M8 thread pitch on honda motorcycles.

You should preface every one of your "answers" with "No, I don't, BUT",
dipshit!
Your answer actually DID have a bit of relevance in this case (Tremendous
fucking shock there!) It would have helped a lot to explain how you, as a
particularly dense texan, came to understand a system describing length per
thread vs threads per inch. Amazingly your answer was about 100 lines less
than usual. On new meds???

Suck my dick, asshole!

Who *could* give a succinct answer to such a vague question as "Anyone
know the thread pitch on Honda M8 bolts?"

To answer a *stupid* question like that, I would have to know what
thread
Honda selected for *every* 8mm bolt on *every* model they ever built.

Instead, I told the lamer how to measure the pitch on the bolt he had
in his possession, and that's what he did, before spending his money
on a thread repair kit.

 

Glad you could swallow it, slime throat.

You like cowboys?

I'm not a Texan, I just found the hat. ;-)

Naw, I'm just learning to condense my ideas, in order to communicate
with tiny minds.

 

Heaven help us if you ever comment a subject you DO know something about.
(You seem to know quite a lot about deviant sexuality tho, take a wrong turn
in google, did we????)

Hey, I didn't notice *you* trying to answer the lame question about M8
thread pitch on Hondas, all you seem to ever do is snipe at people
trying to help.

 

There is no try. Do, or do not.

Go find Yoda and fellate him.

*You* basically gave the lamer the same answer I did, i.e., *measure*
the frikkin' bolts he has available.

" Well, metric coarse M8 is 1.25, metric fine M8 is 1.0. I'd
expect
Honda to use fine on engine parts, but that's just an edjumificated
guess...
This is where calipers, thread gauges, or plain rulers cumin handy --
assuming
you've got a sample to test, of course."

 

Yes, and you snipped that out to make it seem as if yours was the only
such advice.

 

ESAD.

 

Have you ever thought of being *polite* and *reasonable* to people? I
mean, one reason why you get such a hammering is because you're so
unpleasant to*everyone*.

Ivan - one of the mildest-mannered bods in Creation, utterly superb
chap, cleverer than anyone I've met, and you throw obscenities at him in
reply to a sensible posting he made.

 

No, I will not buy your Ténéré -- it has a Gefücktealternatormaschin!

Ja, mein herr.

 

Nein! Nein! Keine sparken: das der bloody trouble vas.

Ich ver down der autobahn verriding und sudden der silenz und der
deadlichten and der totaller electrickenfailure.

Und der gemelted wiringbits, und der schmell of der cookedalternator.
Ja.

 

Oh yes, absolutely.

On a technical level, the bike was repairable, relatively easily. But I
absolutely *have* to be in London at 1530 local on 2 February, for one
of those potentially life-changing meetings. I'm sure you know what I
mean.

I could not spend four days in Deggendorf waiting for Yamaha spares. I
could not get the bike back, that distance, economically, on my own. And
the bike was dirt cheap.

Ergo: sell it for whatever you could and take a smaller financial hit.
There are *lots* of bikes out there.

 

And there are NO trucking companies in Germany and nobody knows how to
crate up a broken bike and ship it to you in Sutton for maybe 200
Euros...

Right...

 

Yes, I could have got it home. But it wasn't financially worthwhile. You
haven't thought this through - again. First, this was a weekend. No
chance of doing *anything* for another two nights. So I've got to stop
in Germany for two nights. More expense. Or I get home and arrange it
from London. Not so easy.

That's a firm quote, is it? Or a guess?

Storage charges - the bike's got to be kept somewhere. Transport of the
bike to a trucking company. Or collection.

Even if it could be done for 200 euros, that's still £200. Plus the cost
of repair in the UK. Not financially worthwhile. That starts loading the
cost of what was viewed as a disposable sub-$1000 motorcycle. There is
just no point in throwing money at something like that.

As it is, I cut my liability on the bike to a mere £500. I know that
unemployed lusers like you regard that as a fortune, but it's a sum I
can afford to lose. The alternative: load (easily) another $600 of
recovery and repair costs, plus amazing hassle, onto a sub-$1000 bike.

You really *are* stupid, aren't you?

And besides: my bike, and I can do what I want with it.

 

Of course it's a firm quote from him, given that he seems to be talking
out of his usual orifice.

I happen to know how much it costs to get a partial truck load from
Munich to London using a reliable trucking company, because I've done
that in the past. IIRC the minimum they charge would've been in the
order of half the value of the bike. This would include picking it up
and potential storing it at their premises for a short amount of time
but between that and potentially having to spend a day at home at very
short notice so the bike could be delivered, this is simply
uneconomical.

 

Quite. This is what I'm trying to beat into his skull

I'm irritated at losing what had been a good practical bike - who
wouldn't be? But it's bangernomics we're talking here. When a vehicle
regarded as disposable gives up the ghost, you jettison it and move on.

At least it got me *to* the Elefant )

At least you didn't shell out $50usd for a 2 year only
DR370...needs an exhaust fab'd from scratch, new clutch (it's beyond

Hey, you stupid ******, you don't have a *clue* as to what a brand
loyalty rally is all about.

On the *wrong* kind of bike, you *twat*. You needed to be riding a
restored 1957 Zundapp "green elephant" to be brand loyal, not some
modern *Yamaha* you won on an ebay auction.

But, that's what *always* happens to rallies of the True Believers.
They get discovered by the frat boys and suddenly they're in the
middle of "Burning Man" on top of a mountain in the Bavarian Alps,
instead of an annual pilgimage of the faithful.
