  1. With a big 'Status Quo' patch on the back, and stinkin of patchouli oil
  2. Ahh I didnt know a 125 dt R was water cooled, well now, just get a big hammer , some mole grips , some 'plug-it' (sold in most good submarine shops),,, that doesn't sound good m8y, like Mad.Vez says its a good learning experience if you wanna give it a go good luck
  3. http://media.photobucket.com/image/shell%20suits/keikongunther/zoo%20pix/Field%20Museum/DSC08310.jpg?o=4 "Armadillo,-rat"
  4. Firstly dont panic-its unlikely that a perished seal would let enough water into the gearbox to cause 'emulsifying',(oil and water smoothie-foam), unless you are wading the bike through water its more likely to be condensation inside the engine and gearbox. get new oil and filters (oil and air),,,warm the bike up and then drain it (leave overnight with drain tray underneath), buy 5 litres of parrafin (garden centre)-with drain plug in-fill engine til it wont take anymore (if this is done after thoroughly steam cleaning the engine you might detect the parrafin leaking from any perished seals or 'O' rings), with you and your best mate shaking the bike vigorously from side to side, next remove plug caps and turn the bike over ( ) by pressing the start, or kicking it over ( ), drain this 'flush' off,clean out any breather hoses and airbox, renew oil and filters- done, you can buy commercialy available engine flush-but its probably parrafin in a nice bottle and will be 're-assuringly expensive' ! HTH PM me if you get stuck
  5. Take a closer look-when theyre in town or taking it sedately-most of them take their left hand off the bars and hold onto their willy ! whats that all about ?
  6. this is what power rangers look like Mike, http://media.photobucket.com/image/power%20rangers/Warden_bz/PowerRangersMMPR2.jpg?o=1 its true some are often far too busy showing off or looking 'like a pair of dogz danglies' to acknowledge anyone else 'not dressed up', but the same goes for other biker 'types' who dont nod back-theyre far more important than you, see !
  7. Wow thats a 'stunna' you got there, I like, welcome to the forum Tony !
  8. There is a medical distinction. We've all heard about people having guts or balls but do you really know the difference between them? to keep you informed, the definitions are listed below: GUTS-Is arriving home late after a night out with the boys , being met by your wife with a broom , and having the guts to ask "Are you still cleaning, or, are you flying somewhere?" BALLS-Is coming home late after a night out with the boys , smelling of perfume, and beer, lip-stick on your collar, and slapping your wife on the arse, and having the balls to say "You're next, fatty."
  9. Still happens up here, along with something new that seems to be catching on, for the past month or so I've been aware of drivers beeping their horn-for 5 seconds or more, try it, 5 seconds is quite a long time, anyway, turns out this is a protest at other drivers on their mobiles, tut tut
  10. If its within your budget and you like the look then go for it, would think its a pain to clean though, you could probably touch it up with black high temp paint now and then, as for the other advice you got- well like most things bike related its down to personal choice and experience, part of the fun is trying things out go with your gut !
  11. a different contributor will have a chance to 'spin that platter' this weeks choice has been made by Ttaskmaster tsk! tsk!
  12. So the general concensus, so far, we're being force-fed
  13. some good points made, think you've got the most relevant OG - lethargy thats 2 yays, and 2 nays so far

  15. Hi all, have a read at this post please, and chip in with your notion of pro's and con's, its spreading so keep an eye on a forecourt near you, personaly I think it could turn a whisper into a shout, The price of oil is as low as it has been for a while, the oil companies have simply jacked their prices up and the government will not do anything as they rake in extra VAT for every increase. See what you think and pass it on if you agree with it We are hitting 114.9 a litre in some areas now, soon we will be faced with paying 1.50 a ltr. Philip Hollsworth offered this good idea: This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the 'don't buy petrol on a certain day campaign that was going around last April or May! The oil companies just laughed at that because they knew we wouldn't continue to hurt ourselves by refusing to buy petrol. It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them. BUT,whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really work. Will this work ?????????????????? Please read it and join in! Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a litre is CHEAP, we need to take aggressive action to teach them that BUYERS control the market place not sellers. With the price of petrol going up more each day, we consumers need to take action. The only way we are going to see the price of petrol come down is if we hit someone in the pocket by not purchasing their Petrol! And we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves. Here's the idea: For the rest of this year DON'T purchase ANY petrol from the two biggest oil companies (which now are one), ESSO and BP. If they are not selling any petrol, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit. But to have an impact we need to reach literally millions of Esso and BP petrol buyers. It's really simple to do!! Now, don't wimp out at this point... keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!! I am sending this note to a lot of people. If each of you send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)... and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000) ... and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers! If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted! If it goes one level further, you guessed it... .. THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!! Again, all You have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all.(and not buy at ESSO/BP) How long would all that take? If each of us sends this email out to ten more people within one day of receipt,all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next 8days!!! Acting together we can make a difference . If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on. PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE 90p a LITRE RANGE It's easy to make this happen. Just join this group and get all your FB friends to join or forward as an email to everyone in your address book, and buy your petrol at Shell, Asda,Tesco, Sainsburys, Morrisons Jet etc. i.e.. boycott BP and Esso
  16. Dear Xone_ladyrider Happy birthday 2 u, Ang hindi (marunong) lumingon sa pinanggalingan, di makararatíng sa paroroonan

    Numbers

    how many zeros are there in a billion ? A Billion Pounds means nothing unless you can relate it to something we can understand better. I hope this helps you to understand what a mess our government has got us into. Thank you Mr Darling!! How many zeros in a billion? This is too true to be funny. The next time you hear a politician use the Word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about Whether you want the 'politicians' spending YOUR tax money. A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, But one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of it's releases. A. A billion seconds ago it was 1959. B.. A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive. C. A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age. D. A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.. E. A billion Pounds ago was only 13 hours and 12 minutes, at the rate our government is spending it. Building Permit Tax / Cigarette Tax / Corporate TAX / Income Tax / Unemployment Tax / Fishing License Tax Food tax / Fuel Tax / Petrol/Diesel Tax / Inheritance Tax / Capital Gains Tax / (tax on top of tax) / Alcohol Tax Marriage License Tax / Property Sales Tax / Local Rates Tax / Service Charge Taxes / Social Security/NI Tax Television Licence Tax / Road fund Tax / Car Parking Tax / Vehicle License Registration Tax / Vehicle Sales Tax / Value Added Tax??? - Tax Tax Tax on Tax STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY? Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago...and our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world. We had absolutely no national debt... We had the largest middle class in the world... And Mum stayed home to raise the kids. What the hell happened????
