Several days stuck in a metal barge? Naahhh....

I agree with your argument about the bike. Too early to get one. You hardly get 100 miles out of zero ones never mind touring on one. I'm on my 3rd ev and won't go back to fuel. Infrastructure is not that much behind. Even more now that the free electricity is pretty much gone you will find plenty of stations with few cars charging. My one does easily 180 miles on a charge during winter which is more than enough for my needs. This always depends on individual circumstances as obvious. I perfectly understand that for some is still not an option. Although, news of much better batteries are announced almost every day I won't be surprised if solid state ones will start to appear during this year maybe 2025. That will bring ev bikes on the game with 200 miles tange and 10 min charging time. Believe you me, they are a lot of fun to ride.

So basically, your radio signal goes out in smoke...

Damn. That thing reaches 20 meters

Nor really sure which way this should go. Either toasters that are too small for the loaf or the idiots in the supermarket who should know the size of the toaster and make the phoking bread in a way that fits inside

Unless you buy an EV then there is no oil to check

Think it's time to start thinking about getting one myself. Just saw a sale on airfryers from 105 to 85 quid. Soon will be buy one get one free

How about stop smoking all together?

Self-checkout!!!!!!!!!! Monday, I went shopping at nearest Sainsbury. When I went to pay all counters were empty and only available the self-checkouts So, I told the lady near the self-checkouts to get my basket and put the items back because "I'm not doing your job!" As principle I don't like people to do my job. So, I absolutely refuse to do others' work. Plus, I'm not covered by their insurance if something goes wrong. Pay people decent salaries and stop exploiting the ones who pay the money to be served. There is a reason why I don't do buffet restaurants. If I'm paying to eat out, I want the entire service.

The constant notifications on my phone. Why do I have to know that I have spent some money 20 seconds after I completed the transaction? Not to mention all the other notifications I get during the day with shaite emails.

Regarding gloves... Why manufacturers make expensive gloves but don't give a oot about the seems? You spend a fortune in a decent pair of gloves and the damn seems keep rubbing and pressing against your fingers. Not ideal when you plan to do 8 hours riding

I've used marine waterproof product used on boats. Brilliant and last for ages. A product called starbrite

This guy, went around the world (80,000 km) on a minimoto. Around the world on a bike - 80,000km in 1,000 days

I never understood why people go for walks.... If humans were meant to walk we would have wheels. Feet are for standing. Need proof? Look at a table. they have feet for standing still and wheels if they are meant to go around. Plus, never heard of anyone getting injured by sitting on a sofa....

As if you weren't already....

I strongly recommend that you watch a guy on YT with a channel called Oficina Mesquita. oficina MESQUITA - YouTube You won't understand what he says because he's Brazilian and only talks Portuguese. However, you will learn a lot with his channel. I would be careful with Hammerite as rust will go through it very easily. About prep work. (As per Mesquite) Do as much perfection as you can during prep and you will see the results when you finish. 95% of the result lies in preparing the surfaces. Good quality paint will last much longer even more on a motorbike. I'm considering spraying my Pan and will be ordering the products from these guys Motorcycle & scooter paint - touch up or respray for Honda Yamaha Ducati Kawasaki Triumph BMW Harley Suzuki Aprilia KTM Classic Vintage | RS Bike Paint Degreaser, you should get proper paint degreaser or as alternative carbs or brakes cleaner. Acetone is a great solution but doesn't remove everything. Spraying or painting with quality is an expensive "sport" but About the forks, You want to make sure you remove all the clear coat and correct any scratches/imperfections on the forks. At the end they are exposed to lots of aggression, high speed impact by dust, sand and even small stones (if you're lucky no large ones). Finally, a top quality filler goes a long way. Some pics of the work will be appreciate by everybody here

Then use a second hose to fill it up on the go....

That can have 2 purposes.....

Stay away from those scammers of temu You can find those sponges in home bargain

Just a wee question. What is the problem of stopping for 1 min? does your timing is so perfect that 1 min delay creates a huge problem in your life? I mean, stop somewhere safe, get whatever you want to use to clean the visor. Clean the visor and put it back where you get it from. Set off again when safe. If this takes more than 2 min I will eat my hat... Not that I have one.

Maybe I misunderstood the title. When I mean using the microfiber cloth I mean stop clean it, have a coffee and get back on the road. while riding the only "cleaning" I do is rain by turning the head both sides and let the wind do the work.

I found that microfiber cloth works really well.
