The phrase "downhill mountain bike" springs to mind ?
Might give you a chance to look at marketing & taking deposits on those BMW head kits.
Got some $$$ coming my way & you've already done the prototype...

Make sure they put proper stainless steel in, non of that plastic rubbish. Best of luck in recovering with no long term problems. |

If i told you once Matt, i 've said it a thousand times..... you are a Mini Mehcanic, that is your job. YOU ARE NOT A PROFESSIONAL MOUNTAIN BIKE RIDER  ........... you cannot earn a living from it.
P.S Hope all goes well with the scan, recovery etc. Don't become more of an alcoholic than you already are ok? |

Ah dude! FFS! When I said to hold off doing my engine for a while, I didn't mean to incapacitate yourself so you were physically unable to do it. Give me call if you need anything mate. I could come and take pics of your ankle instead of the twinky.

hee hee,,,thanks guys,,,feel better allready
Handra, sorry to hear about your leg mate,,, DH can be dangerous but only if you fall off hey?,,,i over shot a 30ft gap jump & landed on the flat about a 10ft after the down ramp, i normally under shoot jumps & case the rear wheel a bit until i work the speed out & then i`m normally sweet, but this one had a super fast entry & i let her go, silly , way too fast & way too big
AWDMOKE, i was seriously concidering selling one of my Bimmer Cyl heads & i even typed it into my original post, but then had second thoughts & backspaced it
I`ll be getting my Monaco back from preditor Motorsport next week (they`ve been making & fitting the intercooler for me) so i`m gonna get young Stewy to rip the motor back out & i`ll be sitting at my bench building it, hopfully for the very last time, so maybe when my foot is out of it`s cast i might have a donk ready for anger
BROWN CLUBMAN,,,I have lots of clubby parts including a complete drive away car if you`re keen, going cheap GAFMO thanks man, & yeah, some of what i have "stored away" i won`t be selling
CHRIS,,,i think they`re doin titanium screws, hee hee, you know how much of a weight weiny i am
SG,,, I win most of my races & they keep giving me Tyres & stuff, so i basically race for nothing, most of the guys that come racing with me pay for all the fuel & food etc so it doesn`t cost me diddly squat,,,well,,,till i break my foot i spose
MORPHIAS,,,,yeah, come on round & take some pics next week mate , havn`t got any of the ankle yet & the Monaco has the donk in & the intercooler mounted now, so should get some more "progressive shots hey? I have had some Private messages about parts for sale & it takes me a while to get down stairs & down the back to the shed, & then it takes a while to get to the various bins & boxes & shelves to find the bits, so if you guys can wait a little, i definately will respond, just might not be till next week
ok??? cheers guys & thanks again |
