No drugs, no shortcuts. A lot gym hours and putting the fork down. how does that compare to the dribble you just posted
-
that was about superbirds friend. you on the other hand for whatever reason known only to yourself ,chose to get offended instead of being happy for your friend who made a big improvement to his health. you actually started off being happy for him but then you pulled the im offended card.
-
the fact that the person who has been broke all his life chose to get angry instead of considering the advice shared to him explains why he has been broke all his life and will stay broke. not everyone can communicate with the tact ,diplomacy that someone in lets say a management position has been trained to do. maybe we are just thicker skinned here in aus

how else will capitalism work if profits can't be maximised -
ive never had one fail yet but i have had the neutral switch fail a few times as well as the clutch switch.
-
possibly the kill switch,as xxitanium says . are you trying to start it with the bike on the centre stand with the sidestand up. is it in gear and side stand down,is it in neutral and sidestand down but neutral light not on .if so its a faulty neutral switch . Just checked on my 99 model with bike in gear and sidestand down.the fuel pump still cycles .

40 psi.sport touring tyres have come a long way since buying my first blackbird.the bridgestones i used to run,i think they were bt 020 were kaput by around 10,000klms
-
the road 6's i had on my blackbird ,rear i replaced at 24'000klms and front was about 33'000 klms.the handling had gone off a few thousand klms before i replaced them but tread was still legal. speeds on open roads i would be doing between 100kph and 140 kph with occasional higher speeds.speed cameras everwhere in aus now. my bike is my everyday transport so lots of accelerating from lights to get way in front of cars,and if a bike happens to pull up next to me it becomes a race here the centres wear out first but in europe the centres are like new and the sides become like slicks within around 15'000 klms.

Motorcycle oil thread, because it's been too long.
poida replied to superhawk996's topic in The Garage
i saw similar here in aus with castrol oil.reading the description they were the same oil but different looking stickers with a $25 price difference -
bmw have only been making drive shafts for motorcycles since 1923.they need to ask the japanese manufacturers how to make them reliable in the modern world . at least with drive chains i can monitor what it going on with the drive line rather than have a drive shaft fail in the middle of nowhere

yep. had the rear replaced nearly a year ago just before i headed over the other side of aus.just checked my records,the rear had about 23000klms on it and still not quite at the wear bar but not knowing how quick the last bit of tread would last i replaced it before heading across the nullabor. the front i replaced in melbourne with probably close to 28000klms on it.the last thousand or so klms the handling was starting to go off. the front now has just over 23000klms on it and still feels good . the shop put the road 6 gt on the rear for my trip over east which i just replaced on friday with 28450klms on it.still not at the wear bars but the handling had gone off.i had the normal road 6 fitted again as i prefer the feel of it when cornering. the road 6 are pricey but fuck they last and they grip.
-
Im impressed with the michelin road 6.i get 24000klms out of rear and 27000 out of front.

i have looked at partzilla previously but once you take into account the exchange rate and shipping it is about the same price as buying in aus. many years ago i was buying parts from superbike toystore in florida and chains and sprockets from the sprocket centre.our exchange rate was a lot better and postage was cheap.
-
depends if he is a good cunt or a right cunt.fuckin spic ? get a dog up ya, ya cunt

im in West aus so a lot of my parts i get online. chain and sprockets i have been buying from RPM MOTO in Queensland.i wait for them to have their sales and can get chain and sprockets delivered for less than just a chain in WA. Lately i have been buying oem parts from WEBIKE JAPAN.our exchange rate has been good at the moment.just keep an eye on postage costs.i order enough spares /consumables to keep it under the next step up in postage rates. i have ordered a stator,air and oil filters and neutral and clutch switches most of them at half price in comparison to Australia.delivery takes about a week. I have also ordered from BLUE City Motorcycles in Sth Aus.Postage from them has usually been around $7. EBC brake pads i get from the UK.works out around $70 per set delivered.just keep an eye on the exchange rate. I know a few people order from JAWS Motorcycles in the UK as well but i havent as yet.

this is part of an article from 2021. A recipe for ageing well The lifestyle ingredients of longevity are so routinely effective as to feel almost predictive of long life. Could there be a "recipe" for successful ageing? Regions around the world known as "blue zones" — where the populations have unusually high numbers of centenarians – offer clues. The islands of Sardinia in Italy, Ikaria in Greece and Okinawa in Japan as well as Costa Rica's Nicoya Peninsula and California's community of Seventh Day Adventists in Loma Linda make up five zones where residents outlive the rest of the world. Researchers have also distilled nine traits of these communities that are credited with underpinning each community's health. They include: Regular physical activity that is a part of the lifestyle like walking to the shops rather than using a vehicle. Having something meaningful that motivates you to get up every day. Rhythms and rituals that reduce stress. In Okinawa the women enjoy tea ceremonies, the Loma Linda religious community has prayer groups and in Italy and Greece the siesta fills the stress release gap. A healthy plant-based diet, that's also low in meat, fish and dairy. Not just a healthy diet, but eating patterns that favour being 80 per cent full, or "hara hachi bu" as Confucious used to teach. It's a philosophy that's been taken up by the Western wellness culture's 5:2 or 16:8 diet trends Blue zone cultures love a drink – but in very moderate amounts. Engaging in social groups that are focused around healthy activities. Religion is good for long life – perhaps because it encourages social connections and rituals offer a stress-reducing dimension. Maintaining close relationships between family members

Clearing XX Parts, mostly Free Plus Shipping

many years ago i needed that hose for my 99 mdl.shop had to get it from japan so in the meantime i took the old hose with me to a car parts shop.i found a radiator hose from i think it was a datsun 120y that had the bends in the correct place.i just had to cut the ends down and it fitted perfectly. -
nailed it.replaced the thermostat today and it is now running much cooler and cools down quicker after taking off from traffic lights. tested the old one in a pot of water on the stove and at full boil it only opened a few mm ( or poofteenth of an inch).
