  1. A fascinating looking fungi, first time I have seen that one!
  2. One of those would fit in my garage, I would definitely make the room!
  3. That does sound like he was targeted by them, well before he left the vehicle.
  4. Very nice, one thing though, these are bomb proof except for a mild steel washer/ spacer on the ( I think) output shaft, behind the front sprocket, best replaced with a stainless steel one, as the stock one rusts & destroys the output shaft seal causing the engine to dump it's oil. Lovely bike though.
  5. The leader too, nice old bike mate! Here is a link to the LE; Velocette LE - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  6. Do I detect a velocette le? The old bill used to ride them, lovely bikes & ahead of their time, watercooled smoothness!
  7. Eddie, you are doing a great job mate, loads of enthusiasm.
  8. I fitted a small steering wheel too, it does help.

    hi all

    Hello Andy.
  10. No need to feel that way, just decide if you want a future on here, & work it out from there.
  11. It's a great shame if we lose some of the more experienced folk to the actions of a few idiots who chose to disrupt or be offensive.
  12. Plenty on this forum regarding that question, but it spans from potential health benefits through to machine parts longevity.
  13. A great post john, well thought out & timely.
  14. Bottle of rose, & a nice night cap of Harveys Bristol cream, bliss!
  15. It's a great thread mate, & if you need advice it is a good place to ask.
  16. I understand your frustration, but the Aspen wont be your problem. something else is going on with your machine, & you need to find out what the problem is to get it put right. Your shop is wrong in saying that machines need to be converted to run on Aspen, if the shop cant give you accurate advice I would be looking elsewere to get it fixed.
  17. Classic funny!
  18. Known a few over the years, I concur, nice folk in general.

    The last bit about sums it up for me, we all like a good looking lass, no harm in that, but to write about someone who is participating on a thread, (such as this), is way different to honking on about some girl on the tv or in a calendar don't you think?
  20. Nice wee mog that, I like it!

    Nothing to do with being up tight, xmas , or having a bit of fun in my opinion, it's about going a bit easy on a new member, & having respect for the women who come on here. Having an ogle at a calendar is way different to directing posts at an individual who is taking part in the forum, surely that is easy to grasp. Anyway, I'm not having a pop, just expressing my opinion on the matter.

    I feel sorry for the young lass, she comes on here in all innocence & gets some pathetic comments thrown about. Some of the posters should be ashamed of themselves, but I doubt they will, one even says he has 'said nothing' after intoning the op should pm him some pics, priceless ignorance! What happened to having a bit of respect?
  23. That is a fallacy mate, I swallowed three of those, expecting a 'visit' following a phone call from my main admirer, only to find it a struggle not overcome once I got to where my stairs turn 90% to the left. The night was dutifully passed downstairs on the couch, which I proceeded to fall off in my slumber, looking like one of these..
  24. Chris, you have big shoulders, I hope I have too, positivity is an attitude, that in reality is strengthened by being open to other peoples opinions, that meet our favour or not. You know all of this already, & everything absorbed rather than repulsed strengthens anyone's abilities for the future. I do often wish I could take my own advice!
  25. Chris, Im sure Huck has, & if one post something it stands, & one can only expect others opinions to follow, that is the nature of forums & rightly so. You can start a thread, just as I can & do, but you cant control it like you own it, that is good reason to be careful in how one deliberates on pressing the 'submit reply' button, I know I have regretted a few posts I have made, doesn't make me or you a bad person, just a fallible human.
