  1. Very clever. nev
  2. They are IN it for the Money. (and Donny's EGO.) That stands out like dogs balls. Nev
  3. There's a fair bit to know about setting up sidecars properly, and having a high centre of gravity makes them doubly dangerous. Like with a trike it's better to keep Mass near the ground. Having suspension can make it very " leany" when turning. and the front forks "trail" can make the steering heavy . Usually the sidecar is sprung in relation to it's chassis at least and some Movement between the side car frame and the Bikes frame. . The assymetry of accelerating and braking can worry some new riders, till they get more experience. You have to look a fair bit ahead to set up your Cornering. It's near impossible to ride a combination with No weight in the chair, safely. Too fast into an off camber LH downhill corner, anytime, will see you in the bushes or a head-on with something coming the other way..You either get to like the challenge or you Hate them. . They put a lot of strain on the engine and the Bike frame and wheels. (side loads). Plenty of original setups were 3 Point. The Goulding was a Popular make here till about 1930 after which it went to the USA. Another big presence was the Dusting and the Yeats was a well set up 4 point mount that was well accepted. and good quality. Tyre wear on the rear wheel can be quite Poor with bigger wider outfits. .

  4. Don't be a "Stair" Case. Also don't fall for the Book. Advice from someone with a lot of experience of falling WOULD would not be Helpful. Install a lift, or sell the House and eliminate the risk. .Nev
  5. USA is in a BIG Pickle. Sometimes called a gherkin. Nev.

    Not really very deep and Meaningful. Farce book is not a University.. Good for some things if used appropriately.. It depends on how much time you have to spare.. I don't DO Facebook, so some of these things are not available to me and I would not be the Only one. Nev
  8. The fuel those ships engines use is pretty crap stuff, but Taswegia is an Island and everything comes and goes by Boat or Plane and the way things are going in the ME, wheres the diesel coming from? Nev
  9. Greedy Rotten Bastards. . That will SINK Tasmania. Is the NEW Ferry Running yet? Where's the Diesel coming from? Nev
  10. There's a Place called Aukland so just what are Auks? T A Bot called Canada, Canadia. and he is a Rogues Collar.. AKA "the Mad Monk". UK just rejected VAD. . Currently there's no such thing as an "Associate Member" of NATO. A lot of this is a flight of fantasy. Idiot Trump is close to declaring WAR on NATO. Any competition is a threat to The Orange U Tan. He's threatened to cut off ALL trade.. He's capable of anything and needs to be locked up for the Safety of the World. When is ENOUGH enough? He's likely to Put the world into another depression.. Like what happened in 1929. Nev
  11. At no stage did I even Mention conversions. Nev
  12. Low humidity, Wind, Dry lightning? Plenty of fuel. It's not just temperature. Nev
  13. Little Brat chucks toys out of Pram. ( For all the world to see. ). You couldn't WRITE this stuff. Egotistic Greedy,Vain and Vengeful. . Nev
  14. I'm NOT interested in Pissing contests..Just FACTS. Pilot's aren't allowed mistakes and they can kill 100s by making just one, or having some gadget throw a fit. Nev
  15. How would you verify that? Nev
