I don't know if it's me but that pub looks just like your sleeping pods

Hi Terry, long time no see. Hows things with you?

Nice to meet you Sofia, take no notice of Buck , he's still just as grumpy as ever ?

What's wrong with it Tym, is it worn or just gummed up with all the shit they put in the fuel now. If it just needs a refurb then see if you can find someone who's got an Ultrasonic cleaner. We have one in work and they're ace, strip the carb, bung it in the cleaner overnight. Flush it clean in the morning and then reassemble with new jets and you won't believe the difference ?

Hello Mawsley ?

Wrong side ?

Hello Rigs ?

I think he did, he also got banned from KTM UK forum as he spouted on and on about the holocaust being something made up by the mericans ?

I had a KTM990 Dakar for a year as a stop gap as I was waiting for the KTM790R to come out and the dealer I got it from had agreed to take back the 990 in part exchange. When the 790 was announced they called me up and asked me how much I was expecting to pay, they then told me the price (£11,995) and I told them where to go. I loved the 990 but found it heavy at times and 37mpg was a bit fruity as well so I turned my attention to the T700. All the reports from the magazines and web sites were raving about it but Yamaha were playing silly buggers in regards to how you bought one. There were none in the dealers show rooms, you had to go online and order it, BUT it was on offer for the first batch at £8,399. I took the plunge knowing damm well that I could easily sell it if it turned out that I didn't like it. I waited 3 months for it to arrive , ran it in before the first service and now I can't bloody ride the it because of this bloody virus ?

Interesting Alan, a few owners have mentioned jerky fuelling and it was worrying me slightly before I collected mine. Fortnately mine is smoother than a smooth thing and so is my mates. Judging by owners reactions on other sites I reckon you're pretty unlucky if you end up with one that has bad fuelling.

What we need (especially with what's going on at the moment) is a conspiracy theorist, bring back Zzzzzzzzzzzack ?

No problem at all Pete. I hate motorways on a bike and the back roads and trails in France are a great way to cross the country if you're not in a hurry. It will sit at 65-70mph on dual-carrigeways with no fuss and all the while you're getting 80mpg ? I would quite happily ride it down to the Pyrenees and probably will in the future.

This is my Honda CRF250 Rally. I usually by secondhand but this was the first brand new bike I'd bought for 35 years. I've had it for 18 months now and I'm really pleased with it, it took a bit of getting used to as you have to wring it's neck to go anywhere fast and works in a completely different way to the DR350's I'd been riding for 15 years or so. It's taken me to France twice already , done some of the TET and some other trail riding over there and down to my mates house near Brive-le-Gaillarde. I've modified it a bit to suit my trail riding, the main thing you need to do with these bikes is replace the rear shock as the Honda unit is awful. I put a YSS jobby on mine and it works great.

Tried that, no joy ? Edit: went for a walk down the park, come back and working again now ? ? ?

Hi Specs, yes I've ridden with him a few times but not when he had the CCM. I haven't seen any of those guys for a while now but I still chat to him on other forums. I didn't even realise he'd sold the CCM ?

Hi Pete, I'm trying to upload some photos, doing exactly what I've done before but it won't let me upload them, I just keep getting this message 'Allowed file extensions are: jpg, gif, png '

Au contraire mon ami, I see your Bisley and raise you a Mrs Paws Mrs Paws is a stray who appeared at our back door about 10 years ago. My wife would bollock me for letting her in and wasn't keen at all, nowadays you'd have to prise that cat from her dead body before she'd let go ? This is our son Paolo trying to coax her to eat back in 2010 and hear she is today, she doesn't seem to get any older, unlike me ?

There sure is some great riding where you live Pete

You definitely took the best option Fred by heading back home. Next year I'm just going to stay in the Conwy YHA and not move, it's an ace spot ? That's an ace lane, not very long but with a fantastic view, I did it with Paul Mules about 10 years ago

That pasta dish looks yummy .

Excellent ?

Hello, nice to meet you.
