  1. Get both and have done with it.
     
  2. Had to have a new radiator for my car
     
  3. unfortunately cooling probs are notorious on that model. the only problem they have.
     
  4. I'm off work till 02/05. Going to fit a hot start relay to my camper van. Then I am going to bathe my slipper clutch plates in lithium grease and bake em in oven once SWMBO goes out later tonight. Even more evil is that she is purchasing the grease from the motor shop for me this afternoon. Mwuah ha ha. (must remember to remove battery from smoke alarm).

    Then finishing off my power supply from leisure battery in engine bay to front of bus. Just need to reconnect windscreen wipers and tidy the wiring up. All int lights, hifi, and fag lighter socket at front now from LB.

    If new throttle butterfly shims arrive too then I will fix that and reset my carb.

    Might then go for a chug.
     
  5. go for a chug first. save any greasy tell tail marks.
     
  6. See you on the news later then

  7. Just discovered one of my clutch springs had come loose and had filed a nice groove around inside of my OEM clutch cover. Discovered in time.
     
  8. p/x'd the R6 but I'm not saying what for. You'll only get upset.
     
  9. Wonder if it is worth slipping in a convex or two. 9 friction and 9 plain on an STM48t.
     
  10. He's bought that dodgy 916.
     
  11. nah, he's getting El T's 848
     
  12. enjoy your bilge pump.
     
  13. I bought the big boy version of the R6. I also got offered more in PX than I paid for it, so the cost to change was minimal. Huzzah.

  14. Went for a short run just now, my first since I got back from the Desert.
    How did I get so out of shape, so quickly?
     
  15. I'm back on the running right now, my legs are keeping me awake at night. I haven't run for about a year, so my first run, with the intention of 10 miles ended up being 3. But I've increased each day since then... 3,6,7,8 and 9 tonight until Im back up to 10.
     
  16. 10? Young Man, WTF are you, a Terminator? :smile:

    In the Desert I was managing 2.6 miles in coughspluttercough minutes. A mile has just now made me burn my lungs.

    My legs aren't the problem, or at least, not my first problem. It's getting enough breath to run comfortably that I struggle with. There's probably more scar-tissue in my lungs than lungs.
     
  17. I'm at 3000 feet altitude here too, so when I get home I should be able to destroy the bigger distances.

    I also got given this today for free :):):) Not due to be calibrated for another 18 months too!!

  18. Did 4.3 miles the night before last on the treadmill while watching the wheeler dealers polish a turd of a BMW - that took me about 40 mins...don't know if that's shite or not....
     

  19. What is it, a cricket bat?
     
  20. That looks like an altitude based cricket bat....
