You have been busy, looking good. How many more hours / days do you recon till its debut ? Ross

He used to be called Dog Stevens, but changed his name to Yusruf Islam.

Have both left & right kickstarts, doesn't bother me at all. Gearchange / brake takes a little more getting used to.

Do you stock them Willie ? Or how long to get a pair ?

Whats the best pads for these ? Presently using sintered ones which have no feel and little stopping power, but at least they are consistent ! Any clever tricks to improve it ? Thanks Ross

Thanks Martin (you got the Cq?)

Can't think of many / any sport that has made such a fundamental change to its basic rule, ie stopping is a failure.

I know most of the names, who are the other gentlemen ?

Or one of these http://search.diy.com/search#w=grinders&asug=

A quote from the Perth Club website :- "Trials: Meetings were originally held on part on, part off road and covered vast areas including Killin, Kenmore, Aberfeldy, Glen Lyon, Crieff, Methven, Bridge of Earn - in effect all of Perthshire, and a bit more." How about a twin shock 2-day based on the above. I would love such an event if it was at all possible ! Ross

Just glanced at the above and thought it was commemorating 600 yrs of wa*king !

Whats wrong with having more than one class ? For arguments sake call them BRITSHOCK, or TRICKSHOCK, or Pre ????????? No reply required.

"carefully" put a slot for screwdriver with a dremel, or similar.

I like the "un-competitive" pre-65's, it's the "modern Pre65 bikes" I have issue with. Call them Bit twin shock if it make them any more acceptable ! From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "The word classic means something that is a perfect example of a particular style, something of lasting worth or with a timeless quality." Doesn't say anything about Marzocchi's in Norton Roadholders or dry, belt driven clutches.

I got my one back, eventually. Its an earlier TX 240 with conventional Piolli (sp)forks, so cant help with oil etc. Ross

Rotax engine parts are still available, though rarely needed. The rest is also usually reliable, what do you need ?

get some black trousers !

Hi Pat Not sure, it seems to have been posted by the Lambretta Club, sounds like an "Army" film ! Ross

Another difference flywheel wise is the Aprilia Rotax doesn't have the weight on the clutch side.

From toofastim :- A guy goes to the supermarket and notices a very attractive woman wave at him and say hello. He's rather taken aback, because he can't place where he knows her from. So he says, "Do you know me?" To which she replies, "I think you're the father of one of my kids." Now his mind races. He racks his brain and travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife and says, "My God, are you the stripper from Fred's stag night that I shagged on the pool table with all my buddies watching, while your partner whipped me with wet celery???" She looks into his eyes and calmly says, "No, I'm your son's Grade 3 teacher"

I have a BSA B40 with 4 gears, wish it had 5 or 6. To many compromises with only 4, IMO.

Hi Pat Sounds like you remember it well ? Pete - Planning on going to the wobblers, might take the Aprilia for a change ! Still running it in. Ross
