    Okay, no idea if this is allowed or not so please delete the post if it is inappropriate We are selling our house in France. For various reasons, we have not been able to get over there for about four years (!) so have just stuck it on Ebay. We bought it as an easily accessible base for touring in Europe but, by the time we had finished doing it up, life did that thing that it does and all our plans changed. So, the reason for sticking it in here specifically (if allowed) is that we bought it 'cos it has all the important ingredients: a garage large enough for at least six bikes and a bar next door The Ebay ref is : 181340554120

    How are we supposed to help people when they can barely write. It is getting so common now, no capitals, nothing. Maybe a ? here and there. I may well be turning into? ok maybe already. A grumpy ol bastard at times but how hard is writing. As for the idiots that write 'in text'. If they want help they should write proper. Better now.

    We'll I have seen on here people post up what they would do to some of the dickhead car drivers out there! We'll a lad off the triumph forum was in court today having done that booted car mirror and doors he was charged with 3 counts of criminal damage the CPS said they are clamping down on riders who take the law in to there own hands. He was fined £550 ,£85 costs and £2100 for repairs his barrister said the only reason he got no points or a ban was because the CPS cocked up and only charged him with criminal damage and not a motoring offence. SHIT it will make me think twice next time a cage driver cuts me up.

    This was a TV show where contestants are given like, 150 questions to answer while taking a lie detector test. The chick lost her husband, dignity, self respect, respect and everything else... just for CASH... typical, chicks.... she needs a slap or two. I think this was the controversial episode that got it taken off the air later on.. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=974_1352094286#se6S4RaUlPystrGt.99

    Well now. After years of riding I finally decided to go out for a spin this evening after work with a pillion. Common sense, sociologists and fancy equations would have told me one of the 2 boys would have been holding on for dear life but nope, that privilege went to my youngest daughter (11yrs). And here's the thing .... We only travelled a total of about 5 miles to some coast line, stopped, looked around for a bit before heading back as she's going out tonight with her mum. Stopped briefly to reward her with some chocolate for not falling off. And yet when we got off the bike in the driveway and I helped take off her helmet ... Well, we may as well have just stepped of…

    So before I got into motorcycling which has now pretty much taken over ALL of my free time, I used to build die-cast replicas of Police vehicles for officers and collectors. I've made probably 25-30 of them in total but it was turning into a job more than a hobby and that was one of the reasons I decided to stop making them for a while. After that, I was looking for other fun things to do with my time... Top Gun came on one day and Tom Cruise was booting around on his 900 Ninja....and it just made something click in my brain, that said, why the f haven't you done that yet? (ride) You're not getting younger.....so, I went and bought a bike! Anyway! Here are som…

    Well peeps, took the trusty Pajero in for its MOT today... after about 15 minutes the tester came in and explained the problems, went out to the ramp to have a look and the surface corrosion appeared to be more sever than i thought. inner sills were completely shot (mud flicks up onto the sidesteps and rots it out), arches were gone and covered with just the plastic trim, chassis legs were rusted through over the rear axle/body mounts, what i thought was a minor leak of oil from the diff input seal turned out to be a ruptured breather from the diesel tank, even put 2 new tyres and a reversing light bulb in it half an hour before the test, ended up taking it ba…
