Hibernating birds??....

#1 Post by SimonDk » Mon Nov 26, 2012 5:31 pm

As if the weather actually knew the calendar, the forecast here is for frosty, snowy conditions in a few days time. And salt on the roads accompanies.. So time to park the bike (snif), this year my sister and b-in-law's shed is to be home until spring. Just got in the last 120 km outing in mild, partly sunny conditions.

The bolts holding the front of the tank is at the bottom of the eylets, so I might drain the tank and let it vent during the winter - to see if it shrinks as the ethanol dries away?!

Sleep well, papa bear!

There may well be a hat in that photo


Very good work agent simon


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Ah yes, the hat.

I had a hat.
I left it at Mallory Park.
Aladdin kidnapped it.
Since then it has been travelling.

They find this amusing. :smt009
I make farty noises in their general direction.

you have been drinking hero juice again?

and we all know that girlies cannot fart - they can't keep their mouths closed for long enough to build up the pressure

There's an RFID chip in it, which the hitman is using to track it.

I've said too much. :smt120
