I think mine is the PJ1 - comes out liquidy and then drys and is a nice white colour.
Tip just incase you dont know is spray when the chain is warm after a ride which helps it stay liquid for longer, and spray the bottom inside run which helps any fling to fling into the links.

Back in the 80s on my Suzuki GP125 you could get a biscuit tin size tin with hard waxoil in it that you heated over a camping stove to liquid and take off your chain an lay in it, swish it about fot a while and take out and let set

The last time I ever changed the oil in the car myself I stored the old oil in its bowl down by the side of sharp towers southern wing where it would be safe until I could dispose of it. And then forgot it was there and trod on the end of the bowl flipping the black contents over me and the surrounding slabs and wall. Ever since then I have took it to a local garage for just an oil change

Whats that in the middle of your fairing just above the box lights, it even has a cut out for it, some kind of weird aftermarket thing ?

In my experience of kit especially diy around sharp hall and the surrounding grounds in the the past when I could do with a bit of kit for a "one off job" I have bodged it not wanting to fork out and buy stuff for one thing but then a year or so later I find that I need it again--- then bodge it again then finally on the 3rd time of needing the kit I have gone and brought it. Now if I had brought it straight away then I would of got far better use/value out of it from the off.
So now whenever I need a bit of kit to enable me to do a job properly I just buy it straightaway

Make sure that you have lots of cleaning rags at hand because you will find so much gunk you wont even see the tab in the cover

Cars with those stupid HID bulbs so bright white light its like daylight.
The other night I was traveling in my car down a country lane I did not know with lots of humps and hollows and bends- I get this git in a merc behind me right up my arse with lights so bight they were casting a black shadow of my car in front of me and everything else each side of this shadow was bright white it was like driving into a hole, I had to slow right down to 20 mph which made him get even closer which made it get even worse which ment I had to go even slower, there wasnt even a good spot for me to let him pass.

The standard mirrors serve their purpose,

Already on your mk 1 boxeye half the view is your elbows anyway so if you go smaller then the whole view will be your elbows

That reminds me last year I came around a very nice bend to see two of those idoits standing in the middle of the road and they would not move- I ended up going around them

Looks to me like it was a half hearted weak attempt to pull the bike up when it wasn't levelled first, when the bike drops down it's more on the left side of the stand, so as it goes down the momentum pulls the bike away from him.
Silly, but shit happens.  :\
Yep I would go with that. I always make sure that both stand feet are flat square on the floor before pushing down with foot and lifting up from the back of the bike at the same time

I don't think its placed in the perfect sweet spot I think it could be easier to put on but i suppose its in the only place it could go

I have a buzzing but can only hear it when the bike is not moving at about 3-4k revs  and have tried touching different parts but cant find it, although im not that bothered as I cant hear it when riding - helmet on, earplugs in - wind blast and the needle doesn't spend long at 3-4k   ;)

I am giving him 6 months notice to vacate the property as I intend to return to the UK in January, health reasons (my arse)


I thought that you as the landlord only need give 2 months notice.
Funny how he was happy and content - was paying low rent then along comes this woman gives him grief and then gives you grief.
This grief you are getting now will not end with new white goods and a boiler it will be on going about every little thing you are best shot of them.

The intent is there clearly

Just noticed your post was also a link

"A spokesman said: ‘It does not look like a police uniform." ---- Fazersharp says "yes it fecking does"

"The makers admit there is little difference between the chequered strip on the bib and blue-and-white crosshatching used by police."----- EXACTLY

Ok so I see how it may be of benefit but I also see an issue when a load of twats in an astra pull up next to you and take umbridge that they have been fooled into thinking you were a copper

Still with horses has anyone else noticed that if you meet someone for the 1st time they will make sure you know they have a horse within 2 mins of talking. Lets say you went for a hair cut and you say its a bit nippy today and they say "oh yes i had to put an extra blanket on my horse"  errrrrhhh !

And another thing when im shopping in sainsburys (cause im posh) there will always be -- and its always girls --- what is it with girls and horses, there will  be someone in their jodhpers and riding boots with shit on them while im buying FOOD, its not even like they have parked their horse outside -- get fecking changed before you go food shopping, its just another "look at me I have got a horse" 
We should eat more horse in this country.

Yes I am a smart arse and how dare you say I am not.
Kids are old enough to have there own now but I never did have one.
We did have in our old house a sticker in the kids bedroom window which was something like "rescue baby in here " with a logo of a fire man which was why I thought the baby on board was to alert the rescue services

I thought that baby on board was in the case of an accident the services would then be alerted that there still could be a baby somewhere in the wreckage safe and sound hopefully the small person -in a small place.

Which reminds me of a get my goat which will be my next post
