Kawasaki Sportsbike Riders Club - Australia - Online Forum

Greetings from the land of the mentally challenged, (the U.S.). I have been following your writings for some time and find that you are more in line with my thinking than the uptight arse holes in my country. I ride a 2004 Z1000 with PCIII, full Muzzy, airbox mod and modified plastics, (due to a crash). Feel free to insult and degrade me as I have been married 4 times and am used to it, (a total of 43 years). Above all else remember that a good shot and a brew make all things clear.

Were you at Xmas party on the weekend?

Welcome to the club oldman

There's plenty of degradation around here and from the sounds of it your well versed! Se feel free to spread the insults as you please

Welcome Old man, married 4 times you be the expert then....... or mabey not beats my 2

I don't get four times... Wouldn't you learn after 2.. or even three

Welcome oldman

hi oldman, and welcome. Your bike sounds almost identical to mine Is it a titanium system muzzy? if so, do you get a buzzing noise from the pipes at all? I love my bike, but there's an annoying buzz that no-one can determine the cause of, I reckon it may be exhaust gaskets, but don't want to go digging to replace them if I don't have to. I'm going to pull the tank etc. off soon, and re-go over looking for loose bits.

from this old man (as in yoda) to another 'oldman' even if you are in the YewEssofHay...welcome

glad you like our writings...and wit
and the fact you like the odd brew means things will just be fine and dandy....

from which of the many states of the US do you hark from?

You would think I would learn, but at 64, (years old) I am still riding at a very fast pace, (for me) so I guess not. I finally met a ladie that will put up with my mental idiosyncrazys, which are many so we decided for finacial reasons only, to get married. I have the stainless Muzzy's with the carbon fiber can. i have only put 20 miles, (about 33km) on the pipes as the weather in Utah right now is about 17 degrees F, which is really cold so after insatallation a 20 minute ride was all I could stand. When I have riden further I wil post the results.

Welcome, oldman !
What lesson didn't you learn, after the first marriage ???

17 deg F is ...... like....... -8 deg C thats crazy, its 102 deg F here in the factory tropical

17°F ? hmmm....guess the mormons in Utah like that

and like you, down here Mexico way its a cool 100°F...in the shade

Welcome aboard. Glad to see at least one person in the Ewe Ess of Aye has a sense of humor about everything (and especially themselves), I've been over your side and your right, far too much "straight laced"ness over there. and 17'F, ouch, your more game than i am.

yeh Rob - the mid-west states have suffered an enormous cold-snap over the last week or 2, some temps have dropped down to -24deg and as low as -36deg C !!! farking cold .....heaps of snow and wind as well. Basically - entirely shitty weather for riding...

Welcome aboard oldman - I recognise that handle from a few forums (I am guessing you are on more than this one ?)

Welcome Oldman.
Glad to see a Yank that knows what "The Yanks" are like

G'day and welcome oldman...........

You sure you aren't part Aussie ?........ You call Yanks mentally challenged and you realise that a brew makes everything clear, that's how Aussies think....

And wow, 4 marriages, you must be rich or you drink too many brews and haven't learnt your lesson yet..........
