  1. Can you not get fibre? Even with the bestest router in the world 10mbps down and 1mbps up simply isn't going to cut it for 3 heavy users IMO.
  2. Lol, and my parents always said ranting would never pay off.
  3. I can't decide if she's got crazy eyes or not... (Dan's new girl)
  4. Never owned a Kawasaki, maybe you're thinking of Ben Cox? I have a Honda VT500E, it's a big heavy old man's touring bike.
  5. Aye haha, it'll be fine though. It's a bit tired but I reckon it's got at least another 15k in it.
  6. Well the mileage isn't as relevant as the fact that it's a Honda that burns oil haha.
  7. I believe the term is "certified spacker".
  8. 26 years old haha. Not that old really but it has done 44k miles, which is like a car doing 200k really. It's pretty worn so it burns oil and the clutch slips a bit and so on.
  9. It has a fob? What for?

    The Angry Thread.

    Filing your BB axle? Possibly the worst bodge I've ever heard of being done to a bicycle. Just file the hole in the tool bigger, or even better just get it turned bigger (on a lathe).

    Don't post then. Take a hint from everyone on here... Facebook is a tool, misuse it and you'll end up being a twonk. Use it in moderation, like everything in life, and it's fine. You can take any item in life, and if you overuse it you'll end up in a mess, whether it's Facebook, television, mobile phones, steroids, drugs, sex, food, sleep, and so on. If you're a weak minded person who struggles to control certain aspects of life, I feel bad for you, and by all means cut Facebook off. Don't come f**king preaching to me about how awesome you are though.
  12. My bike is awesome. Done about 150 miles over the bank hol weekend and it's not missed a beat. Still loads of job to do to it but it's slowly getting there.
  13. Niicceeee. Was it a proper blow out or did you just not twig it was deflating until it went all squirmy?
  14. Who said I work hard? My job is perfect for what I want. Zero-stress, interesting, fulfilling, pays enough to comfortably live on and space to move up the ladder. Seems a pretty smart choice to me...
  15. It was an accident... I thought it could handle a very small increase in volts over the max recommended (I used 1.6v instead of 1.55v), but I was wrong. 965BE C2 (proper clunker haha), I got 3.8ghz stable but 4.0ghz for a single SuperPI 1m run.
  16. So that I can afford to live my life? How else am I supposed to pay for my flat and my bills and the gym and my phone and my motorbike and to go walking and climbing and to the pub? 37.5 hours a week isn't "so much", it's a comfortable amount which allows you a life outside work, hence why it's the standard number of hours people tend to work in normal jobs.
  17. 37.5, 9-5:30. f**k doing any more than that, life is too short!
  18. It was OCing that turned this thing into a heap in the first place haha. My own fault though, I went past the recommended max vcore for this chip. It works well enough now, but I have to run it with the voltages turned up for stock clocks.
  19. Good work. I keep considering upgrading my desktop, but it's gonna realistically cost £2k for what I want, and I don't want to spend that, so I'll probably just keep this heap going until it keels over.
  20. Ska punk! One of my favourite kinds of punk.
  21. If you keep arguing until everyone has died of old age, then you win!
  22. If there's any videos that want adding to a history archive type thing, let Danny Kearns know as he started a youtube channel and uploaded his entire collection.
  23. You do realise this thread will just be you and I talking to each other, with the odd person asking about getting their licence? My bike is great, seeing 70mpg sometimes and apart from little stuff (indicators, speedo/rev counter cables) nothing has needed replacing yet. It is a bit tired though as it is a 45k engine. I stripped the clutch down as it was slipping pretty badly, cleaned it all up and measured everything, and it was all like new. Put it back together and it does still slip a little but nowhere near as bad or as often. Drive shaft issues were purely from it having the wrong oil in it. I replaced it and I've done 750 miles since with no trouble. Almost at the point where I can go touring with my womanfriend this summer now.
  24. Some say that was shit... And they're right.
