83 CR500, here begineth the lesson

Sure is. Spanish in boxes as too close to payday for a good Murray hills number. Will be building bikes and drinking Aussie wine for some sunshine during a looonnng winter.

You are right though. It's getting a little chilli over here at this time of year !

I keep reading this post in the hope that you have got the bl**dy thing going.

Ha, I know what you mean ! I keep writing it for the same reason, its only days away, just like this time last month !

You took that in the mood it was intended.
Brilliant.


Later when you have sold your sense of humor to fund the broken leg it might be different.

This year, next.... whatever, plenty of plonk to sooth the ravages of time. the queensland adage come to mind. dont put off to tomorrow, what you can put off too next week!

It's been a week since I gave my kickstart gear to a specialist to get some oilways drilled. Specialist fuckwit hadn't touched it so re-patriated and shrunk in the ally bronze bush with a little LN2, attacked it with a dremel/needle file and reamer. Job done and now un-believers ....Nothing can stop me from starting the beast! Well, Monday anyway, busy weekend, and then really there is no reason why it won't run No broken legs just smoke and ring a ding ding ding. We'll see Mr Dukkman !

Smooth work oh great mechanical one. nice job. looking forward to the "start" report..!
i will burn a goat at the alter (no v@rgins or wise men around here!) and refit my shockers to assist your quest for noise and smoke!
Good Luck and may the force be with you

With that help I can't fail ! Especially if the shocks go back on. 12.00 GMT which means midnight to you I guess? I may have mentioned, I stopped by Bendigo a year or two ago, you right no virgins but a reasonable pie shop !

we are good to go then! kick for all your worth!!!

May the force be with you ...........
Waiting ... waiting ....

Should fire first kick if you talk to it nice

Nice.

I saw another one the other day.
" Hard work never killed anyone but why take the risk "

Sorry dukkman, i did a couple of months work (i use the term loosely) at Wayne (magic cycle) Leonard's in Cairns. So yes it is a Queensland adage....I just borrow it now!

All together and starting 'the thing' in the morning !! Nothing can go wrong.
And as adages go, one from the late Spike Milligan....
"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all the people some of the time. Which is just long enough to be President of the United States."

Kick it , Kick it good , na na na na.

Oh hang on
It goes
Whip it
Whip it good.
Na na na na

Wrong song.

"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all the people some of the time. Which is just long enough to be President of the United States."

It's all relevant to the level of gullability Joe !
That quote could also apply this side of the pond !
But how true

I like Spikes Headstone..."I told you I was ill"

Well it started !! It would have been recorded if the memory card had been in the camera. But, would it start again? Would it f u c k !
Good spark, stripped the carb and all looks ok. The fuel I drained looked manky though so in the morning its fresh fuel and plug.
The thing is resting under its blanket with its reed blocks out for the night so it can breathe. The sound and smell made me all un-necassary, brought back memories both good and bad of two strokes I have known !

How long did it run, just a burp, or minutes? How many kicks before first fire?
