Your garage is going to look like Wallace and Grommits place……..!

Why not just go out and ride your bike…… cooling breezes for free……. 😉

If you write a cat-sized sign, informing them that the laced cat food contains cinnamon, then it would technically be classed as suicide…….

Happy Now?

I feel sorry for the kid………

On a budget build (and on most other builds for that matter) I would settle for scraping/filing the paint off the BB faces. Some wet and dry wrapped around a file will clean off the paint, which could otherwise be squashed and crack causing the BB to come loose or move around.
BB facing tools in my opinion are rarely as good as the guy using them, and this compared to the CNC machine that would have machined and threaded the BB interfaces to begin with, chances are you'll only make any misalignment worse. Waste of time and money.

Any slight misalignment in the BB interfaces/threads will be easily accomodated within the BB bearings and axle tolerances.

Remember, it's only a bicycle, not a jet engine or a swiss watch!

As yer man said…. plastic bottles with water in them, or I think CD's hanging in the shrubs might do it too……
If you want death to the little jiggers, place some cat food laced with cinnamon….. Cats can't handle cinnamon and they die……….

Didn't hear it from me ok…..

Is the SV650 very similar to the Hyosung 650? I have a few Hyosungs for sale and they are much cheaper than the Suzuki, but look similar, frame and engine-wise. I might buy one for the missus who wants to take her test, and even if she never gets round to it… then I can take her for a spin on the back.

I tested the BMW 800 GS last year and that was great….. it all depends on what you want to do with it really…

Nice pictures boys….

I recognise that MG metro 6R4. E264 AAM Sam Nelsons old car, I built it from the ground up, drove it a few times….. David Appleby is driving it in that picture….. A blast from the past, I wonder where she is now?

Lancia Delta Integrale…. did somebody say a “a little too practical”? I had one of those and it was falling apart all time, absolutely the most fun I have had on 4 wheels….. totally bonkers….. just seeing one makes my kidneys hurt, they generate some pretty wild cornering grip…. sold it before I killed myself or someone else!

Renault Alpines are just gorgeous aren’t they……….

And everyone should own a VW camper Van at some stage in their life……
