when I had my first bike, a standard well worn 250 Royal Enfield I dreamed of one day owning a bike that did "the ton" as life moved on and that was achieved I had no idea that before I gave up bikes completely I would double that magical figure. I speak occasionally with an old deerstalker friend,with a military background and now approaching 90 years old, tells me there comes a time when the killing stops, you grassed enough deer, the quest for speed dwindles, and you cant predict when it happens, but it surely does, but until that moment,,, give it hell.

Well we shall see in the long run if it’s a wise move. Just purchased a 2023 KX450X to play on when home( Something to amuse me other than my hobby Trakmet @5thelement) Not back for a while yet but looking forward to getting some hours in. I’m under no illusions the mind might be willing but the body certainly will be complaining. Certainly nothing like the bike fitness and balls of years ago, 86CR500 at Stranraer beach race late 80s flat out on the beach straight was an adrenaline hit big time.

The disappointment in the 350 husqvarna, was quickly surpassed by the joy of finding two immaculate Danarms a 125, and a dd8f fully working condition with a box of spares and the original operators manuals. sometimes your the tree and sometimes your the dog.

Had the 750 version for a long time Mike, great bike and had a blast taking the Fred Olsen ferry from Newcastle to Oslo years ago and onwards to Finland. No strings or commitments then 👍😂. Peterhansel nailing the works 900 version at the old Paris Dakar was an awesome sight.

L and S seem to be on the up and up, and rightly so. Driving through Brum the other day I saw that they had an advert on a huge electronic billboard beside one of the main trunk roads in. Quite surprised. The owner is a lovely guy. He told me once that he started out sweeping the floor in a factory.

Some pics Can I reuse the cylinder I wonder I measured the ring 32mm Piston, I removed piston ring from cylinder and inserted into cylinder on its own. Piston ring gap of 8 thousands measured with feeler gauges. Ring gap should be 5thousands per inch, thus for a 32mm should be 6.5thousands or thereabouts, 8 thousands is not bad. See some photos, any ideas what caused it. Damage Piston - Cant feel the damage with the skin on the pad of my finger, but can feel the damage with my fingernail. I guess I need a new piston and cylinder Cylinder - Cant feel any damage with either pad of my finger or finger nail, except for the edge I have highlighted, it was not a good idea cutting a pocket out of the cylinder wall like that when Maruyama were doing their design. was wondering could I reuse the cylinder. ? Cylinder head is shiny on one side, thats not the side with the arrow. The arrow side points towards exhaust.

I feckin' wonder sometimes. I really do, some of you cutns are like circling vultures waiting for the next post from your chosen adversary so you can have yet another go at twisting and ridiculing whatever they said, oblivious to the fact that you are just as feckin' antagonizing as you perceive them to be, Anno is correct in as much as much of the forum that could be used for debate descends into a pissing contest.

Anyone recognise this tree?

I didn't know about the asymmetric leaf base, but the corky bark with wings made me think elm. Narrowing the species down would be the difficult bit. -
I don't know, it'll be getting marked soon so will work out then. 20 Yr old first thinnings it is.
