wild foamy

moral of the story is JAWA = AWESOME i.e.... FOAMY = AWESOME LOL, i pwned u n00bs, l33t h4x0r!

ooh arr, i'd like to have a poke at 'er haystack...

not quite, but im pretty sure it touched cloth

f*ck me peeps, i hear all these horror stories about people having accidents on bikes most days, but i never fully understood the fear of it until last night.80 on the way back from halton, about 8pm as i came into newbury up a single road, lit by streetlights at 30mph (just before a speed camera), there was an oncoming car stationary, indicating to turn right across my lane into a driveway, now, being a cocky young shite i assumed he/she had seen me and carried on, as i got nearer the stupid tw*t started to turn, i shat myself, put the anchors on, locked the back wheel and braced for impact, thankfully i missed the back of the car by about 3 inches but f*ck me if it didnt shake me up big time... didnt feel right being on the DT today... ... just thought id share my near-death experiance... could do with a hug, Goff ... *hint hint*

fit a different expansion chamber and exhaust, change the front sprocket to a larger one or the rear sprocket to a smaller one, replace the reeds with performance ones. no idea if the 80LC barrel will fit

Ah, its nice to hear the ol' warhorses have found their place in society and not been completely forgotten... not long now and (hopefully) my Jawa will be roadworthy, and i will finally win the heart of the fair lady Goff

ah fair doos, i just assumed it was a seca because of the front end styling... looked a bit seca-ish... but you have to admit, "Vegas" sounds almost as awesome as "Maverick" , and when the chicks see my roll up on my Jawa they will be all over me, i would have to fight them off with my awesome biceps of awesomeness, because i would be sooooo awesome...

thankfuly our CBRN suits are fairly easy to get in and out of, takes about 6 or 7 minutes to get fully dressed including helmet and respirator, but even outside on a chilly autumn morning it gets feckin' hot in there!, the intake before us messed up on something bad and ended up having to run around the training hangar fully dressed in CBRN suits for 40 minutes! last week was all first aid training, administering CPR, putting a casualty into the recovery position e.t.c next week is a bit easier and a lot more interesting... weapons! , i had the first 3 lessons yesterday, holding the rifle, disassembling it, cleaning it, safety checks e.t.c and next friday is a day at the range . another 3 weeks and i'll be stood on the parade square all dressed and pressed in my No.1 uniform

Ouch, Astropine poisoning?, i had to run through all the drills today as part of a practical test, things like donning the respirator in under 9 seconds i did outside of the gas chamber (or "respirator test facility" as it is now called), but other things such as administering a combipen, changing the respirator canister, drinking using the respirator straw and decontaminating (which involved taking off the respirator, rubbing my face, neck, ears and hair with DKP2 powder and replacing the respirator) were all done inside the RTF in the presence of CS gas But everyone in my flight passed the tests, we had a good laugh and all in all a good day, finished at 3pm and was home in newbury by half 5, 75 miles on the DT lasting 2 hours and it didnt skip a beat!

pretty much half way through now, just finished day 28 and im currently doing my CBRN training with the regiment. spending the majority of the day dressed in a boiling hot chemical protection suit doing various drills such as taking off my helmet, taking my respirator out of its bag and putting it on within 9 seconds all good fun when you're in a room full of CS gas , (which, by the way, will clear a blocked nose like you'd never believe!) next week is first aid training, the week after is weapons training, then its basically just a week of admin until i grad on the 21st (hopefully!) was allowed home last weekend and this weekend, i also brought the DT back with me last weekend so if im allowed local leave in the evenings i can find a quite road and go for a play

i dont understand... what does she mean?...

Like an intercooler type system? (only without the turbo, i suppose), it would be possible but i dont know what difference it would make, would mean adding extra weight and pipes which could get messy and frustrating...

i thought tom cruise had a Seca in top gun, and they flew the F-14 tomcats... :S. nevertheless, fork seals and oil have been ordered, so once the stanchions return from re-chroming (thanks again, Jim! ) i can get it on its wheels, another weekends work and it'll be ready to fly

no, the Jawa isnt flying yet, its still in my dads shed with no front end , just need to change the front brake pads and make a rear brake pushrod...

Managed to source a replacement alternator rotor from the Jawa owners club, and now im on my weekend leave i have had time to fit it, took a few kicks to start it after 3 weeks of not being run but now it lives!, getting about 13v across the battery with the engine idleing and 14.5v at about 2000-3000rpm. equals one happy foamy t'is coming together nicely...

we get posting "preferances", id quite like to be at Benson, Brize Norton, Lyneham or somewhere down south so i can still be near my family (the strongest tree is held on the same ground in which he was sown)

Janie - Which intake is he going on?, im currently on Beckett intake 3 weeks into the 9 week course just about to finish my phase 1 training and go play with the rock apes (RAF regiment) for 3 weeks, i'll keep an eye out next week though also, some advice for your step lad; get all your kit labeled the night you get it (Day 01) Never say sorry to any of the instructors/NCOs, all you need to say is "Yes corporal" or "No corporal" Dont fidget or talk when outside. they will notice and you will get bollocked Also, the Phys.Ed staff will beast the living shite out of you for the first two weeks, after that they arent so bad

wtf?

'shrooms

if the engine is running backwards then that would explain the lumpy starting/running, could be caused by extremely advanced ignition timing causing the fuel mixture to pre-detonate and the engine to run backwards, i used to have this trouble when hand-starting model aircraft engines, a common remedy was to open the throttle and drop it back to idle very quickly which would usually cause the engine to start running the correct way again, this may not work with heavier petrol engines though check and reset your points, give your carb a clean, replace your reeds and spark plug/HT cap and lead

hand shandy

lol 'nuff said

well its not really a beasting, more just banter, but its all part of the fun and i dont really mind as far as im concerned 8 weeks cant go fast enough!, 10 days feels like 10 weeks, im not used to being up at 6 and in bed at 11!

followed by the naughty nurse, hopefully Goff?, got any nurse costumes?
