Been out for a bimble with my Shadow again today. I have driven through Tavistock many times but haven’t looked around the Town since I was a kid. Anyway that was our destination for today. Beautiful old and thriving town. Unlike most of our Cornish towns. Can’t claim to know why. Of course Chloe managed to walk into nearly every photo. Lovely but totally unpractical Harley. Next to a very practical but ugly BMW.

It was a really cool place mate, probably double the size you can see in the pic. I was talking to Chloe about taking my Mrs up there and her response was; "That will cost you".

My favorite Bow-Tie....

It's official boys....I'm retiring I will be passing the torch to my long time employee...took the decision this week...after another crazy week....I can and still capable of doing the job ..I'm leaving before the stress kills me...I plan again to ride the 950 into the sunset...hopefully for many years to come...will be turning 59 this year..

All go for me today 85 miles to Tavy and back today, then 40 mile round trip to Damerells bike night tonight. Twas my mate Martyn’s 63 birthday so would have been a bit churlish to say no when he messaged me to go. My Shadow was off horse riding so I got to go out on my own. Some interesting bikes there Two biker groups turned up and stared at each other from either end of the car park, lots of shiny Harleys and Indians but not much that took my interest.

Will a picture do?

Precisely why I got mine.

Bubba's On It....

they are fine over here.. i find you can see more than oem mirrors

Guilty as charged.... @ least 12+ yrs. of rebuilding Bike motors, tuning Ski's & truck front-end repairs....it's like my Mum used to say when I'd beat up on my younger brothers...."You just don't know your own strength" Good news is that I think I found a worthy replacement...

& this guy's point is?

There is no think. There is only what you want. I will be available for consultation in a couple of weeks!

Received the Harley jacket that I sent him...he said the sleeves are two short...the size of the jacket was large American size...just for reference that's like double x large in your UK sizes....I think we might be dealing with someone closely related to the ape family...

Was it a Dog ?....rumors going around some sick Dog wanker is prowling the streets with a van..and wanking dogs to death...

MOT on the dog ran out today, i won't be able to get it done until a week today.

I wanted to put a laughing emoji on that for the bus comment but couldn't because it's quite disturbing, Just seen it on the news and they showed a picture of a man they want to find, when i saw it my response to the wife was why am i not surprised

I got two MOT’s done today. First the Yamaha …. and then the Ducati ..,,,, Both passed with no advisories

Looks nice, good weather too. Might have to have a look there myself one day.

I love her on the last picture: the stare of death!

was it dead ?

I'm loving the indoor market

Maybe the reason why Busa flounced?....

I did something similar, before go pro was a thing I think. Got this keyring cameras off eBay from China, and taped one to the beak of my helmet, then rode around the "track" I used to race around pretending to be in Baja. I got a nice few minutes of the ground moving Still, I see no pictures of your KTM in the least challenging terrain ... I think you might be a poser.

praying wont help .. he needs a psychiatrist

No, they said he has had his hand in an arse.

He has a lot of personal stuff going on, I think he might have succumbed to the grind and got officially old.

'71 Daytona action....

What are you talking about, adventure bike? You rode it to Florida, land of straight roads and blue haired old ladies driving cadillacs. Show it on some challenging terrain, until then you’re riding a scooter!

I don’t know what to think, i messaged before my trip to the UK last year, but got not reply. Then since then he hasn’t been in touch. @yen_powell, mate, I get you don’t want to pay for a tea or meet up, but I’m long gone by now, you can come out of hiding!

Plus, it was a cool match to watch.

Did you find them outside a bike shop asking for a friend

So with the forks back in it was time to see if I could remove anything to shave some weight. First to go was the luggage support rails , I can always fit these back on if I need them later. I dug out the original tank for this bike but it had the locking cap fitted and I never got the keys with the bike. I tried a few tips to remove it but in the end it needed drilling out ........... Then I needed to flush the tank as it had 9 year old fuel in it and now a load of swarf .............. I left the tank to dry out for a couple of days and ordered a new cap , once it arrived I fitted it to the tank. The Suzuki comes with a Mikuni BST carb and a fuel tap that has a vacuum line so I had to block that to get fuel to run from the tank to the carb Johnny Jiggler was employed to run the fuel from the oversize Acerbis tank to the Suzuki item .............. Next I fitted the original side panels in place of the sacrificial panels I'd been using, now it was time for a short run to check everything ................ By time I got the end of the lane the fork seals were leaking which didn't really surprise me, so they came back out and I fitted the Cogent forks by moved them up through the top yoke by 50mm. I will strip the other forks in time now and see what needs repalcing . Today I rode it into work and was well chuffed to find out that it handled fine. I'm chuffed as I really like this bike , it gives good performance for a single and is one of the best carburatting bikes I've ridden .

Marcel or the moose … or both that’s your evening sorted

fuck off are you 59...

I just caught a neighbour burying a body.

Hope it's not chinesium. Dominator forks back together, hope to get a road test if it stops basted raining.

Amazon....the Mrs. has a prime account....saved $28 in shipping

OK busa.

Maybe you’re just stubby

Love that. It was such a silly time for bikes, they really made a scooter styled out of a jetski

I did way back then...I tried to make a video of me giving her shit on a dirt this one time ..but the only I could find that looked like a tri-pod was a rock at ground level ..and the only thing that could be seen was this glorious sound of those twin akro and a big cloud of dust....you cocksuckers laugh at me for and entire year after I posted the video...

If I get time today I will put the new front wheel bearings in.

Oh my lord ...pride month has been horrible for this forum...we've just lost another on...Fred !! FFS !
