    Bye everyone.

    Do all the lunatics vanish when your in a Vauxhall Corsa ?
  2. I believe Germany always had a two tier plan to take over Europe ... Plan A clearly failed and now we are seeing the fruits of Plan B How the hell did they manage to become the head of Europe after being smashed in the 40's then later having to absorb the whole of bankrupt East Germany ? Well I think when they took over the British Icon that was the MINI then the writing was on the wall . Shame so many people died in vain to stop this happening but cream always rises to the top !
  3. well funny you should ask but I have read about people wanting to give up "vaping" but apparently its easier than giving up smoking. The plan is to keep off the smokes as long as possible using the E cigarette then reduce the nicotine down to 0 gradually ! Still hard because I miss the arsenic, formaldehyde, lead, hydrogen cyanide, nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide and ammonia quiet a lot still
  4. Thanks I still think I could be tempted to do a 1970's Honda 400 four Hey Polecat....not commenting on the thread but your avatar and just saying I have two of you in my back yard I had three of me for many years but they lived in the house in hammocks and were the smartest and funniest critters I ever met !
  5. Just get the paint code and any decent paint supplier can mix it for you no problem If not you can research the paint codes Kawasaki used for the year of your bike on google Sometimes they like to keep them secret though but writing to Kawasaki may help if that is the case
  6. Thanks I still think I could be tempted to do a 1970's Honda 400 four
  7. I guess Winston would be good ....especially if its a girl
  8. Good job m8 Just take your time ...... I know well how the pressure of doing a restoration blog can make you rush things a bit to keep it flowing Out of interest what caused the tank to bubble ?
  9. Funny enough Tango I did some research on Nicotine and it actually increases reactions considerably Thanks for all the comments BTW
  10. Thanks Some countries banned them which I can only believe is because a) they loose tobacco tax and b) because the large companies which produce Nicotine patches and the like are loosing money, not to mention the big deals done between them and the NHS to promote NRT products on the National Health (which only have something like a 20% rate of success ) I think the man who invented this product should get a Nobel prize for the potential Lives he will no doubt save
  11. Forgot how many times I tried to give up and failed, feels like I was born smoking Had tried every type of NRT - patches, gum, inhaler, lozenges, cold turkey none of them worked Now the bit that sounds like an advert A friend at work told me to have a puff on a long silver thing with a bit like a smokers pipe on the end ? I was amazed how much like smoking it was and found it hard to believe it was actually Vapour, so I went home and researched E-cigarettes and E-Juice and went and ordered myself a Phonton Tank Anyway Soon as it arrived I smoked my last cigarette and have not touched one since (3 weeks !) The longest I lasted previously was 4 days and I was like a bag full of tigers for three of them The crazy thing is I can not even entertain the idea of smoking a cigarette since starting on Vaping The health benefits speak for themselves but the money I am now saving is huge not to mention the fact is I am no longer paying backy tax to the government anymore (which feels Very good !) The reason for this post is none other than if one person reads this and Converts from smoking to Vaping and lives longer then it will be worth while
  12. What do you mean IF I Only use it to get 30 more minutes in bed before work .............
  13. I have in mind something like a Norton CAfe Racer in black and chrome or gold and black Being that Nortons are so expensive I may choose something like a CB400N as a base as it has the right sort of frame then make most of the rest or adapt from other bikes. another possible is a theme bike as you mentioned the Batman logo you could make not a Race REP but a Film Rep like a Batman bike or Mad Max for example Your getting me all fired up now Fozzie ......... I am getting the urge to do one !"!!!"
  14. Sorry I got lost At least sign post me to the one I belong in !
  15. I had an MD80 from Ebay for about £14 and it was really nice quality you had to edit the note pad in the camera to set the date or remove it It had a waterproof cover and the only thing I did not like about it was the hard to use buttons and leds which you could not see in daylight to know if it was on or not. Might get another as the one I had got stuck up the chimney when I was exploring with it on a stick
  16. Decided to cancel christmas as It is crap designed to extract money from you by retail outlets and if you refuse to part with the money they try to shame you into thinking you are a scrooge. I gave £50 to the Air Ambulance to prove them wrong. December 25 is Great without Christmas
  17. Ohhhhhh I forgot about that one ! Perhaps the French loved their revolution so much they want us to have one too ?
  18. perhaps if she acted like a Princess then maby she would get treated like one. I am pretty sure Queen Victoria kept her Baps tucked away out doors
  19. I just wonder if WD is heavy enough for the use a chain goes through I compare this to castrol chain lube which leaves a pretty thick coating over the chain and needs to be done only once every couple of weeks. I expect treating it with WD40 every couple of days has to be better than not doing any maintenance !
  20. Yes ! And I realized they were also not only upside down but the wrong way around ! When they arrived the heads were swivelled 180 so they pointed up too much either way on re-fitting I realized they were leaning up and rotated them 180 and now they look actually quiet good so it is pointy up and then they look like this .....
  21. I did the old both way photograph and it all became a bit more obvious Thanks for all the replies
  22. As said it depends if the public have access and if they do then the traffic act applys as normal If it is private and no public access then no Blocking somebody would be classed as obstruction and you could get Towed or ticketed Sometimes a Car park can become non public access after certain times (after say closing time ) but this would require a barrier (like tesco started to do)
  23. Good idea but no part numbers alas its Blank ....not even a drain hole like on my old ones
  24. Well I tried them both ways and either way they look like stupid ears Anyway I figured same as you Adam that the grove is where an indicator version would be so I think they are less worse pointy side up ! and with the Fazer they kind of fit the shape somehow and at least they dont waggle about like the old ones ! Look at the mirrors on this guys bike: "> Pointy side down Thanks but they have a pointy up and down Think I will have to go buy some square ones again
