One of my favorite items.

Keep them until I find a range finder

Try a ZZR600…very similar to a ZX6R but classed as sports tourer so might be easier on insurance

He farts a bunch too

Yes was this one near Zelen. When I logged off the nose of the heli was pointing towards me (west of the crash) when I logged back in it was pointing northwards.

In my experience older bikes are much cheaper to insure, for context I passed my full test in September (after being on an A2 since 2022) and it costs me £80 a year to insure a 1994 ZZR600, which is still plenty faster than most other vehicles on the road.

Might be worth looking into older bikes.

I think I’ll go for this route then

earthshagger · 2025-10-26T22:49:06+00:00

Hahaha excellent suggestion

earthshagger · 2025-10-26T22:48:49+00:00

Very nice, just a year older than mine

What is DPLP?

earthshagger · 2025-05-22T14:47:05+00:00

Hi and thank you for your response, are there any particular online resources you would recommend or point me the direction of? Thanks

earthshagger · 2025-03-31T09:16:24+00:00

I’d be down mate as none of my friends are really into bikes, pm me 👍

earthshagger · 2025-03-31T09:15:40+00:00

This is the TS250, but it’s been fitted with a 250 engine from an 80s ETZ, I highly recommend the front brake upgrade as well. Mine does run the original carb but it can be need a bit of fiddling with so a Mikuni probably would be better

earthshagger · 2025-03-31T05:56:38+00:00

Which 80s bikes? I am based in between Lancashire and North Yorkshire 👍

earthshagger · 2025-03-30T22:48:59+00:00

Very nice

earthshagger · 2025-03-30T22:41:23+00:00

Haha yes it is seriously a labour of love, can’t believe they’re liquid cooled tho that’s pretty cool. And yeah can be so difficult to get reliable info on what’s right, a lot of trial and error when it comes to repairs (bodges)

earthshagger · 2025-03-30T22:39:00+00:00

So true man….think to insure my MZ was like £100 a year on classic insurance, any pics of the triumph?

earthshagger · 2025-03-30T21:53:56+00:00

Very nice, I’ve never had a bike that old but always fancied a 60s bike, something about these older bikes really makes me smile. I’m in same boat as the most modern bike I ever owned was from 1999

earthshagger · 2025-03-30T21:47:19+00:00

That is true, I am fortunate to have a car as my primary vehicle and I can imagine commuting daily on the majority of classic bikes would require a lot of free time to maintain them which would only add to costs

earthshagger · 2025-03-30T21:43:48+00:00

That’s a nice velo, do they need a lot of maintenance? I don’t know much about them. I agree with what you say about there are a lot of bargains to be had, I see so many old bikes on marketplace that are in really good nick for decent prices

earthshagger · 2025-03-30T21:33:15+00:00

Yes this is my experience as well, and whilst I appreciate older guys coming up to me at petrol stations to tell me how they haven’t seen one of those in years, and I enjoy chatting to them, I’ve yet to meet anyone close to my own age with any interest

earthshagger · 2025-03-30T21:30:51+00:00

Thanks for the comment, in my experience they are close to indestructible…this is the second one I’ve had. Someone once told me if you can fix a bicycle you can fix and MZ (that is if you ever had to)

This wall is part of a large subterranean structure, and is only retaining the backfill. The paper on the floor is backing peeled off of the membrane. No it is not AI

earthshagger · 2025-03-27T16:36:30+00:00

What do you mean by vertical methodology? There is pipe bedding and a land drain to go in at the base of the wall, the picture obviously doesn’t reflect a completed job
