  1. Might accidentally hit the horn switch in a section.
  2. bifsgasgas - your right, you cant let air out a security bolt, or blow the tyre up with it either. As I discovered last night!
  3. I will need to check the description, but the capacitor (big blue lucas) is much larger than a conventional unit. As you say, it discharges when the points close, but if the plug is out it has nowhere to go. Worked for me.
  4. Maybe the way to get the EU to lift its ban on American Beef would be to stop treating it with growth hormones, seems kind of obvious to me. If the customer doesn't want your product the way you sell / produce it, surely you change the production method ? Is this not just a back door method of banning off road bikes ?
  5. How about a new forum devoted to the above as these question appear frequently throughout various bike specific forums, and alot of the solutions are general.
  6. If he does disappear, just look up his a**, he seems to spend most of his time there. (my original comment was tongue in cheek)
  7. Didn't realize you had an artistic bent !
  8. Good point about the straps, I personally wouldn't use straps with the S type ends as they can pop off if the cars bounces.
  9. Can I for one welcome back Johnathan Ross, I hope you have had time to reflect on your wrongdoings, and are very very sorry.
  10. Yeah, the MP's are about to give themselves a 25% pension hike.

    If its an Acerbis plastic tank (I think they were) a tap from a more modern Acerbis tank will probably fit, take the old one to a dealer as an example.
  12. Higher octane has less knock.
  13. Having your side stand on the right keeps the clutch out of the oil, and causes less slip when kicking over. Also try trialsbits.co.uk for parts.
  14. British bikes are a love hate kind of relationship.
  15. Ear plugs, seriously if its just a bit noisy I would think twice.
  16. Lanarkshire club has Rule 9. Every rider has to nominate a round during the year to observe.
  17. Might just be me, but if conjures up images of Arther Daley type characters.
  18. No it works, not for long though.
  19. The capacitor gets charged up if you kick it over with the plug out, when you reconnect it you get a better spark.
  20. It may be a style thing, or lack of, but I cant think of any time when i've hit me chest on the bars.
