blackhat250 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Well if you aint sick of it yet, Day1, its bollocks,, Heres an example, they had to lock off the wind tubines last year,[ too windy] AND they still get paid downtime [ £280million],, So rather than give us cheaper electicity [ so we wont use oil&coal heating ] do they fk, it all about profit,, And they were givvin massive grants to install the bloody thing too, Next news we here is, there about to plant MORE fkn wind turbine in the north sea, which will power enuff for 2/3 of the scottish homes, .. fkn ell were locking em off ,and still planting the fkn things,, [ subsidised no doubt, Scam.----..And weve 2 or 3 massive Hydro plants ,that get turned off at night, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neversaydie Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Hmmm. Im a little sceptical too. Trying to tax us to stop using fossil fuels just as its all starting to run out anyway, cutting down the very forests that we need to absorb CO2 to plant palm oil trees to make ethanol, still building houses without solar panels, no plans to capture the water that falls from the sky to ensure consistent supplies in the anticipated hotter climate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Cynic Posted November 3, 2021 Moderator Share Posted November 3, 2021 yep and the fact that things like stopping the tree felling in rain forests, no enforcement mechanism, no money to suport it and no actual penalties for doing nothing. The countries that are doing it will laugh at something so toothless. It comes down to profit, the big cats will be lining their nests right up untill the house burns down around them. On a personal note when will they stop saying we are saving the planet, the planet and nature will plod on happily after we have killed each other with our excess. We are saving US, and countries like russia and china are not helping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neversaydie Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Those nations with oil under their land will continue to extract it. Can you ever imagine the middle eastern nations not doing so? It is there only source of finance, without which, the Sheiks wont be able to keep the lid on the various historical hatreds within their borders. Same for those with coal reserves. Its all smoke and mirrors. We'll continue to burn fossil fuels, but be taxed into poverty to due so, with the revenue raised going into carbon sink/cleanup/tree planting etc etc, just to stay where we are now. Lets melt the southern ice cap, theres an island underneath bigger than Australia, almost unlimited supplies of coal and oil just waiting to be dug out and we own a slice of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome is the simple answer, need to update the suspension (maxton if i can afford it) as the carbon wheels are really pushing the stock shocks and fork damping and they cannot really deal with it Then it will be as good as it will ever be. Well as good as i can ever use. Wish i bought it 20 years ago, you can ride fast (enough), the launch from the line is NEVER boring, nor is the zero to hero stomp with the stupid hit at 6k, its like a quarter ton 150hp 2 stroke. But you can also nob along at 50mph pootling taking all the time in the world getting nowhere. Fuel consumption sucks although its nice getting 30 ish to the gallon from something 1200cc rather than 250cc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
