  1. Man: Today we are going to try something new. Woman: What are you talking about? Man: Sex, we will try something new. Woman: Really? What do you have in mind? Man: We will have sex in your ears. Woman: Don't be stupid, I'll go deaf. Man: Did you went mute last time?
  2. Just clean the dust and stroke her now this looks like a good gadget, for just over £3 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000015689612.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.42077529BU9E9X&algo_pvid=960226c0-bae9-4b49-b1e5-34c3ed9e8aea&algo_expid=960226c0-bae9-4b49-b1e5-34c3ed9e8aea-8&btsid=0be3764515888370675815947efefd&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_,searchweb201603_ PS: If anyone is interested they offer discount for more than 1 piece order
  3. The connection is to be done directly to the battery. You definitely want a fuse on the positive in case there is power surge. The oxford have a female cable that you will connect to the bike permanently so when you want to plug it you don't need to remove anything. Make sure you get a charger that is also a trickle charger so you can leave it plugged during winter
  4. I have an oxford that I got from here https://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/46459/27907,3190,0 I also have a chinese smart charger, it recover dead batteries and it runs on both AGM and Li-On. Forgot to mention. there is a link to sport bike shop here in the forum so they will get some cash for maintenance
  5. Seriously??? AeXiaTwelve? Sounds like a password... But on second thoughts, they have a moron as a president that not logn ago was saying that drinking bleach was good to fight Covid-19.
  6. Changing the rhythm a bit I don't expect you to have a clue about the lyrics but want to make the point of not only songs in English are good
  7. Personally one of the best bands of all times Like Port wine, older the better...
  8. Speak of the devil... Just through the letter box. I wonder what the 48 means... maybe the number of people handling it. .
  9. Cushion sides. Just got them out of the mould. Next steps are to cut the extra bits around, make the edges and burnish. The problem now is that RM is still to deliver the beewax. Would have been quicker if I had walk there.
  10. Imagine this... riding along the Scottish highlands, mountains either side of the road listening to this I dare you for not stomp your foot
  11. "Audace Fortuna Juvat" Or in this case luck favours the idiots... These are the kind of lucky people that won't get sick.
  12. It's called enhanced breather mask :D
  13. You better wait and see how it goes.. Alternative you can come up and do one yourself I'll let you borrow the tools Free tea and coffee available
  14. Thanks [mention]Ian Frog[/mention] Will do. Forgot to mention that you can see the finished fairings This was on another post
  15. Looks like the tool used to remove the wheel bearings. You will need a chisel to go on the opening, that press the sides against the inner ring of the bearing and then you can pull it out. I tried to make one but never worked. Last time I replaced the bearings I just welded a steel rod inside the bearing and whacked it out
  16. As we still can't go anywhere I decided to make a tank cover. I know, I can get it cheaper on Ebay, but what's the fun in it? I would spend less money and time but having nothing better to do... I started a couple weeks ago when I ordered the leather hide. A great shop with one of the best customer service. I don't think anyone is crazy enough to try this so I won't be posting the website These are the steps: 1 - Order the leather, the guy didn't had red so I went for black, got black thread and 2 free needles at same time 2 - Order the 2 tonnes of tools needed to work with leather 3 - Order the beewax, apparently you need it to burnish the leather. 4 - Start making the templates for the cover, I'm using a design similar to Bagster, a central piece from the handlebar down to the bottom. fuel opening with 3 layers of leather, then 1 section on the upper side, a small middle section and a lower section with a cushion for the legs. 5 - After cutting the templates in paper, cut the leather 6 - Water moulding the cushion bits to accommodate the foam, I'm using some foam from an old sofa. 6 - I'll be using some red polyester ribbon I have lying around and will need to buy some locks to fix the cover at the front and at the back. 7 - Considering adding the Honda wings in silver ABS, can get them off Ebay for around £10. Because this is an ongoing project I'll be updating the information as I progress. I'm using yellow insulating tape for the marking of the tank, this is a very flexible tape, easy to peel and you can write on it. Also using paper masking tape for the marking and duct tape for proofing the templates, this is stronger and holds better the paper Tape marking Tape marking Paper template for the different sections Making the paper template Top side paper template Proofing the templates. You know the saying, measure twice and cut once. In this case, measure 10 times, then measure again so you don't end up stitching bits or getting more leather because you f**ked up All templates are marked to make sure I know where they go Proofing the paper templates This is the leather I'm using, a 1.5mm thick flexible and strong. Because I had no idea what to use I followed the advise from the shop owner. Leather hide Cut leather parts, I've taped all sections, even the obvious central part, because they are all symmetric they are marked as left and right for each side. Masking tape on back of leather cuts The foam used for the cushions, I've used a wood saw for the larger cuts and the japanese chisel for the leather. I only saw 1 other blade as sharp as this and is also Japanese Cutting cushion foam finished foam cushion The wet molding, some experts say you should do it by hand and spend an eternity molding it while others say that you can used this kind of molding. Life is too short... Wet moulding Leather tools, the Japanese chisel on the right. The wet moulding was done yesterday (Sun) and it will take 24hrs to set. Once the beewax arrives (Royal mail takes even longer to delivery than usually...) Will start the fine cutting and burnishing. For those wondering what burnishing is. Burnishing is the finishing on the edge of the leather, it will need to cut the sharp edge and then rubbing the beewax and use one of the tools to round it. Youtube is full of videos if you want to have a look. Leather tools
  17. I don't have crapfacebook It is free FREE????? Do you really think so? Do you really believe a company that makes billions selling your information to other companies for advertising will give you anything for free?
