How old? My next door neighbour has a black 1976 Mark IV. Totally restored and it's a ****ing sexy car.

Mine is not that cool......it`s a `94. I had a friend who had a white `76 and is was slick....a great cruising machine!

Nothing ;) my two best mates are mechanics and so's one of my brothers :D.

still trying to get my license (for a while i was afraid to drive), im most likely gonna be driving my moms truck until i get one on my own

Got a brand spanker exhaust center section for 13 quid today. Awesome.

What is 1 quid in relation to US dollars?

Except mines a dark blue.

Bet thats greeat in bad weather. I have been riding my Vstar in the snow and whatnot and its not been easy. Got lotsa salt and **** in brake lines and need to redo them :(

Glad I ain't gotta worry about snow or salty roads down here. Not to bad in the weather, only had a problom when there's a 15+mph cross wind, gets to swervin a lil bit. Think that's because it's so tall even for 370lbs. Hell as far as terrain though, I've had it mudding, in the sand (she don't like sugar sand too much though, bit noseheavy), all kinds of dirtroads. I just gotta take is easy in some places because my suspension is dialed out soft for better highway rides.

Your Vstar your daily driver?

Eh? Why would you want super skinny tires for winter? Larger tires = more surface area on the ground, that is more grip. Or am I completely missing something?

I think she meant low profile tires? They have them for winter too.

Are you two being serious? Low profile tyres are probably the worst tyres ever in snow. No exaggeration, skinny tyres cut through the snow easily. I can't believe a canadian just said that :laughing:

Getting a Grip on Winter Tires - MSN Autos

Haha! I said that because I thought that's what you were talking about. I know that low profiles are absolute **** in the snow, there is hardly any tread on them! Right now I just have regular snow tires on my car. I save the low profiles for the other three seasons.

Sadly yes. I used to own a car but it got to expensive and I sold it for junk. The bikes great most of the year just winters are a pain. Not to mention its aged like 10 years this winter.

Btw rezz, 13 quid here is $20.45 over there.

Edit: bikes are awesome. I'd have one in a heartbeat if I didn't need to sit a bike test. Dirt bikes on the otherhand, there was about 3 at one point in my back garden and one in the shed :D

Same here, truck got too expensive between fuel and insurance. Traded it at a Harley dealer for my KLR. Fun part is I only paid $500 for my truck but I traded it for $1500 against a $2100 bike :laughing: That was pretty cool, even told the salesguy the truth of it once the deal was final and I was loading up. The real punchline though, he had to buy my truck because the wholesaler they work with didn't want it :rofl: So he paid $1000 outta HIS pocket for MY bike. Oh AND he used to be a cop-so I got a two for one, screwed a cop and a salesman at the same time!

This is only my second bike. I've had fourwheelers and buggies galore but only two bikes, a KX and this KLR. I went from 150cc to 650cc lol I like doin 100+mph almost enough to want a streetbike but I love passing in the ditch at 60-80 even more-and making a U-turn within a lane.

Thats crazy you got real lucky their. Usually trade ins at harley dealers just screw you over.



nd wow the American dollar really sucks. I will not be moving out of the country any time soon.

My brothers had a KX, and a KTM. His most recent was one of the ones with the dipped down seats so you need to stand, never been on one of those.

Birtbikes are fun, but dangerous as hell. I loved my KX (even though it was a turd) but I wiped out almost every time I went riding lol I'm a learn by trial sorta guy.

I want(:

My cars getting fixed tomorrow, £40 for a ****ty hours labour. Plus I tapped an extra tenner off my dad for petrol and he's paying the labour so I'll owe him half my money next week :( waaaah.

I feel like if I was in Scotland I would understand nothing. Your slang is so much different then here in the states. Hell its hard to understand some people in my own country sometimes, between the deep south and northeast. If I hadnt lived in both places I wouldnt get anything they were saying!

tapped is slang. I borrowed a bill of ten pounds sterling ;).

you would get on fine here I swear! I can talk easier without saying "what" every 5 seconds to Americans better than the English. :)

Not in Pittsburgh you couldnt. Pittsburghese is a very hard thing to understand. Took me 9 years here to understand the bastards. Hell I understand the guys I work with that only speak swaheli better.

"turd"
"wiped out"

That is all.

My mind. Haven't got a car yet.

Haha swaheli, I've never heard a pittsburgh accent but I'm sure it'd be the equavilent to me talking to the scouse, they are murder. I had a scouse holiday rep once and I'm pretty much sure I said yes to everything he said because I couldn't understand him :laughing:

100 zamoles a man and you've got a deal.

I feel like I should know what you mean but I have no idea..?


Me
:stupid:

It's okay. It's a George of the Jungle quote.






Yeah.
