  1. I think he meant to say: get one of these to wake up them neighbours real- noise or
  2. That's easy, just ferment them into methanol or something.

  4. Shouldn't be too much of an issue. I've fitted universal cables, although they're not stainless braided. The only difficulty may be cutting the housing (that's the outer). The basic procedure is to remove the inner and fit the housing to the bike. Once you're 100% happy with the routing, cut it to length. You can guy cable cutters, but for a one-off I'd use a hacksaw or dremel if you have one. It's best to make sure the end is square, so a file is useful too. What is the carb end like? nipple or clamp <fnarr>. If it's a clamp then you connect the inner to the twistgrip and feed it through. At the other end, clamp it and cut off the excess. If it's a nipple they you'll need to find one the correct shape and size and solder it to the inner. It's best to feed the inner through as above, then figure out where the nipple needs to be and cut the inner. Then remove the cable and solder the nipple to it. You don't necessarily have to remove it from the twistgrip for this.

  6. Burnley's not that far away either.
  7. Yep, I had one and those bars are terrible. Like holding a wheelbarrow. I swapped mine for Triumph Bonneville export bars, much better but that wouldn't give the look you want. Good luck with it!

  9. Rather short notice, but I just saw a flyer on a lamp post about this. http://www.visitlancashire.com/site/whats-...le-show-p546250 It's tomorrow, which is Father's day. Now since I am a father, I should get to do what I want. But I also have a father so we're taking him out to lunch so I can't go.
  10. Sorry, that's all I have. The traffic is crazy, but easy to carve through if you're aggressive. Just use the horn plenty!
