Lozzo and Bandit down....again

That'll teach you to ride a pile of shit and expect it to last.

Uncle Pip will bodge it better.

 

Don't involve me in it. I only ever rode it once and decided it was
just another wanky parts bin special, aka a Suzuki Bandit.

 

gws you daft fucker.

if you'd given me or Andy a call you could have got a lift home. we're
both home now though.

I think you've just been whooshed. Have a look at the ukrmc FAQ or
google groups for potential enlightenment regarding Kenny Boi and brake
disks.

 

FFS how many people have to point out he's a well known troll before
the rest of you fuckers believe it? Have a look at his history in
UKRM-C if you need proof.

Glad you're not banged up worse mate, give me a shout if anything (other

I've got his other id kf'd but hadn't see this one before.

 

I don't frequent ukrmc (mainly because it seems to attract a higher
number of anally retentive cunts than most groups) so have missed his
gems of wisdom.

My arguement in favour of skimming discs is based on the fact that I
worked for a company who made braking systems for GP Karts and a good
part of their work involved having their discs returned for skimming.
They actually sold the discs from new with a good allowance for a skim
or two.

Kenny can **** right off as far as I'm concerned because he's just a
****.

 

Fucked linkage bearings caused by never being greased, and finally making
their way through the linkages is far more likely!

You wouldn't know Chris, because the last time you took a spanner to
your Raleigh Runabout Wilson was in Downing Street. You've spent the
last forty years wanking over old issues of Motorcycling Quarterly.

 

They can and they do, you fucktard.

 

True in most cases.

That's why people employ experts like Andy.

Get a clue. Have you ever done any engineering?

Whoever said Hoyt would never be replaced?

I'm almost tempted to get the reekie crowd involved so they can check
out the standard of wanker we're now having to deal with.

 

Why do you think he's made an insurance claim and who, in their right
mind, would insure a Shite Old Bandit more than TPF&T?

 

Kennyboi if we re-treaded the groove pattern in your brain you'd still
be a moron.

 

Just give me a sec to take off the multi-newsgroup filter.

 

I'd agree if that was a shite old Bandit that'd been through a dozen
uncaring owners.

OK, it was, but Loz had the rear suspension apart and rebuilt. I'm
inclined to suspect an undetected crack or sheared pivot. Pure
speculation at the moment though.

 

No it isn't. The first giveaway will be the fact that your discs will
show signs of rust and the second will be go and apply a magnet and
see what happen. Magnetic stainless steel is uncommon and only used
for specific purposes. Brake rotors aren't one of those specifics.

Just in case curiosity gets the better of you, I tried a magnet on the
10R, the 9R, the Bandit 12 and the Triumph Daytona. All magnetic.

Stainless discs may have been common a few years ago but so were
spoked wheels.
I'd love to know what the "work" a disc does to work harden it.

Old discs made from stainless might get hard after extreme heat such
as that produced by metal to metal contact but they'd be blue after
that sort of treatment and nobody would waste their time skimming a
disc that had gone blue.

This isn't my field. I consider myself a bit of an expert in a
different area of engineering but not this. This shit is basic
engineering.
Most discs that are skimmed are only about 0.010" out. That's enough
to make your brakes judder and is a small enough amount to be removed
by shimming onto a magnetic chuck and then grinding one side flat
before reversing on the chuck and grinding the other.

This is basic engineering.

It's obvious he hasn't but this post isn't for his benefit.

You are indeed but GWS anyway.
