Oh to be young again .................. .

One for you

To be fair, Americans don’t usually have problems killing Indians.

I wouldn't worry about it Saul the bike hasn't done massive miles and to explain how robust the chains are, on one of my learner bikes the cam chain was so slack it wore through the cam chain tunnel on the cylinder casting and was exposed to all the crap off the road. I changed the cam chain and fixed the hole with instant gasket and carried on using the bike

For some reason it will only create people with a beard no matter how many different ways i typed no beard

But I will ride next week, to head up north, then getting the bike serviced next week and ready for a big ride to Italy in September.

Weather is great here at @Sofia’s. Too warm though, and too busy out so won’t even bother with the bike. Bloody summer heat and summer tourists!

true... im going to see if i can beat @Clive 330 yards he done yesterday

FFS 2nd day of my leave. YouTube it is then.

How does this even corner with that back tire?

Popped up to Liskeard for chequered flag bike night. Only stayed long enough for a coffee and a quick. Chat only about 15 bikes when we were there but more were pulling in as we left. Couple of Vicars turned up with big white crucifixes on their backs. Load of women from Plymouth behaving like arseholes all drama and fuss. Few normal guys but don’t know if I will bother again. Of course no show without punch performing Nice Panzer, I like that, especially that it is single seated Cool blade, but had to explain to Shadow it was a Honda not a Repsol. Fantic 700 Vicars ADV750 scoot CBR 650, I could see one of those in Shadow’s future I didn’t mind the red VFR. The hands are Shadows, she was sticking with me and dancing, her ADHD was kicking in because of the noise. When the biker chicks turned up with their pantomime I took Shadow home as their carry on spiked her anxiety and she got really stressed. Not used to adults behaving like that.

My project for tomorrow if I can shake off the lurgy Shadow has given me

30 to 33 here, it’s quite warm when it’s 30 and over in a breezy Atlantic town. Back in my place in the countryside only 80km away it’s 38. At least there will be wine in the balcony enjoying the cool evening breeze. I’ll take a picture.

Its quite good you can do stuff like this

She’s back

No he wasn’t.. he was aiming for the gay scooter to the left of the Indian

Yebbut he was a crap shot, he was aiming for the Indian 50 yds up the road .............

McCoy & Laconi....

Weather is kak here as well

Yeah those years of taking her to gymnastics had some effect.

It had a custom made sidecar attached. Look at the size of the wheels as well. Probably should have taken a photo of the whole but it was just so hideous. Didn't interest me.

Infamous shot of the Hurricane....

Went to a classic car meet at a pub about 15 mins from me , more people there than I expected .. found some nice lanes on the way back ..

It was so bitchin' to watch Mr. Squiggle slide the YZR around back in 2000.... Absolute Master @ steering w/ the back wheel!!

I'll go £550 for the dirty lambo

Capri 2.8 ... wanted a bit of paint round it it but solid , , didn’t look like it was his pride and joy .. hung about to see if owner came back to ask if he wanted £500 for it .

Great mix of vehicles

Got indicators sorted and some new boots

Well I got my CBF back in June and it had a manual cam chain tensioner fitted. I wasn't worried as I heard it running before I bought and it sounded pretty sweet, no rattles that I could hear. Anyway I have been catching up with different things over the last 2000 miles and I though it was time to adjust the Cam chain and set a datum of it being done. And yes I have have given some thought to getting a proper Honda replacement Auto tensioner, as the originals have a reputation for failing and there is a upgraded part available from Honda for £60. In the mean time I thought I could hear a very faint cam chain rattle when the bike was cold. I watched a few Youtube vids on adjusting the manual tensioner and it was all pretty straight forward. So I did just that. Basically the consensus said that you screw the tensioner bolt in finger tight then back it off a quarter turn then tighten the lock nut. Easy peasy. Set about doing the deed and to my surprise the tensioner needed 6 full turns in before i could set it. It looks to me like the previous owner fitted it but never adjusted it. Now at this point I think I have dodged a bullet by not trashing the motor, I have done 2k miles at all speeds even a prolonged 40 mile run at 80-100 mph. Not real sign of cam chain noise and pretty healthy power to be fair. Also good mpg. Not sign of distress but then again the bike was new to me I thought all was good. Anyway post adjustment the bike shows noticeable improvement. Sounds much sweeter than it did, revs up quicker and is noticeably less rough at high revs. Also the bike feels much more responsive in the higher rev range. Obviously it's a matter of small improvements overall but still noticeable. Feels like a newer fresher bike. I just thank my lucky stars I didn't find out the hard way. Testament to the overall quality of these Honda fours. As an aside I reckon I have used up about half the available adjustment in the manual adjuster now what that indicates in terms of the life of the chain I don't know but I am not going to lose any sleep over it while the bike is running so well.

Same shitty weather down here today as well Clive, I changed the rear spring on the Beta last night was hoping to test ride and try setting it up tonight but no chance tomorrow is looking good though

Whereas it's sunny and I'm sweating here in Keynsham, that's UK weather in a nutshell for you

I completely forgot the cameras were there again and had to stop for a few minutes (average speed traps) Ffion Davies caught me on her camera at the hairpin, I though I was riding casual like, I think I'll have to re evaluate "casaual" or I'm gonna get flipped by my sidestand LOL

Are you saying my cock looks like a midgets leg end buck. You been peeping again, sick fuck, you should join the Catholic Church, you'd fit in well there.

Classic irony, creating fictional words whilst correcting someone else's typo, DUH!, proper Homer Simpson moment there Buck, at least mine was fat finger syndrome, yours was thick brain error LOL

owners are burning their Harleys in America.... come on @Buckster..

She missed the "C" and "S" off her tee-shirt!

Why did i think this is what you meant when i first read that

Got mine just after lunch, took the bike out for a jot around, picked up some spark plugs and some high heat epoxy, bought a new Dremel as the old one has packed up, only lasted 18 years. Went down to Costco and filled up with premium for £1.41 a litre, twats. Went to look at a house, or more precisely the neighbourhood, seemed quite nice, people sat in their gardens in the sun, struck up a conversation with a chap who was clearing his hedge, told him I was thinking of buying there, he gave me the rundown and complimented the Harley, may contact the selling agent and arrange a viewing. Back home now about to tuck into a pizza.

I’ve taken my art work to the streets ..,Banksy here I come

That looks like a dirty lotus the other side, I'll go up to 150. They were some crap

yeh there was ... its on every month

few gay types on scooters ... kept away from them

Not overtaken by a single motorbike all morning, up over on the A4067, then A40 through to Llandovery, then over the Blacks, no fucking idea why folks bother with fast bikes, since I've had the scoot I've only got beaten by one biker and it definitely weren't a sperm gargling hardly rider either Better to have a bike you can ride flat out everywhere than and overpowered machine you can never get to grips with, there are some shit hot riders out there but they're probably less than 1% and I already know that Mr "I've got a bad knee" ain't one of them

Yer absolutely. It's definitely not that a bunch of bitter pack animals chased off a decent person. Oh NO He definitely displayed some form of deviance or weakness at some point so it's their fault.... Pete in his own way embraced difference. He may not of absolutely carried it out cleanly but he was clear about equality.
