Were I to harm them I agree entirely, but I did say dissuade them, I have installed an electric stock fence along my boundry, & it does the job, without harming them.

At the end of the day, like cats or not, they do in general destroy vulnerable wildlife, distract from neighbors enjoying their bird tables, & foul third party private ground, often where children play, such as in their sand pits. I have & will not tolerate this intrusion into my property, as neither would I a neighbors dog, budgie, horse, wife, or children...so what gives the cat owner the right to inflict this on me repeatedly? We all know the answer to that, so if the owner chooses to do nothing to prevent the migrant moggy from straying, ( which is easy enough to do with correct boundary fencing), then I am going to have to dissuade the felines faecal forays by my own methods if I wish to maintain my garden as a healthy safe & wildlife abundant area. Can anyone seriously tell me I have no right to do so, on a moral standing?

Run a compression test if all else fails, might need a new set of rings/ piston kit. Most likely a carb or ancilaries issue, these things generally are, but at ten years old, depending on use, it could just be feeling tired.

Here is yours I believe David, https://www.waterways.org.uk/waterways/waterways_l'>https://www.waterways.org.uk/waterways/waterways_l And the home page: https://www.waterways.org.uk/ I edited as I had the wrong link in the first one, now corrected.

I have a contract with a local/ national waterways authority, they have their own ground based crew & also a flat bottomed craned dredger, I undertake works that they are not qualified for. The waterways are inspected by their workers, the managers & any trees down cleared by the appropriate methods. Any standing, deemed dangerous are tpo checked etc, then I go in. They do rely to some extent on public calling in with information, as employees can't be everywhere all the time, & I myself keep an eye on & report problems I come across. Trees & limbs in the water are dealt with on a scale of urgency, If they are obstructing traffic, or blocking the infrastructure they are prioritized, like everything else these things are to some extent governed by financial constraints..

I would scoff it, with loads of tommy K & mustard, yummy!

Well I must say, I take my hat off to Richard, 'Timberwolf Sales', I think he has done a fantastic job on this thread, he has given good info, straight talk and good humor..:thumbup1:

Check out this road rage incident, trust me, it is not what you would expect! LiveLeak.com - Road Rage - Trust me, this is not the outcome you were expecting

It was a most enthusiastic use of them, highly commendable...

Good luck... My take on the subject, cats should wear bells if allowed to roam free, it distresses me to see them killing wild birds, they are not part of the food chain but a born killer let loose on wildlife by irresponsible owners...the times I see clients with bird food tables, encouraging the wildlife into their gardens, who also own cats that hunt. Or who have to try and prevent neighbor's cats from hunting in their gardens.

I like long and low, yours is a classic! Blinking fast too! My tastes in bikes covers all spectrums, but a bike that is beyond the norm of any type rings my bell. Sent from my bling phone with great dexterity.
-
My sentiments entirely, it must be gutting to have this happen.
-
That does sound very strong on price.

You will settle, you need to to be efficient long term, make a tick list if you are going to bed with things running in your mind.

Lovely looking machine there Timberwolf!

I was looking at it, they are a pussy cat to ride, no frantic gear changes, or power band as such, just a heavy seamless run of torque that overwhelms your mind if you open it up, at any revs, they peak in both power & torque at about 6000rpm. If you double up on the base gasket they soften a bit, & will rev out higher, (with a wiseco piston for lightness). I did a lot of enduros on mine like this, but felled more trees racing than I did in the day job!

I used to race one, wish I never sold it but hey ho....it was a great bike in the Weston beach race, power everywhere, & the speed down the straight was just outrageous with tall gearing. It is a dream bike for me to get another, but the right one will pop up.

I'm looking for a road legal cr500, they are a lovely bike, yours does look great.
-
Superb post, I too wish them all the best with this, they have listened to the trades and responded.

Well dealt with, He is going to love those spikes, they are superb!

Aha, neither, If your after buying him a present, good luck in your choice, if it's for yourself you could do worse then Echo, as suggested.
