  1. Problem sorted. Fired her up when I got home from work and she purred like a kitten until she warmed up. Then, same problem. Turns out she was overheating. The oil was black and had the viscosity of water. I changed the oil and took her out for a spin. She ran a bit lumpy to start but soon settled down and I was out for nearly an hour with no sign of the problem. I've only had the bike for a month and was told it had been serviced shortly before I bought it. I guess the service didn't include an oil change. I plan to change the oil again in the near future because I didn't change the filter tonight but, for now, I have my bike back. Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk

    Carb problem?

    My 1992 XV750 will run OK with the petrol tap turned off, but as soon as I turn the fuel on it dies. Anyone have a suggestion what might be causing this? Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk
  3. The Corsa driver who drove up the dual carriageway in the right hand lane then, when the road split into three lanes for a roundabout, crossed two lanes to turn left without looking or signalling. Thank you for testing my brakes and those of the other road users you nearly killed you complete F**kwit
  4. If you put it in there you'll get it burned

  6. That was going to be my advice. I took my divvy 900 out the other day and this exact thing happened. Sat there cursing the bike for a few minutes then realised I'd left the choke on. Sat there cursing myself for a few minutes, switched the choke to off and carried on my ride [emoji16]
  7. Very nice. Many miles of fun to come.
  8. "I'm sorry Mickey." said the Judge. "I can't give you a divorce just because Minnie has large front teeth, after all she is a mouse". "I didn't say she had big teeth," Mickey replied. " I said she was f***ing Goofy"
  9. I've been in a couple of bands many years ago. I played rock on a strat back then. I only play rhythm though, don't want to make it cry or sing. My ex wife has most of my guitars in her attic all I have with me is the Eko Ranger . No room for the other five where I'm living at the mo. I still play some (acoustic) rock as well as country and other stuff. But I only play for my own amusement these days.
  10. Massive well done. Now you need to get out and get some more experience. And remember, smile, you're supposed to be enjoying this.
  11. Congratulations. Hope Mum & little man are doing OK.
  12. I bet he gets all the bitches
  13. His mates could have helped, rotten B***ards. After a suitable amount of p*ss taking of course.
