Prick on Mobile Phone...
totally agree, got some knob on an R1 cutting traffic in a 30, double white lines, blind left had bend. just took off at 50 and forces peeps to pull over. saw an old guy walking along the road holding his hands up in despair. i knew what he was thinking " fucking bikes" you could here the bike's revs wind up 1/2 mile away. although I am a "sunday" biker, I don't take risks or upset people without cause!!

OG's summer ride out
OG out on a long summer ride on his DT, pulls up to a tavern in the middle of no where, parks his bike and walks inside. As he passes through the swinging doors, he sees a sign hanging over the bar: COLD BEER: £2.00 HAMBURGER: £2.25 CHEESEBURGER: £2.50 CHICKEN SANDWICH : £3.50 HAND JOB: £50.00 Checking his wallet to be sure he has the necessary payment, OG walks up to the bar and beckons to the exceptionally attractive female bartender who is serving lemonade to wild Foamy and a couple of his Moped friends. She glides down behind the bar to the old biker. "Yes?" she inquires with a wide, knowing smile, "may I help you?" OG leans over the bar, "I was wondering young lady," he whispers, "are you the one who gives the hand-jobs?" She looks into his eyes with that wide smile and purrs "Why yes, yes, I sure am". OG leans closer and into her left ear whispers softly, "Well, wash your hands really good, cause I want a cheeseburger".

XS400 DOHC weird problem
looks like you had a great time. the place look gorge!! just check your fuse holder for loose connection, as these can fracture and cause intermittent faults. I'd also check the venting in the gas cap as this will reduce fuel flow!! drewps
