  1. Found this little beauty.....Hmmmmmn Nice ! Looks like someone built it with the spares left in the garage from previous escapades ?.......the A team would be proud !!!
  2. I think you've " accidently " posted a link to Whitney Houston........really ? What you should have posted was this... Read the highest rated comment on the page........ha ha ha !
  3. 3 men sat around the waiting room in a maternity hospital.....Englishman, Welshman, and a Pakistani...the midwife comes in and announces " there seems to have been a mix up...we took all three newborns into the same room, seconds after being delivered, and, well.....we forgot to label them and now were not sure whos is whos ! So, after a while they hatch a plan as to how to sort it out. They decide that they should take turns to just go in and get one. The Englishman decides to go in first, then walks back out with what is quite clearly the Pakistani baby, whos father seems horrified......" why ? " he asks. The Englishman says " Listen mate, one of those two in there is Welsh, I'm not takin any ***kin chances ! " ( Nicked from the Edinburgh comedy fest on BBC3 - Simon Evans )
  4. SICK JOKE ! Elton John is releasing candle in the wind again, only this time in aid of the flood victims in Pakistan.............It's being retitled 'sandals in the bin'.

  6. Another forgotten gem, and this....not really an intro, but amazing
  7. Try this...click me please !
  8. Is there a brand that will grip onto wet wood. I struggle to get ANY grip on wet slimy up ended trees. I also run Vee Rubbers...not by choice, just happened to be on the bike when I bought it, with tons of tread left.
  9. Can you put a stiffer spring on the slide in the carb, just so you have to intentionally wind the throttle, rather than accidentally. I would imagine it's quite un nerving to have to be very careful on the throttle, for fear of flipping the beast...could restrict progress !
  10. You'd be better off with a Scorpa 250...Im feeling generous so I will swap you for my 03...I don't even want any cash to sweeten the deal ! Seriously though.......... Sherco 290 + beginner = trouble.
  11. Almost forgot this....class : .And although I dont like this crack addict media whore I like this a lot : .And the mighty : ....or.... .Maybe a bit of blues : .
  12. Looks like it was found at the bottom of a muddy ditch ! I particularly like the rear mudguard/tyre thingy.....I'll bet it wont snap ??????
  13. And maybe a bit of this ; mmmmmm ! or this or this Love these....seen them a few times, superb atmosphere. They did a song called the battle of the beanfield, watch on youtube, it's quite disturbing !
  14. I quite like the serenity of this AWESOME !!!!!
  15. I hope it is normal, cos mine does it too, just never bothered me, don't want to rev it out until its warm anyway !
  16. Is it when you ride it or just when your sat on it or moving it... My scorpa creaks a bit, but it's just the rear brake pads in contact with the disc. Only does it when barely moving the bike around...ie. putting fuel in, or checking things over.
  17. While Im on the subject, what's the best air filter......I have found 3 so far Putoline, Jitsie, and Twin-air. Think they're all pre-oiled, but remember reading about the amount of oil needed, and was wondering if pre-oiled was the right way to go ? Also....is it me or do air filters seem to have gone up quickly from about a tenner to
  18. What a nice thing to do....Good luck !

    Hello, Just a quick one.......which engine gaskets are re-usable ? I plan to do a bit of an engine overhaul over the winter, and have been pricing parts, I have just seen a head gasket ( top of cylinder ) for sale for about
  20. I have just realized that 20 rollies a day doesn't help much......obviously not enough, so I tried 30 but it seems worse, not sure what else to do ?
  21. Totally agree ! I don't think I'd ever be jealous of someone that polishes their chain ?
  22. Check out GasGas on you tube.....there's a few vids on maintenance, one of which shows how to re-align the gear selector shaft. Click here Watch from about 6 mins for the transmission set up. Hope this helps !
