The sun came out this afternoon so went around the block on the XR another bike i haven't started in a while gave up kicking it and bumped it down the hill, when i got back took out the AT stopped to take a photo next to this house the people that own it are horsey types they have a full size statue of a horse in their garden amongst other things.

The locals are having a hard time of it there first the local quarry is expanding so their up in arms about that then i came along and got the road next to their houses opened after being closed for around 15 years and now someone has purchsed some of the woodland off to the side of the road and is cutting it down Won't be getting down there Last lane before home4 points

So what are you lot doing, the weather forecast isn't good here but I have loads to do anyway, not limited to getting a picture of our new Prime Minister up in the library next to the picture of the King. Oh I just realised, I don't have a library. I'll have beer instead.3 points

That’s a good point. I have a lego model of the GS and it really doesn’t look very much like it. Now the lego kits will easily be very realistic!2 points

They certainly went full twat on that. They used to have those cool toaster tanks back in 50s or 60s, now if you look at that it does look like a toaster too from the side, but really not in a nice way. Regardless of the styling, I’m happy I’m not tempted to buy one at all!2 points

I don't have a topcase/box as I don't like the way they look on naked bikes. I saw a guy (on youtube if I remember correctly) that attached a backpack using the rear vents of the CB500F. I gave it a shot with a large backpack I had laying around. It's big enough I can fit a smaller backpack with my laptop and work stuff in it. The downside of this is that I have to remove it to access the content under the passenger seat. But it can easily removed in 5 minutes or less.2 points

A man is driving down the road and his car breaks down near a monastery. He goes to the monastery, knocks on the door, and says, "My car broke down. Do you think I could stay the night?"The monks graciously accept him, feed him dinner, even fix his car. As the man tries to fall asleep, he hears a strange sound. A sound unlike anything he's ever heard before. The Sirens that nearly seduced Odysseus into crashing his ship comes to his mind. He doesn't sleep that night. He tosses and turns trying to figure out what could possibly be making such a seductive sound.The next morning, he asks the monks what the sound was, but they say, "We can't tell you. You're not a monk." Distraught, the man is forced to leave.Years later, after never being able to forget that sound, the man goes back to the monastery and pleads for the answer again.The monks reply, "We can't tell you. You're not a monk."The man sa,ys, "If the only way I can find out what is making that beautiful sound is to become a monk, then please, make me a monk."The monks reply, "You must travel the earth and tell us how many blades of grass there are and the exact number of grains of sand. When you find these answers, you will have become a monk."The man sets about his task. After years of searching he returns as a gray-haired old man and knocks on the door of the monastery. A monk answers. He is taken before a gathering of all the monks."In my quest to find what makes that beautiful sound, I traveled the earth and have found what you asked for: By design, the world is in a state of perpetual change. Only God knows what you ask. All a man can know is himself, and only then if he is honest and reflective and willing to strip away self deception."The monks reply, "Congratulations . You have become a monk. We shall now show you the way to the mystery of the sacred sound."The monks lead the man to a wooden door, where the head monk says, "The sound is beyond that door."The monks give him the key, and he opens the door. Behind the wooden door is another door made of stone. The man is given the key to the stone door and he opens it, only to find a door made of ruby. And so it went that he needed keys to doors of emerald, pearl and diamond.Finally, they come to a door made of solid gold. The sound has become very clear and definite. The monks say, "This is the last key to the last door."The man is apprehensive to no end. His life's wish is behind that door!With trembling hands, he unlocks the door, turns the knob, and slowly pushes the door open. Falling to his knees, he is utterly amazed to discover the source of that haunting and seductive sound......But, of course, I can't tell you what it is because you're not a monk.2 points

For and 20 year old bike...the thing is still in amazing shape...just shows just how the quality of parts were back then...the newer bikes have become disposable machines now...just to costly to repair and you need to be a rocket ship scientists from Nasa to work on them now...everything can be fixed with simple tools on this thing...2 points

Rain, Motogp sprint, F1 qualifying. Shopping. Refitted the old oxygen sensor and cleared the code. Been to Beccles for some sausages in the week and no code returned but I've also fitted a 42 tooth rear replacing the 45 to the tracer, think it's messed something up as I can only use the cruise control in top gear. Basted electronics.2 points

Gender fluid, gender neutral, non-binary…….they can call themselves a fucking teapot for all I care. I’m way past caring if someone is offended by the fact that I don’t agree with them, don’t share the same sense of humour or plain just don’t like them. Fuck it, I’m glad I’m a pirate2 points
