On the Tarlton plotte I lived next door to a Professor in Electrical Engineering who was building a new house After the roof structure, trusses and brandering, was in place he carefully measured the spacing of the brandering, accordingly marked the IBR sheeting and drilled all the holes, four...

Reading this from Marques: “It’s true and I always say, for me, it's no meaning to ride a bike or to be here a lot of years without fighting at least for the top five, top seven positions. Because then as a rider, I don't have fun,” replied Marquez. “Some riders have fun fighting for the back...

I gaught my thumb in a card door resulting in a throbbing blue nail. As usual I fitted an 1 mm drill bit to the bench drill to just drill though the nail and get a pressure release. I was being very careful when my Bouvier des Flanders took an interest and stood up against my arm, causing me...

Interesting post in the Xtrac Champions page 2022 Moto GP - Riders, Team & Constructors It seems that various MotoGP manufacturers have been using Xtrac gearboxes. https://www.xtrac.com/about/champions/

I am with a broker and decided to try VirSeker for a 76 Cruiser, VW Polo and 2x GS 1200s. I was stunned by the VirSeker rates and quickly became very happy with my broker's pricing.

Indeed, Honda in WSBK have i4 engines, in MOTOGP has V4 engines, neither of these bikes are performing well, irrespective of the series, National or International, that they compete in.

I find it very interesting that in the country championships the Yamaha and BMW is right up there with the Ducatis. As in MOTOGP the WSBK Hondas are nowhere, does this prove that you can build a V4 that is as bad as an inline 4?

The British Superbikes has the usual suspects except that the BMW almost shapes In the American championships Kawasaki is struggling but Suzuki is hanging in there

What a symphony!! Explains the three tuning forks on the tank!!

Interesting how ze Germans, Volkswagen group, added some polish and reliability to both Lamborghini and Ducati. In the DTM you have Porsche racing against Lamborghini and the Audi R8, a reskinned Lamborghini, all products of the Volkswagen Group.

Interesting that costs could be defining. Yamaha has raised the same issue in WSBK, using the example of Ducati that sells at €45500 versus the R1 that sells at some €17500. There has been calls to go back to racing road bikes versus using special, race engineered, bikes in WSBK.

I believe that money talks and that Toprak's move to BMW opened the way for Rea to secure a comfortable pension. Why would Toprak leave Yamaha for yet another four in line engine, the one lap wonder, lower midfield, BMW team? (This exclude the lack of race performance from Redding, whose mouth...

A mate of mine had the Datsun Skyline 2.8 GTX automatic, his personal treasure unto which no end of buffing, polishing and preventative maintenance was lavished. One of this religious sacrifices was the Saturday service to execute a deep cleaning and polishing, attending to the exterior...

13mm should be way to small to fit your nuts!!

Still available?? If so I am interested

I had just completed a rebuild on a 1750 Alfa Romeo engine and was running it without the airfilter, attending to balancing the two sidedraught Weber 40DCOE carbs. I revved the engine and noticed that the idling speed was too high. I reached for a screwdriver, not noting the 6mm nut stuck to...

A suggestion as my son and I did much of your route, starting with a trip up the eastern side of Bots to Kasane. In my experience it is easier, cheaper and safer to leave your bikes in Bots and take a day trip to Vic Falls. Nam does not have multiple entry allowances so if you enter the...
