Re: Gerald has been to stay.
Nothing to eat in the garage, unless you like chewing on iron. I got the tank off this afternoon, they were in the had dragged some crap in there and chewed the element but hadn't made it to the basement. Better pull the carbs off and clean them while I have the tank off. https://i.postimg.cc/DSj0XY...

Re: Gerald has been to stay.
It's kept outside. I have mice in my garage, trying to keep them out is pointless as it's well ventilated; but they don't bother me so I don't bother them and have never tried getting rid of them. Mouse in the garage better than mouse in the house sorta thing. But mouses living on the jap bike is a ...

Re: Gerald has been to stay.
Wasn't to sure what that meant. Assumed it was a user, but maybe a little google might show it was some wondrous mouse repellent. Seems it's a cannabis strain with mention of smells that mouses don't like, I am just reading the google search results. so I have to sit under the cover and smoke some m...

Gerald has been to stay.
A mouse who hasn’t got a house, has carped all over my VTR.
He’s not a very nice mouse, I don’t know why I call him Gerald.

part number for Honda manual?
I wondered if anyone knew the part number for the manual.
Fancied a paper manual.
I know Suzuki manuals are listed on the bike microfiche, I assumed Honda
manuals were but can’t find them on on line parts thingies?
Maybe I need aVTR microfich!

Re: Old man eyes
Does anyone want five pairs of -2.5x and five pairs of -4.0x glasses? I rather stupidly bought - instead of +, I didn't have my glasses you see[I clearly didn't] When I first started to wear specs I think the quickest I broke a pair was a few seconds: put a new pair on, looked at a rule, put the gla...

Re: embarrassing?
Fuel light came on when I rode it around the block on the day I got it and I filled
it up. The light came on as I turned into the drive today.

Re: Anybody have experience of working with titanium....?
Thanks for looking.
I had a look online and couldn’t seen any thicker wall than 16swg.
I really wanted around 12swg maybe 14swg.

Re: Keep the winter rust at bay with ACF-50!
I was’t impressed by it.
It didn’t seem as good as way oil on steel measuring gear.
The wax based ambersil, ensis or rustilo are far better.

Re: Anybody have experience of working with titanium....?
Carbon fibre, you can get a kit and make a mould for pennies. It's come down a lot since I made anything then, resin ~ 20 quid a kilo and fabric ~ 30 quid a metre. You can get fabric much cheaper by contacting a mill that weaves it and buying parts of damaged rolls. The worst bit is the time taken ...
