sorry I will shut the fug up 😳

I tried

clean the rims, clean the brake pads and check the toe in of the pads

it will be one of the 3

Bloody hell Shane you are a real style guru

are you the STW Gok Wan 😉

I broke my sub5 the main pivot broke out of the frame ( climbing out of a combe on the Q’s honest)

Bought the bike second hand Orange were not interested at all

Last orange purchase

Bonzo, beer, bikes, marmite!!!!!

Hint taken how much 😉

Sorry to pea on yer strawberrys but it looks like my “bastid” with a differant bezel

Still pleased with mine despite the strobe effect on low beam

sorry Cinnamon Girl but no Q’s for me 😥

My wife want’s to go on her bike to Dartmoor to do the Granite Trail 😀

So you can terrorize me at a later date 🙂

Ta for that troutie

btw hope your spelling is correct I darn’t try for the ridicule 😳

oh as opposed to current limiting, I did not realise they used PWM ( pulse width modulating ) drivers. Are all LEDS dimmed using pwm drivers???

mind what the hell did I expect for £50 there was bound to be a issue somewhere,

Main beam is brill though

I was out last night with my “Bastid” and on main / high beam it is superb better than my old HID

But the low beam has a bit of a potential issue in that it flashes I descovered this because as I was riding along the wheel appeared to be stationary with the stroboscopic effect, I did not like it at all and some folk who are sensative to flashing lights may have a real problem.

But 3 hrs on high will be more than enough riding time for me

email me and I will scan you a set of the overhaul instructions

Ah yes the balance has been restored 🙂

Shane you are getting realy good at these ride write ups all it needs is Knokkie pics to make em complete

” note to self get out”

ok buy a set of Bombers

own the feckers

i am trying not to get drawn into the dx lights as they are probably a cas eof buy cheap buy twice

some folk have had issues with hope and exposure leds sorry but the DX stuff aint bad I have 2 p7 torch’s and the “bastid” bike light and I am very happy

Still it’s your money at the end of the day

if you want we have a Britax one going cheap

addy in profile

QED did a cheap passive pot volume control

tbh I do quite like the “o” ring fitting on mine ( remember the old lumicycle set up with ty raps now that was pants)

infact I am well chuffed but the strobe mode is not a usefull idea and the charger is designed for american sockets but I got a adaptor from maplins for £1.99 so no issues there

Glad you hada good time but

CIDER devils juice no no no no NO

Yah I am off soon to my pad in Limousin about 10 miles from St Mathieu

There is alot of easy riding in the area with alot of waymarked trails but I have not realy had time to explore ( fuggin diy but I will get 2 hrs a day riding this time)

TJ I will have a look at Cussac and the Gorge du tarne ta for that

Give Stratobiker a shout from this forum he lives over there

duckers

read my previous post 😉 about 1/3 down this page

Dunno realy I have jumped a few times and at the end of the day the grass was never any greener

yep sorry I am bugger all help

this may help

think what im trying to get at, is your light looks f’ing ace compared to the ‘bastid’.

Yes I agree but with the “bastid” on my bars and a dinotte on my bonce I will be well sorted

To think not so long ago I was realy happy with the brightest lights going with my old HID which had almost half the lux output of a p7 tourch

Well I have just got my “bastid” light and i am mighty chuffed

I compared it to my P7 tourch and found the light output to be very differant, the mte ssc p7 tourch is a very white light, yet the Bastid is slightly er green as reported by others. But as a light on the lawn and trees it gave a more detailed light in that the grass and my trees seemed more 3D where as the p7 light just seems in comparison to “flatten things”

I will be in touch soon Mr T for your assembly mods

Bottom line I am well chuffed

if it is the old trance yes you need a top swing

Dunno about the new frames though

Me me me me me pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze

What about a Whyte

I hear the E120 is a “cracker” 😆

Just for the record I was on the jobseakers allowance at £62 a week that was not enough to fill my fuel tank to find a job, and to top it off I had to travel 15 miles to sign on every 2 weeks (no collecting at the post office) yep on me bike for me

But still I am a bloke who has worked all my life and paid tax’s for the last 31 years so why should I expect a bit of return for the bad times 🙄

Yet some young lass get’s up the duff and then gets the friggin lot 👿

Thank fug I got a job quite quickly

if they are honey bees they are protected by law

If I was local to you I would collect them myself

get in touch with the council they have a swarm control list or look on the net for your local bee keeping assosiation

Top day out thanks folks , unfortunatly I am aching alot now

Got home to find the wife went out on her bike (first time for over a year) and did 16 miles on the Tarka trail and loved it 😀 good girl top end to the day

This is going to be one hell of a summer

btw knottie where is the elephant seal pic?????

oh yea 😆

But I do have a thought on where to lay some of the blame

I am a child of the early 60’s and there was this bloke called Doctor Spock ( no bull) who started a revolution by saying that you should not slap etc children but you should reason with them!

Shame my old Pa didnt listen (Thanks Pops)

So now here I am pushing 50 and by rights I could easy be a granddad

So If I was brought up with no dicipline or pride,early 80’s I have a kid not knowing about disipline, now my kid has a kid in the late 90’s

What do we have the makings of this society we live in today

Hmmmmmmmmmm yep

Someone has stolen the Great out of Britan

I hear “heartland ” in my head by TheThe

btw well said rudeboy

MMMmmm! Amicable you say? I guess this has only just happened?

If that’s the case then wait for the fireworks……there aint no such thing as an ‘amicable’ divorce.

My advice – don’t be a numb-nutts like me – give her f all; she’ll hate you no matter what.

Read this thread in 18 months – 2years time and tell me it aint so.

Sorry hate to say but he is right still to this day I do not slag off my ex but she was real difficult after she left

at the mo cos its dry I use NN at the front (superb if fitted the right way round) and a RR at the back brill combo for the winter NN front and rear

As for being fragile yes they are but no worse than the kenda blue groove/ nevagal

Sorted the forks are now buttry soooooooooooooth

oops Anna

guess I have stiched you up

sorry

Divorce is the wrong name it is medically known as a

“wifectomy”
