    Priceless -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fred had had a headache for many years . He finally made a doctor's appointment. Results as follows. The doctor said, "Fred, the good news is I can cure your headaches.The bad news is that it will require castration. You have a very rare condition which causes your testicles to press on your spine and the pressure creates one heck of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles." Fred was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to live for. He had no choice but to go under the knife. When he left the hospital, he was without a hea…

    I've had 3 friends killed by people driving while on mobile phones. I've almost been run over myself, while walking on the pavement by someone doing this. Hands-free kits cost a few quid. Most phones come with one included in the box. It only takes a moment to pull over before answering a call. There is NO excuse. So we're bimbling back from Portsmouth and this guy comes blasting along in the next lane... Mrs looks over and see's he's on his mobile phone. As is the custom, I give the guy the usual hand gesture and indicate he should pull over. He decides he's going to blast in front, stop at the lights and get out for a barney. I can't be arsed wit…

  5. If like me you have ever owned or you are interested in mini's you will find this interesting. Quote: It seemed like a good idea at the time. Take one rotten 1980 Mini 1000 and one Toyota Celica GT-Four and use all their guile, cunning and skill to graft them together to create a Frankenstein’s monster of a car. http://www.badobsessionmotorsport.co.uk/test/index.php/projects/binky

    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.

    Some ‘dirtbag’ in Polk County Florida who got pulled over in a routine traffic stop ended up 'executing' the deputy who stopped him. The deputy was shot eight times, including once behind his right ear at close range. Another deputy was wounded and a police dog killed. A statewide manhunt ensued. The low-life was found hiding in a wooded area with his gun. SWAT team officers fired and hit the guy 68 times. Now here's the kicker: Naturally, the media asked why they shot him 68 times. Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, told the Orlando Sentinel : 'That's all the bullets we had !!' (Talk about an all-time classic answer !!!)

    An engineering student was at campus parking an R1 when he was approached by a friend, also an engineering student. The friend said, "Hey, where'd you get the great looking bike?" The first engineer replied, "Well, I was walking across the campus car park the other day. This beautiful woman rode up to me on her R1, ripped off all her clothes, laid down on the ground and said 'Take anything you want!!!'" The second engineer replied, "Good choice. Her clothes probably wouldn't have fit anyway!"

    My son has an R6 and it needs to be restricted, he thought when he bought it that it was but needs to get it done for his insurance. Have been looking around for him and for a few washers the prices seem expensive. Can anyone point me in the right direction - have looked at ebay but nothing there. I have tried to find a fitting guide as i understand that they can be self fitted and then a shop will dyno test or if anyone knows a service offered in the NW of England please email [email protected] thanks

    Does anyone know where to buy a decent radar and laser detector for my R6? There are already enough speed cameras, but you learn where these are, now there are more portable speed camera vans and the hand held speed guns around my town. I still have a clean licence and I'm a careful rider but if I'm being monitored everywhere I go its only a matter of time until they start lining their pockets with my hard earned cash. If only there was a way to combat the Average speed cameras too.

    CORK radio station was running a competition - words that weren't in the dictionary yet could still be used in sentence that would make logical sense. The prize was a trip to Bali. DJ: "96FM here, what's your name?" Caller: "Hi, me name's Dave." DJ: "Dave, what's your word?" Caller: "Goan... spelt, G-O-A-N, pronounced 'go-an'." DJ: "... You are correct, Dave, 'goan' is not in the dictionary. Now, for a trip to Bali: What sentence can you use that word in that would make sense?" Caller: "Goan f**k yourself!" The DJ cut the caller short and took other calls, all unsuccessful until: DJ: "96FM, what's your name?" Caller: "Hi, me name's Jeff." DJ:…

    Hey peeps. I'm making up some sketches for artwork on the tank on the FUCR, the first idea was a rams head in a pentagram, but some people think it's a bit too dark. The second idea, was two snakes wrapped around a V-twin crank and pistons, will probably end up airbrushing these on and seeing how they look. I'm thinking the bike will be in a deep gloss black with silver detailing, or maybe dark green gloss with nato lettering. Ever since some c*nt bastardised it in the car park I'm struggling to find out where to go with it next, I think a Rickman style front fairing would be a bit ott. Anyone got any suggestions?
