Bye bye

I'm off to Belfast to pick my bike up.

See you tomorrow, if I'm in any fit state to type.

 

have a couple of pints of Guinness in The Crown - that'd be my recco.

if you're in a fit state to type, you've missed out on a great night.

 

In uk.rec.motorcycles, Lozzo amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom:

Piece of piss. I did London to Coleraine to London in a few[1] hours on
a 400.

[1] More like a day.

 

Good luck with it.

I've just had an idea about your old 9R braking problem.. bit too late
though init?

 

Laydeez an' Gennelmen: the Spic has left the building.

That is all.

 

In uk.rec.motorcycles, Pip amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom:

Is Ireland ready?

 

No, it's not too late - I'd be delighted to hear, if you don't mind.

It may be Bandit specific, but... I noticed that my Bandit brakes, as
well as having anti squeal shims, they come with these thermal
insulating plates that fit in between the shim and the back of the pad.
Some people throw these things away with the pads sometimes [1].

Is it at all possible that the extreme heat of high speed braking is
conducting through the pad, and heats up the pistons to such an extent
as to boil the fluid? Boiled fluid has the effect of bringing the lever
back to the bar in extreme cases.

[1]I'm not saying that you have, or did..

90 minutes to spare. It's a big boat but the loading ramp may not be
wide enough to accommodate his grin.
Smart boy that, he sussed one important reason I like it here inside 90
minutes.
Pip, perk the coffee around midnight.

Eh ? I'm fecked if i'm getting the espresso pot on every time I want a
coffee.

That being said, I very very seldom drink instant.

I picked up one of these last time I went to Canada.

They pull the grounds out of the pot rather than letting them fester in
the bottom of the coffee pot. Well recommended & much better than those
crappy Bodums.

Cheers

Paul.

 

I use an old-fashioned percolator. Excellent coffee, every time. No
hassle.
