Hi. I’m Troy McClure. You may remember me from such self-help tapes as “Smoke Yourself Thin” and “Get Some Confidence, Stupid!”
NYTimes: "...highlights of his global tour include encounters with Nelson Mandela, an 800-year-old demigod and a dildo collector."

You will make the best sweep Rendang as I'm sure no second can miss a beautiful orange duke.

Steve/Rendang,..............are you going to take this or remove the gloves and go for it..............?
Don't let these Nth'n Beaches wax heads upset, or compromise your over zealous overtaking techniques mate.....
They're only jealous cos they don't have a tangerine bike like yours. Notice how they have to have 1000 cc's between their legs ? Typical of a male suffering from ...........well, do I need to say it in here ?
I only wish that I wasn't up north that weekend so I could keep an eye on them for you mate. There's nothing wrong with that 800 of yours
Below is a gentle reminder of how handy you can be on a ride my friend.......
024
In the spirit of all things " The life of Brian" I thought I would share this with you
Not quite as funny as Rendang under pressure but it places the shoe on the other foot so to speak
I present Bwian the mechanic.
Make sure you turn the volume up .

Firstly apologies to Betty for hijacking his thread but as Bwian wont be attending this ride (due to sunny conditions ...... he only rides in the wet) I thought we should enjoy some of his escapades from previous DMF adventures

Mark, I will be away when this ride is on but it doesn't mean I can't add some support.
Rendang/Steve for the sweep I hear...? Minor problem with that, if he isn't letting the farmers cows out, you will find him as is below........

I will be bringing the usual fencing wire,sticky tape etc and wearing this T-shirt on the ride, that way if anyones motor blows up I can use it as a guide/manual when putting it back together.
I wish Brian was coming with his MV, I could bring my cordless anglegrinder and staple gun and turn it into a V four. Lets face it, as an inline four its really just as mundane and ordinary as any jap bike.

happened oust down the road form my house Steve, at the Clifton end of seal off bridge
bikes a write-off but is insured.
only thing that pisses me off is the fact that I had just ordered a shitload of parts...
so looks like I'll be chasing down another S4 when I'm back on deck
was a low side.
rear let go and I was cranked over a bit too. far, it just spun itself off the edge.
no dramas.
I busted right femur, left lower tibia, left clavicle, fractured scapula lhs, and fractured vertebra on outside of Lower neck. (c3&4
my dainese 1pc suit saved me but I had to have it cut open to get me out.
surgery for 7 and a bit hrs today.
first serious accident in 30 years of riding, and first time for broken legs. only ever had broken ribs/small bones before.
not much fun but I'll get there....

i dont care if you have been a mechanic for 10 years doing something for a long time does not make you good at it, take my gf for an example shes been walking for 28 years and still manages to fall over all the time.
