Hi Harry, welcome to the forum, Not seen many of those advertised but apart from the obvious keep an eye out on ebay, Also if youre in uk it might be worthwhile buying classic motorcycle mechanics, always a good selection of oldies in there.

Thundercat shock settings, any help please?
Hello John and welcome to the forum mate, Heres my two penneth The bike is ten years old...Did anyone ever change the fork oil in that time?, If you cant answer this then do it anyway Check the swing arm bushes by putting the bike on centre or paddock stand, hold the back of the wheel and try to push it side to side, you should find no movement here Find out the correct recommended tyre pressures for your bike and stick to these Apply front brake sit on bike and rock the bike back and forward, check for movement at the steering head bearings

Might the sun explode if i use the wrong battery?
If its a case of digging it out and not too sure where it is, Then theres every chance it will also be a little on the buggered side of functional when you do find it (They need maintenance charging)

That sounds good to me, When I started (Not that long ago) I too wondered what these acronyms meant, I used to put questions about them in my sig area as a means of finding out.

Shipwrecked
A Welshman was washed up on a beach after a terrible shipwreck. Only a sheep and a sheepdog were washed up with him. Looking around, he realised that they were stranded on a deserted island. After being there a while, he got into the habit of taking his two animal companions to the beach every evening to watch the sun set. One particular evening, the sky was a fiery red with beautiful cirrus clouds, the breeze was warm and gentle - a perfect night for romance. As they sat there, the sheep started looking better and better to the lonely Welshman. Soon, he leaned over to the sheep and... put his arm around it. But the sheepdog, ever protective of the sheep, growled fiercely until the man took his arm from around the sheep.. After that, the three of them continued to enjoy the sunsets together but there was no more cuddling. A few weeks passed by and, lo and behold, there was another shipwreck. The only survivor was a beautiful young woman, the most beautiful woman the man had ever seen.. She was in a pretty bad way when he rescued her and he slowly nursed her back to health. When the young maiden was well enough, he introduced her to their evening beach ritual. It was another beautiful evening... red sky, cirrus clouds, a warm and gentle breeze - perfect for a night of romance. Pretty soon, the Welshman started to get 'those feelings' again. He fought the urges as long as he could but he finally gave in and, realising he now had the opportunity, leaned over to the young woman cautiously and whispered in her ear, 'Would you mind taking the dog for a walk?'

Age old question of which oil?
Hello and welcome subbyrob Semi synthetic 10w40, Just done my Bandit £20 for four litres, But im sure you could use Tescos or Halfords finest for less cost. Fully synthetic is generally regarded as a no no in bikes due to the wet clutch. (clutch slip issues)

Who Wants to be a Millionaire?
Mick appeared on the Irish version of 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' and was nearly at the end of the quiz with winnings of £500,000.. 'You've done very well so far,' said the show's presenter, 'to get the £1 million, you've only got one lifeline left - phone a friend. Everything is riding on this question . . . will you have a go?' 'Sure,' said Mick. 'I'll have a go!' 'OK. The question is: Which of the following birds does NOT build its' own nest?' a) Robin b Sparrow c) Cuckoo or d) Thrush.' 'I haven't got a clue,' said Mick, 'so I'll use my last lifeline and phone me friend Paddy back home in Ballygoon.' Mick called up his mate, told him the circumstances and repeated the question to him. 'Foockin hell, Mick!' cried Paddy. 'Dat's simple . . . it's a Cuckoo.' 'Are you sure, Paddy?' asked Mick. 'I'm foockin sure Mick.' Mick hung up the phone and told the TV presenter, 'I'll go with da Cuckoo as my answer.' 'Is that your final answer? Lock it in?' asked the host. 'Dat it is, Sir. Lock it in..' There was a long, long pause, then the presenter screamed, 'Cuckoo is the correct answer! Mick, you've won £1 million!' The next night, Mick invited Paddy to their local pub to buy him a drink. 'Tell me, Paddy - how in God's name did you know it was the Cuckoo that doesn't build its own nest? I mean, you know fook-all about birds.' 'Ah bejaysus!' laughed Paddy. 'Everybody knows a foockin' Cuckoo lives in a clock!'
