  1. Sent that vid to my Pa, he said- Yust I’ve seen it. If you ask me it’ll be a big disappointment if you’re used to modern mobikes. I didn’t rate it at the time. It’s just a big thumper under powered lump. BSA tried to cash in by making a cheap version of the Manx Norton. Which would piss all over it once you mastered the close ratio gearbox (not easy peasy) I say what’s that then? He replied- For expert experienced yobbos only. By the time you’ve got the clutch in it’s doing 30mph. And a bonneville is lapping you! Great on a circuit shite on the street. So what is this close ratio gearbox he speaks of?
  2. Constipation is a well known side effect of morphine. It thought now that stoppering yourself up and keeping whatever your body is trying hard to eject as quickly as possible isnt the best idea and you should just drink electrolytes (not the sugary variety) an let nature finish what its trying to do.
  3. No Id buggered off for about a year n a half after Speedy left. Just wasnt enjoying it, some nice people on there and some who were always angry, got a bit tiresome.
  4. Brilliant. So cool. Never really thought about how leftfield the Star Trek theme was before.
  5. Yep My mum used to threaten us with milk of magnesia, that stuff nearly always induced a miraculous recovery, miraculous because you’d swear you were better just from seeing the bottle.
  6. Yer Kaolin and Morphine. They stopped selling it over the counter cos it would separate and desperate junkies would supposedly buy it for the sliver of morphine it contained and as no-one gets a script for that it killed it off. Heyho.
  7. Oi I was on there too briefly and Im not a boring fecker.. annoying yes boring no
  8. Had my booster today which is good because Spain want a minimum of two weeks from your second vaccination and I can imagine the hassle at the airport when your booster isnt two weeks gone! Had the flu jab at the same time in the opposite arm. The flu arm is fine the Covid arm feels like lead. Got asked how old I was cos she didn’t think I was old enough for the group I was booked in with, how nice and amazing what sunglasses a mask and can do for your ego
  9. Doubt it I would have remembered you if you were about at the time!
  10. Hehehe. I have just bought one of these to secure mine to the bike. Saw someone thread one through their jacket sleeve and lid n wander off. https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07T3F5NL3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  11. Indian manufacturers are Im told fond of steel. Dunno why maybe that it can be bent back? Or perhaps its cheap?
  12. I missed that! Crikey are you ok Pete, did anyone try to steal your lid?
  13. Umm 60 summink. Maybe 63, cant remember!
  14. Aw jeezus. Mr Slowlys busy getting pie eyed at the VPs ‘lunch’ and my youngest is off out. Great peace and quiet I think, nope he wants a lift to Bristol
  15. I doubt that I expect youll only be hearing a guilty silence
  16. I tried. I got as far as the word forum being he started swearing I said I dont need to mention six30s on there then? I couldnt pick out many of the words cos there were too many “cunts” interspersed in the sentence, if it was a sentence
  17. Speedy23 wasn’t around for long, he’s intelligent and knowledgeable so it wasnt really a good fit from the off
  18. Yeah but in the flesh Mash look like theyre made from tinfoil
  19. Shell V power is E5 But its not always available in all forecourts. it can be dodgy assuming you can get some.
  20. Now you come to mention it. I don’t think Speedy was suitably reverential in Stu’s direction. He reckons he’d had the hump with him and wanted him gone since a disagreement about some sort of measurement (can’t remember details) and he’d said he’d rather take the word of the definitive standards manual over the incorrect info from a bus driver…
  21. Hehehe. No you weren’t about at the time. I remember protesting about why Speedy didn’t get reinstated when Six had but I just got a load of flannel about Speedy not being welcoming to newcomers. They’d love Buckster ay
  22. They often offer a cup of tea which I think is rather nice of them. In the summer they put picnic benches outside and there’s usually bikers sitting outside enjoying a free drink. And more importantly they price match so you don’t get ripped off. They’ll also get in anything you want which I like cos you can compare and handle the goods before buying
