You spouting off about doing the right thing and getting stuck in is great when you're 3000 miles away in country with very little in the way of a Muslim comunity. You lost me? We have a fairly large Muslim comunity. Maybe not as large as the UK. It only took 13 terorist to kill 3000 here. We all want the same thing I beleive. I didn't realize I was "spouting off". I thought I was asking a question. If you'll look back over the years at any thread that brings up politics you'll see that within a couple of post someone is bashing away at MY country. Am I just supposed to ignore it? Would you? Seems to me folks get madder at each other that should be on the same side than they do at the real trouble makers. The folks that want us wiped of the face of the planet.

So, Are most of you liberal or conservative? Religious or not? Against the war in Iraq? I'm really not trying to stir things up (this time) I just haven't seen one post from the UK that's been conservative. What's the ratio of Brits that go to church on Sunday?

Any suggestions for a camera (cheap) that will work well for close ups of products (for listing on line)? Mine gets too blurry at close range.

Any one have any comments on what would be the best forks to retrofit and still be pre 1980?

It'll be interesting to see if Guatamala brings in more fans than last years World Round at TTC. I honestly thought we'd have more people than we did.

I didn't mean to get off track. So another site need to host the picture to have it be a big ona and not a thumbnail?

Cope, the UK only has state sponsored news. They only get a liberal look on everything. Imagine if all we had was CNN. I guess they don't know that ALL of our congress had a vote on going into Iraq and they all voted to go in. PRESIDENT Bush isn't a king. We are a replubic, we vote. Better blame all of us over here. Scratch that, CREDIT all of us. I'm getting so sick of the same old Cr@p. "I'm glad Saddam's not in charge but we shouldn't have gone to war" "Were are the WMD's, Saddam didn't have any!" Probably was running a little low after killing a couple hundred thousand of his people. We also gave him a couple months to move what was left to Syria. We could go on and on, couldn't we? I'm not going to convince anyone that we did what we needed to do am I? Aren't you all glad you have the freedom to speak your minds. Many people in the world can't.

Any parts left? 427 side oiler?

Looks like the engine compartment of a 62 Fairlane after the Crites kit.

Chris should dig out a 2 stroke Montesa and ride it. Seems like he got along better with the Monty 2 stroke IMHO.

Glenn, Sorry I didn't make it but my plaques did! Wife had surgery the Wed before. Watching the 13 year old, 4 year old, and the 5 month old and doing my best to help her. Trying to get to the 58K tomorrow! ?

Obviously chatting on Trials Central isn't going to change anyones minds about relgion. Faith is just that, not science, not proof. Don't forget, Thomas was a desciple and HE thought he needed to be shown everything too (and he was). That where the phrase "Doubting Thomas" comes from.

New base gasket is on it's way. Looks like it's about .025" thicker than stock before it's squished. It should lower it by about a half point at least.

For me it's a cheap TL125 that I've had for 31 years. Love the other better bikes but I have a huge soft spot for my TL. It'll never be done but I'll keep plugging away at it. Maybe someday I can get a nice Seeley or a RTL or a TLM or.................................

You know, I hate high taxes but the one thing I'd be in favour of it more taxes to build more jails. The same few folks keep commiting the same crimes. Taking lives, raping, molesting, stealing. Not including what that does to our emotions, families and pocketbooks, it drives up insurance. I'd hate to be a cop and keep arresting the same people over and over just so a judge can let them walk with a slap on the wrist. Any one have any ideas on how to fix it? Added on edit. When I read the first post I was whistling to myself subconsciencly "Imagine" by John Lennon Now I just caught myself whistling "Revolution" weird

Less "tickover" Off idle it would have more of a tendency to stall. Add that along with the famous 4 stroke off idle cough and BAM, that's a 5!

Nigel.

This year, the 58K at the TTC, The Octobertest, and the Vintage race days at the HUGE Barber Museum are all being held on the same weekend. Hey Promoters, can we fix this for next year? Thanks!

Wow Lee, You need a map! Steve's only about 2500 miles from Detroit. Glenn's probably 750. Biff, Windfall. Those are the ones to tell you. She should have no trouble in that area.

Vinnied, can I nab that picture?

Oops, I guess it wasn't on of my trophies then. I should have read better Biff.

Let me do some measuring and I'll send you a thicker base gasket to help on the compression. Send me an e mail Brian (at sign) metalmarkers.org

Well, that was good. I'm riding a Blue 01 and I still had my list wrong! DOH

Wilson, what county are you in?
