Skip's having a baby. I didn't think you had it in you, Funny, nor did Mrs Skip. Are you going to call it Joey.

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Aparently he didn't , she did, that's how u make babys

Relaxing with some home made cider :) Just the job.

After my car flashed its warning lights and told me to turn the engine off I checked the coolant, and to my surprise it looked empty. So I got some anti-freeze to fill it up, only to find that its full! Why design a car where you can't see how much coolant or screenwash is in there unless its full?!

I think a dose of Bromide is in order for this over sexed thread. Bring on the warmer weather so you lot can go and get some proper riding done.

Sounds like you're all bored, and needing to release some pent up tension :rolleyes:

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Just cos you've spent the last couple of days shacked up in Liverpool with Miss April!! Now who needs the bromide:p?

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Jelousy will get you no where :rolleyes:

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

I'm not jealous, whilst the lovely Miss April is indeed very appealing, she hasn't got what i'm after ;).

The good news is that my little boy has finally stopped talking to God down the big white telephone and weather permitting im hoping to get out on the bike tomorrow or thursday, its in the garage wired up to its optimiser in eager anticipation :p:p:p It had a new rear tyre on a couple of days after christmas and i haven't even had chance to scrub it in yet :( Fingers crossed [-o<

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

I've got to prepare mine for its MOT... I really hope there's nothing major. Interestingly, the same fork seal they replaced last time needs doing again. And I need a clutch lever as I cut the end off mine not realising that's an MOT fail... Then there's the front brake disc, which could possibly be slightly warped. Eeek.

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

could be worse mines refusing to start hopefully its just a knackered battery, tried recharging it but still no working so i'm going to get a new one this weekend and hopefully it'll work. Plus i still need to fix my speedo think its the rotor but until then a tank bag with a sat nav in will do.

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Is there anyone near you who could lend you a battery just to try, it'd be expensive and a shame to replace it to find thats not the problem.



Note to SeanC: 2 non-smutty posts in a row, i'm on my very best behaviour :-)

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

battery needs placing anyway really so i might as well get a new one now and see if it fixes it. I'm not to bothered by the problem how hard can the electrics on a SV be compared to a fighter jet

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

I'm no prude, Kelly, it was just an observation ;)

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

I know :-)

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Was hoping to get some more done on the bike this week but I have something going on every evening right up to Saturday night - arrrrgh! :(

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

And the snows coming back :(

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

When is it due to snow?The forecast said maybe some rain today but dry tomorrow. I didnt get out this morning cos the little man's still off preschool but i will definitely be out tomorrow.

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Dunno just heard it on the news. I got out on the bike Sunday it did feel good

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Not snowing here in Brum.
It's just been raining all morning:(

The temperature is dropping quite quickly though so may have a freeze overnight on these nice wet roads...lovely...:rolleyes:

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Sundays looking dry enough for a ride!!

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

I've just been out, only done a 20 mile round trip but thats 20 miles more than ive done this last fortnight:p. Its dark and i was nervous for the first ten mins (cos im a numpty and was worrying about the new rubber) and its absolutely fffrrreeeezzzzing but the only bit of me that was cold was my face, assuming ive still got it cos i cant actually feel it :smt107

Is it socially acceptable for girls to wear balaclavas??? I need to google and find a red girlie one so i dont look totally like a bank robber!!

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

OMG I just looked at ebay and this is what i found, which look do you think i should go for?

Attachment 6010Attachment 6011

The first would appear to offer more support and protection, whilst the second offers more freedom.......decisions, decisions!!

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Freeeeeeedom :)

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Well ordered a battery and pick it up on friday so hopefully that'll be the only problem with the electrics really can't be bothered with messing about with wires on my bike at the weekend after doing it all week at work...

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Jeff and i managed to get out for a bit today, twas great, roads were nice and dry although definitely lots of new potholes, at least it puts my mod1 cone swerving training to good use!!

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Glad to hear you got out - I made a start taking my bike to bits last night - need an impact drive to get the bar end off though - something I don't have :rolleyes:

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

I do, really useful too

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Ahhh nearly friday :) Although I'm thoroughly enjoying work, I still cant wait for the weekend ;)

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

I was out and about last weekend and what made me really smile was the kids in the high streets. "Daddy daddy, look a motorbike". Another kid give me the thumbs up so I waved back as I passed. The other thing I've not realised I missed was bikers acknowledging each other. Every bike I saw give me a nod or a wave as it passed. It was so great to go somewhere and not be in the car. :D

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

....and promptly fell off

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Heheheh.

Looks like it wont be raining this weekend so i might go out on mine :)

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

I might too, probably sunday if the weathers ok still

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Hehehe it did feel like that at times since I'd not been out on it in over 2 weeks. :D

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

No off roading then Scott? :smt005

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Funny you should mention that because at work we have moved factory's to one that's got a long, dirt style farm track. So next time I go to work on the bike I'll be able to get my off roading fix. ;)

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Thats so you slow down and they can car/bike jack you

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

We're aiming to get out saturday but my confidence has suffered a bit having done so few miles over the last couple of months, i was just finally getting the hang of it oct/nov time when everything went pear shaped and the bike came to rest in the garage.

I really wish i could be like Jeff (and probably you guys). He was back in the saddle for the first time in over two months today and you'd think he' never got off, whilst ive reverted back to how i was on the hunny trip, riding like a total numpty. I guess the only way to get it back is to clock up as many miles as poss....... oh well, lifes a b1tch :D

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

at least your bikes working at the moment

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Fingers crossed the battery does the trick and you're back out raising hell soon!!

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

hopefully, haven't been out for a while now, would be really nice just to hear it run. Theres a few other things i want to do to it but nothing to major. Hopefully by the end of the weekend i'll either be out on it or i'll know whats wrong with it and will be in the process of putting it right.

Re: 'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread
 

Don't worry Kelly, just get out there and enjoy it :)
