Joeman Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Spotted this the other day.. looks like he might need new fork seals. Quote
Hoggs Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Nah no point now all the oils come out anyway Quote
Gerontious Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 looks like the owner and pillion have a severe flatulence problem. Quote
Fozzie Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Is that, or was in that bikes case a Honda CBF250?I remember them, and wanted one when I was 18 as a commuter but you so much as cough too hard and the valve clearances would go out of spec. And I mean waaaaaay out. Quote
fastbob Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Was this bike in daily use or was it in a scrapyard ? Quote
Grumpy Old Git Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 No - That's normal.The seat cover could do with a clean though! Quote
Joeman Posted August 15, 2018 Author Posted August 15, 2018 Was this bike in daily use or was it in a scrapyard ? Presumably a daily ride. Wasn't there the next day so if certainly runs.. Seriously thinking of building a website called ShitBikesOfSantorini.com Quote
Guest Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 The fork seals are fine......it's just the rest of the bike that needs replacing....... Quote
Bianco2564 Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Do you think the owner would have been full of pride seeing someone photo their bike?Little do they realise its being mocked on here.Maybe that's his hack and the decent bike is at home?Or that is the decent bike and he has a bigger nail in the garage Quote
Hoggs Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 Do you think the owner would have been full of pride seeing someone photo their bike?Little do they realise its being mocked on here. ...I'm going to go out on a limb and say the owner of that bike would give exactly zero f**ks Quote
onesea Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 As a city ride it maybe less likely to be stolen, I would be pleased about that. Quote
Joeman Posted August 18, 2018 Author Posted August 18, 2018 What about this one then.. mostly sellotape now!! Quote
Mickly Posted August 18, 2018 Posted August 18, 2018 What about this one then.. mostly sellotape now!!20180817_141815.jpg No, that’s paint protection film to stop stone chips and scratches, it’s obvious when you look at how well it’s been cared for, they’ll get it back on the resale value, at least an extra magic bean or two.

Joeman Posted August 19, 2018 Author Posted August 19, 2018 Local scooter hire company had new bikes delivered yesterday. I saw them arrive and watched them open the crates as I was curious to see what bikes they were. Today the crates are still exactly where they left them!!.. imagine living in a place where it's ok to leave brand new bikes sat out overnight without fear of them being nicked!! Quote
mikestrivens Posted August 19, 2018 Posted August 19, 2018 Isn’t Santorini a small island. Where the feck would even the stupidest thief take them? Quote
Joeman Posted August 19, 2018 Author Posted August 19, 2018 Its not very big but judging by the condition of many bikes you could easily just nick one and stick any old number plate on and nobody would know.. So many beat up old cars and bikes they cant be too bothered by MOTs tax insurance etc.. Quote
