridden one the Enfield mentioned by @Davidtav is actually great fun (admittedly only hired for one day in Lanzarote so not the harshest of reviews). Cheers Ian

Having lived abroad and been involved in transactions where I couldn`t attend, at the very worst I would arrange for a friend or relative to turn up and show the bike/car to the prospective buyer and if they don`t like it or can`t attend I will readvertise or offer to someone else. As @Old-codger has rightly said there are too many scammers out there on both sides of the fence! Sorry but trust no fooker till money and documents are all sorted (That includes insurerers as well! Cheers Ian

Could also try a diet ! Just saying. Cheers Ian

Is "Hoot" what they say up there when they mean hot? Just because wild swimming when it`s not "hoot" wouldn`t be my idea of fun with or without a tent. Cheers Ian

Thought I would pick up a tag at an Applegreen garage on the way home from work as I don't see many about. Cheers Ian -
On the up side very easy to remove for normal use and save it for long trips. I confess a screen came with my Harley but I have never fitted it and cant believe I ever will (Standard silencers the same lol). Treat it like work clothing and "Remove before playtime" Cheers Ian

Hmm not sure about that look @gymwitch I think I would have gone for neck exercise classes before admitting defeat. Oh and before anyone accuses me of hypocrisy for riding the Busa with a screen the ZRX and Harley neither have them to any noticeble degree and those that know me will hopefully agree I don`t tend to dawdle on motorways and duals lol. Still if it works for you girl especially if you can make those fittings quick change maybe? Cheers Ian

The other ER5 restoration .
Ian Frog replied to fastbob's topic in Old Motorbikes, Projects and Restorations
Works on some humans as well lol. Cheers Ian -
Yesterday I took a leaf out of @fastbob book and changed the engine oil and filter along with the transmission oil on the Harley ready for our little trip to Herefordshire next week. Think I will probably use the bike to travel back and forth to work this week and maybe pick up a few more tags. Cheers Ian

Ian Frog replied to KCD's topic in Old Motorbikes, Projects and Restorations
I thought it was because everyone thought you had a fat arse ! After all if you have to live in Ull what else can you look forward to apart from food. Sorry if I misunderstood. Cheers Ian -

MIEOWW! @Stu will love that comment lol. Cheers Ian -
I so hope you are right! We had a lovely little trundle round Oundle and down to J&S in Finedon before stopping for a light lunch near home today. See you now have a slopey number plate, looks good! We are going over to Herefordshire next Sunday so will be going Daventry, Southam, Warwick route if you fancy a coffee stop? Cheers Ian

For what it`s worth if the mounts have rubber bushes around them then I would slacken them off and thoroughy clean them with something like an old toothbrush and paraffin then retighten to the correct torque. If this makes no difference then nothing lost and something eliminated from your choice of problems. Cheers Ian

Does any one recognise this emblem
Ian Frog replied to Tim's topic in Old Motorbikes, Projects and Restorations
Any chance of seeing more of the bike? Cheers Ian -
Looking for a new intercom system...
Ian Frog replied to Troy's topic in Clothing, Luggage, Accessories and Security
Hope you get on with them ! I found them surprisingly good and I keep suggesting them in case it saves others money lol. Also when I bought mine they offered a free set of spare speakers and mic if you left a review. 2 years on and I am using a Sena and my other half is still using the Lexin. Cheers Ian -
Doesn`t your Paul Newman look uncannily like Steve McQueen! Cheers Ian

I was lucky then, vendor had sold house then sale fell through and as she had already accepted a price slightly under asking amount I was able to match it and get agreement to sell. Car was a different story which nearly went tits up as old one was effectively written off by pothole damage and nobody interested in hel[ping so had to find something quickly. Got it sorted in the end but stress I could do without. At least I have a workshop to look forward to now. Cheers Ian

I sympathise ! Changed car last month and new house sale agreed last week. I am saddened to see everything I need to buy or arrange seems to magically rise in price just as I start looking at it. Cheers Ian
