  1. Unlike most other bikes, the cranks on the big BMWs are extremely solid and failures or wear are very rare, same with most mechanical items. It means dirt cheap parts second hand, a friend is replacing his K1200 crank- previous owner failed to service it. The crank in perfect condition only $150 from a wrecked bike. Try finding a jap bike crank or Harley one for that price. Even better, you can remove the crank with the engine in place and box still attached, takes 30 mins to remove. Crank is driving a gear to the flywheel, just remove sump and unbolt the mains. New bearings, for crank and seals, total job under $500.
  2. Over the past 10 years the old bike market has changed greatly. The most sought after bikes for actual use and still able to handle daily duties and modern traffic are the big euro bikes. The BMW twins and K series fours are popping everywhere with full restorations, original recomissioned and retro modded. They are highly prized, easy to work on and suit today's heavy policing regime. Plus parts are available new from factory.
  3. Yes, much higher when Sun and moon are on same side. It's called a king tide.
  4. meanwhile... Poorline the battlers pollie and Barnyard are on the worlds richest cruiseship for billionares, and claim it on expenses. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/may/28/pauline-hanson-barnaby-joyce-one-nation-bill-taxpayers-flights-private-events-gina-rinehart-ntwnfb
  5. True, But the average idiot watches channel 7,9,10 and sky
  6. The last census showed approx 1 million homes unoccupied on census night. That shows a lack of homes is not the issue but house hoarding. A clear case of a broken and unethical taxation regime.
  7. All bullshit to scare about making trusts not dodge tax.
  8. Which means you have all the gear to build that rat bike
  9. I am sure it will quickly bounce back.
  10. Yes, I would love to slap, slap, slap Barnaby.
  11. Bugger that...I have a rainbow to sell the daft bloke
  12. You too can have a politician just donate a new Cirrus G7.
  13. Oh Brendan, given your comments I think you definately are 'special'.
  14. Been windy in Port Stephens last 5 days, no rain
  15. Cause he is a tosser
  16. Agent Provocateur Litespeed at your service. Clandestine operations by appointment.
  17. I never ever use ethanol fuel in my motorbikes and especially in boat motors. For a boat its critical the fuel is good and and it runs at the right combustion temps. A failure can prove deadly, my marine rescue mates swear a lot of failures are from E10 use.
  18. And what happens when one side has beaten the others drones? Unless the winning side is virtous and that doubtful they might then unlease the drones on the undefended population and kill at will. Drones are been used to kill civillians as we speak.
  19. As a former Prime minister he gets the perks of a office, staff and lots of travel including international.
  20. So did our feral monk Tony Abbott, spent lots of our money travelling there to promote him.
  21. Are you suggesting the Bondi terror suspect is out free? That's bullshit
  22. No, Barron has bone spurs
  23. Whilst that might be technically true- The very senior ex police officer I was watching the footage with, was very clear, the normal procedure is cuffs esp for such a serious offence. The kidd gloves were defineatly used. People submit to arrest all the time, that does not mean they have no risk of trying to escape or hurt themselves or others. I had nothing to do with USA shows, but her long career in the NSW Force.
  24. Labor is not proposing taxing the family home, thats just bullshit pushback from the right wing media. Just a scare campaign to confuse the punters.
