  1. Skill???? Learn???? For fucks sake, its natural aint it If you dont put your leg down, you fall over, simple as Heck, you dont half talk bollocks
  2. Aye, but he doesnt have to stop at any traffic lights
  3. Your xj and the yx600 share a lot of common parts. Your engine/frame/wheels etc all look the same as the ones on my yx. I've just checked the dims on my yoke, the centre to centre distances are the same, however my forks clock up at 36mm dia(with a digital caliper). Please double check yours
  4. Dang, looks like Taskmaster has beat us all to it My old draggy finished up as my winter bike, just upped the care and attention a little to keep it in good shape. Road it as what it was, couldn't fault it

    The Storm

    Kind of got me thinking about weather and how we react to it these days. Do we tend to overeact and make a crisis out of these events? I'm sure that some of you,like me, remember the winter of 63. Jeez, snowed and froze all winter from around Christmas to mid march, snow several feet thick, even here. Never thawed until March. School never shut, when we weren't in school, we were out sledging down Stony Clouds, building igloos etc, and never felt the cold With 5 kids in the house, the kitchen was always full of wet clothes, and my father never missed a day off work, and mother never failed to go down to the localshops for the daily supplies. I dont recall either of them ever complaining. Aunts and uncles were skating across Derwentwater between Portinscale and Keswick as they coul;dnt walk or drive there Frost was so thick on my bedroom window it formed those wonderful tree like patterns As a nation, we just seemto have got on with it, without emergency planners/risk assesors/weather forecasts/central heating.......... Cant help thinking perhaps.........nations gone soft?

    The Storm

  7. Dont see the point in getting out of the shower to have a piss Never shit in my own time, always at work
  8. Relax the arms and legs/back
  9. No wonder no one else visits the earth Must be the equivalent of the galactic school run
  10. Lets hope he dont find out Sent from my PC: using fingers on a keyboard
  11. What a contrast! If that were the UK, the civil liberties ponces would have a field day
  12. Part no for your Virago is 57A-26335-00 Part No for 81 Maxim 650 is 4H7-26335-00, now superceded by 15R-26335-00 If my understanding of Yam part nos is correct, then it looks like its the same cable First 3 digits refer to the model no Next 5 refer to the actual part no Last 2 relate to any revisions Got to be worth a try, particularly as the maxim is a scrapper
  13. If it feels right, go for it I guess you will have left school at 15 or 16 and had 45 years plus of graft keeping a roof over the family's heads Later life is the only chance many of us get to spoil ourselves Unless youre a millionaire, of course

  15. I think its just another way to communicate mindless chit-chat for the under 30s
  16. Just a word of caution Pin holes are the visible sign of rot, if youre getting pinholes, its likely that the surrounding area is reduced is structural strength too, but you cant see it yet. Is it possible to "plate over" over the area, or slice the frame, and sleeve it?
