The thing from the swamp

You have to be fucking joking, I am not paying that for some half arsed rubbish

Doing a deal if i sell a bike I get a Jawa 890 engine the same as this, I have a wideline featherbed frame to put it in, my ADHD is going through the roof at the moment, i am trying to buy a bsa engine to

I saw photos one year you had to have your leathers and helmet on to even watch the racing it was so windy and cold with sand being blown like a sand blaster

How much dose it cost for a days racing at Hampton downs? I would like some kind of go round the track 1st or should I just jump in the deep end?

That Marsh motorsport guy was telling me you can get an engine to make a certain amount of power but then its like 20k per HP after that

Want

The TF absolutely rips, I had to drill the main jet and got the top end good but its lean in the mid range, I started to work on sanding the needle but may have gone too far on it.

I had the early AG175 and the motor was rusted up and I put the later radial fin 175 motor in it, all the gears are up and if you click it all the way down its neutral,

Before you even attempt this job you must put the chamber in the fire with the compressor blowing air through it for an hour or so to burn out all the oil, then to remove the mesh use a die grinder with a carbide bur , this is a hard job but worth it

My god there was alot of work in that exhaust, I ground off all the stupid brackets on the frame and I have a 1980 RM125 tank on the way and now I have a poverty spec MX bike

I screwed that run up, I had the oil wound up a bit high and the clutch was dragging and I stalled just off the line.

I should cut the back out of those Briggs&Stratton leathers and get it stitched onto a vest 

I put them almost on and then they caused me to have a panic attack because I got stuck

Have you seen the price the SS sell for on yahoo japan now. They are very undervalued in NZ compared with other countries.

Most of the old Japanese bikes are cheaper in nz but in Japan they only like super mint ones

I use to scrap ss frames and get $27 each, terrible

Something that will work with out the use of a cellphone or cellphone cover, I use to use my old UHF walkie-talkies with the VOX sustem and a head set but one of them has been ground into the road a bit

Has anyone come across intercoms that are not bluetooth and work like the old ones?
