  1. Why thankyou kind sir, i am enjoying it at the moment trouble is the more i enjoy it the closer i get to having to rebuild it, bloody service intervals are crazy if you go by the book but i'm taking that as competition use not trail riding like i'm doing
  2. I'll have you know it doesn't say that i ride legally honest your Honer
  3. I started the eighties at the grand old age of 12 so no i don't remember it
  4. If it works it will be worth it to me. To replace it there are only two bikes i can think of that will do and one is the XR650L and the other is the DR650 but i'd have to spend thousands to buy either of those rather than the hundreds to get this thing going
  5. Trouble is Bob it wasn't just the cam it was the rocker arms and the rocker arm shafts as well i saved myself about £40 buying from Dave silvers but still a lot of cash. The parts alone are almost what i paid for the bike 10 years ago
  6. I'm thinking about any other damage caused by the lack of oil that i don't know about yet. As for the the oil feed pipe i'm in the process of putting a temporary oil pressure gauge on there and once i know what pressure it runs fitting a permanent pressure switch with warning light Something like this on the dash will do i think
  7. I think i'll try some sand this month instead of the mud
  8. My cheap camshaft never arrived so I've had my money back. Bit the bullet and ordered from Honda yesterday, this thing better fucking work after this or i'm going full Basil Faulty on it
  9. Did you change out of second gear the one i took out was doing about 75mpg
  10. I got to admit i really enjoyed that bike in DCT form but agree about the rear suspension i thought my spine was going to bust out the top of my head going from Abergwesyn to Llyn Brianne
  11. My mind is fried when it comes to remembering things like this but i did remember a few today Hawkwind in the Bristol bike show. It was blowing a gale and i was too pissed to go to the stage they did sound good from the beer tent though Debbie Harry at kent custom show again too pissed Meatloaf at a sit down event somewhere which was weird but i was sober and he put on a great show I'm sure there is more but i'll have to ask the wife
  12. I haven't been there myself yet Bob but have heard about it, doesn't look like the type of place they would enjoy someone covered in mud dripping everywhere though
  13. Check out the wife's T shirt taken a few weeks ago LOL we've lost count of how many times we've seen Engine and dumpy's. I'm not into going out of my way to watch bands but if their on where i am i will watch them the wife is mad into it and so is my boy now
  14. I had to take the welsh out of that it was making sound better than he is
  15. I've seen him racing a few times and he really was that fast i just couldn't get my head around how he done it scared me just watching
  16. I might be out tomorrow but not sure about any reports though
  17. I wonder If that's the famous David Knight enduro rider or some random David knight
  18. If money and reliability wasn't an issue i think i'd like one of these still remember the noise it made as it rode away from us in the alps @boboneleg aprilia 550 rxv
  19. I've said this before i was talking to a guy on a new GS years ago and he asked how many bikes i had and at the time i had 5 he said i wish i had enough cash for 5 bikes i told him if he sold his GS he would as all 5 of my bikes cost less to buy, tax, MOT and insure than his GS cost to buy, you just got to be willing not to have the latest and greatest
  20. I did just that. i bought a 1993 Africa twin in 1993 and then bought another about 10 years ago which i still own and i done the same with my CB1000 owned one in 1995 then bought another in 2011 but I've just sold that as for the other bikes i have i've got to say yes i'd have them all again each one i enjoy riding
  21. I think i will join you with that one pending a test ride first
  22. So what you are saying is you would like to taste Pedro's nuts
