Not that they have anything to do with the 2-stroke scenarios in this thread ?

I missed out on a mint ZX7RR homologation special about 10 yrs ago, i fancied that to be a bit of a weapon, but looking back compared to now a days it probably wasn’t owt too “special” Loved my 1200 Bandit for the hooliganism factor, and loved my Mille RSV-R for the raw punchy factor of the v-twin.

Nice read Steve, you buying one of the surplus stock and sorting it out [emoji6][emoji2]

Never even looked to see what new ones were going for to be honest Bill, just a quick scan this morning before work. I suspect they’ll start to make good strong money now 2nd hand with all stringent emission regs getting pushed more and more. Yet suppliers will probably want shut of old stock to make room for the new lines. So maybe its a good time to buy new as you pointed out at the moment.

One on ebay at min, 2014 model, looks tidy, not much scuffing to underside, possibly suggests its maybe been used a bit for milling ?‍♂️ in a place called March, not mega miles away from ya. Wants cash on collection, no paypal so at least you get to view & try it first. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F292940267904

I jet washed my last lump of beech that landed on my drive, was fairly heavily lashed in mud from being rolled and dragged out of farmer Pete’s wood.

Fair play to ya, enjoy! (Sweet little get together story too![emoji106]) hope it all goes well.

Think you got words in a mucking fuddle there wonky [emoji6][emoji23]

Would all depend whether you still had documents/proof that matched the one advertised before police could get involved. But i would contact the insurance that you were involved with for sure. Always good to catch the culprits/thieves, but the seller on ebay may not be the thief.

Good on ya, you throw it all in that cocoon with ya that has that one use only zip fitted to it. [emoji106]

Spuds the miracle man on power outputs i’m afraid, i’m just a basic Fred in a shed man [emoji30] I cant find owt on a big bore kit Rough, unless your willing to going aftermarket. Personally, cos of its age and the fact they’re getting sought after and scarce, i’d just bring it back to life as standard original and hang it in the games room to be drooled at! But thats just my thoughts. I’ve just bought a meteor kit for my 036 i’m rebuilding. Comparing it to a recent bought nikasil cheapie...... the differences in build quality are worlds apart. Aftermarket be good enough for an occasional run up and use, but put to hard work in a forest daily or beasting through a trunk everyday milling like you do..... i think they’d shat theirselves in no time. Even more so if theyre ported and opened up. Plus you run risk of fudging bottom end too if it does decide to let go. Play safe i say, will give you greater rewards all round. ?

Here ya go Rough, £115 cheaper than what you’ve seen. It’ll be fine coming from America, i’ve had quite a few bits via fleabay from america with no issues [emoji106] https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STIHL-CHAINSAW-090-PISTON-AND-CYLINDER-NEW-OEM-STIHL-66MM-1106-020-1211-/362192296676

You havent posted any pics for a while, any new pieces to show us?

You been at the sprouts again? [emoji6]

Uvex foam bound. The pic shows the snug fit ones, you can also get some that are deeper, that sit further off ya face.

Have you tried the close fit uvex with foam, same as pic above but have a foam barrier for against your face instead of rubber. Obviously slightly better breathability against the skin too. Yeah they attract a bit of sawdust but it literally just brushes off. Will post a pic at work tomoz of a pair.

You best get to bank sharpish Steve, those tenners arent legal tender over counter anymore! [emoji6][emoji23]

Ha!!! You fucking clown!!! ? and you deserve to be poked at for that one!!! ???

Sorry Yolky, couldn’t resist! [emoji6]

Ooohh..... excellent penetration there sir! ?

“We’re on an express elevator to hell!......... going down!”

I’m stocking up with youtube vids on..... “how to survive a hard brexit” Thing is they’re all edited and directed by some bloke called “vespasian”........ he seems well up on the subject though!!!

And i play out the sequel every day! [emoji6]
