The Bar

Hi there. My names Kev and I'm from Wiltshire and ride a 2007 MT-01 with Akropovic's

A burglar broke into a house one Christmas night looking for presents when the family was not home. He shined his flashlight around, looking, when a voice in the dark said, 'Santa knows you're here.' He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight off, and froze. When he heard nothing more , after a bit, he shook his head and continued. Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard 'Santa is watching you.' Freaked out, he shined his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot. 'Did you say that?' he hissed at the par…

The other day I went up to our local Christian book store and saw a 'Honk if you love Jesus' bumper sticker.. I was feeling particularly sassy that day because I had just come from a thrilling choir performance, followed by a thunderous prayer meeting.. So, I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper. Boy, am I glad I did; what an uplifting experience that followed. I was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection, just lost in thought about the Lord and how good he is, and I didn't notice that the light had changed. It is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't honked, I'd never have noticed. I found that lots of people love Jes…

What is it like getting parts for an old TX750 please? Next to impossible I guess? Thanks.

hey, This is my first winter with a bike, and I wasn't sure if they needed any special care during the colder months. Basically, I'm gonna be away for about a month, so I was just wandering if there is anything I should do to prevent the bike from becoming damaged due to the cold, especially since it won't be used for a while. I don't have anywhere to store it inside so my options might be limited. cheers!

May you all stew in your favorite falling down juice, and enjoy a happy and healthy new year. Jason.

found this on another site. This is a story about the bond formed between a little girl and a group of building workers. It's allegedly true and might help to confirm your belief in the goodness of people and that there is hope for the human race. A young family moved into a house next door to an empty plot. One day, a gang of building workers turned up to start building on the plot. The young family's 5-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door and started talking with the workers. She hung around and eventually the builders, all with hearts of gold, more or less adopted the little girl as a sort of project mascot…

Johnstown, PA (GlossyNews) – Local and state police scoured the hills outside rural Johnstown, Pennsylvania, after reports of three animal rights activists going missing after attempting to protest the wearing of leather at a large motorcycle gang rally this weekend. Two others, previously reported missing, were discovered by fast food workers “duct taped inside several fast food restaurant dumpsters,” according to police officials. “Something just went wrong,” said a still visibly shaken organizer of the protest. “Something just went horribly, horribly, wrong.” The organizer said a group of concerned animal rights activist groups, “growing tired of throwing fak…

I am just fitting the electrics on my XS650 chopper and am wondering what size battery I can get away with. There is no electric start, just lights and electronic ignition to run. I want a small battery to fit under the seat. I have seen some electric scooter batteries at 4Ah which are very compact sealed lead acid. What has anyone else used?

Hi, Just wondering if it is possible to have the engine block refurbished? The previous owner obviously didnt wash down after a ride on the salty roads and now the surface is pitted and looks quite rough. I could try doing it myself I suppose by taking the downpipes / radiator off but just wondered if there are people out there who could do this? Bike is an 04 FZ6 by the way Also is there any quick way of removing the downpipes? the stud nuts are very badly corroded and I expect they will snap when I try to loosen them. many thanks

Hi there im giving my XJ600 Pre Divvy a complete sort out, i was wondering if anyone knows where i can get a new loom or a unmolested one, i've got loads of electrical geremlins im trying to sort.

Any help or just ideas are gratefully appretiated, thanks alot seph.

OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES A handful of 7 year old children were asked 'What they thought of beer'. Some interesting responses, but the last one is especially touching. 'I think beer must be good. My dad says the more beer he drinks the prettier my mum gets.' --Tim, 7 years old 'Beer makes my dad sleepy and we get to watch what we want on television when he is asleep, so beer is nice. ' --Mellanie, 7 years old 'My Mum and Dad both like beer. My Mum gets funny when she drinks it and takes her top off at parties, but Dad doesn't think this is very funny.' --Grady, 7 years old ''My Mum and Dad talk funny when they drink beer and the more they drink the more th…

Hiya, Apologies to everyone, I've just been informed by Paul that the PM system is down. I'm currently looking into it now and should have it back up within the next few hours.

hese are actual comments (?) made on students' report cards by teachers in the New York City public school system. All teachers were reprimanded (but, boy, are these funny!) Some might even apply to someone you know... yah, sure: me... will you get a reprimand! 1. Since my last report, your child has reached rock bottom and has started to dig. 2. I would not allow this student to breed. 3. Your child has delusions of adequacy. 4. Your son is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot. 5. Your son sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them. 6. The student has a 'full six-pack' but lacks the plastic thing…

I'm thinking of buying an 09 650 vstar silverado. My wife and I like to ride together but our combined weight is around 270 lbs. Do you think that the 650 will be able to haul us at 65-70 mph. We don't do much highway riding usually roads at 40 mph speed limits. Do you think that this bike would be right for me?

Evenin' peeps, found THIS whilst doing my search for Jawa spares on ebay, made me think about my poor Agro which has been abandoned in my shed for almost a year now... front end spread across the shed in various boxes and bags... brought a tear to my eye... must get it back together for the summer :/, and do my practical test aswell... oh, BTW, if i get a full bike licence can i take the L plate off my DT? its staying for another year now that ive T&Td it so may aswell use it
