He's in the reserve, uses a Apache, the chain gun cannon just rips the trees out the ground saves all that chain saw nonsense. Win win situation gets credit with hours on type and reduces the lumber company's costs. Jim about to do some serious lumber cutting Opps not the best place to take the photo from

Not only are we spoilt with N-Grossen; U-Grossen & B-Grossen - sorry don't know how to type an Umlaut and Ezsett so have Anglasized it . There is micro biological elements with "antismell" - I'm not sure that's a real German word. and chemical equations and diagrams, not sure if that Hydro Carbon chain included a Benzine ring or not. Plenty there for those blessed with my Adonis like form and/or interest in bacteria and chemistry. Not quite the exclusive domain of the Tennisti.

No, it's a voyage of discovery. and repeat The knowledge you lack at the start you can make up for with enthusiasm. The enthusiasm can be repaired with a credit card. At the end of the month along with the credit card bill arrives knowledge.

Who do you think is taking the picture then? might be super heroes but either don't have or can't operate a self timer on the abstract camera

When I fitted the new bracket I tried to tighten up the whole system. But those troublesome balance pipe clamps where stuck, so today I gave them a good douse in WD40 (won't mention the over spray on to the front disc ) And was able to slacken them off and tighten them so it again is clamped tight. Will have to see how a couple of heat cycles and vibration effect it. But I have found that the front Torx bolt for the foot plate on the non wobbly can had gone missing along with the fibre/rubber washer. I have Torx keys so was able to remove the whole plate. Poking a stick down the holes gives the impression that they could be blind. But as the end of the stick came out with a brown rusty deposit it could be rubbing against an internal baffle. I might have to ride without my left boot on so I can cover and uncover the holes and play some sweet Guzzi tunes.

As you attached the picture twice is that a subtle request for me to pick one up for you?

I'll redo the two fat boys picture, make sure the Guzzi T shirt is more prominent Like the sneer ? I will be going on the bike this year.

Anyone going? I'm headed up on Monday. Looks like there might be light showers . There's no official Guzzi presence though the owners club will be there.

Or put a different picture of their bike in with each post

Lovely collection of Guzzis. Aren't rallys wonderful. Some good scenery as well. My dad has "done" NZ I hope to be in the position to do myself one day. The world is just to big and full of wonderful places, I'll never get to experience them all first hand OI ! Everyone Please continue with your travelogues for us vicarious pillions,

Saw this picture today, follows on from the 6.5 above, think it might be new. Don't know if past the concept stage or not, Has a V engine so more than just a nose job.

Gary, are you going to do the RBR again next year? If so do you want to accompany me over this weekend? I would do it roughly the same as I did it this year. We could join up either on the Thursday or Friday or just do Saturday or Sunday. Loads of options. Based on this year Thursday this year was at Bate Heath 0715hrs then points north and overnighted Penrith with my sister Friday left Penrith 0730ish doable from Liverpool for then then did points to Spean Bridge 2000hrs Saturday 0630 -2030 all poits north of Spean bridge Sunday 0630 the south east and to Penrith by 1800 again could make for the Pool or stay Can talk more about it face to face Welsh Waltz 2 ? Still waiting for my leave to be confirmed over three weeks since put in for the german trip and then Erin and this as and when posted

Well I seem to be in possession of this extra Quiz point. I shouldn't. I've tried to return it to it's rightful owner but he mistakenly doesn't believe it to be his My conscious will not let me keep it so I'm left with no other option to dispose of it. Proceeds of sale to the upkeep of this site, unless the rightful owner steps up to claim it. I know this should be in clasified , but you can't add your comments there

Basking in reflected glory

None of this Brazilian or Hollywood nonsense. The self confidence to be the Hairy Scura.

c It's not cheating, if you know it you get it straight off, if you recconise it it limits the searching you have to do, if you haven't a clue it takes a lot of searching. I view it like an open book exam. The more knowledge you have the less book work you do and it's quicker. I might be searching on motorised tamdens later But as it stands I haven't a clue and can't yet spend the time on this one. Perhaps once Halloween is gone during my night shift next week. Do find some interesting things whilst searching

I'm opting for MDF (medium density fibreboard)(no zoom on the browser at work) Edit- mines far left

Trivia Stadio Omobono Tenni Home ground of Fbc Treviso. This Tennious connection is surely enough to encourage all Guzzisti to cheer on Benneton Treviso in the Heineken Cup in their campaign to advance into the knock out round playing against; Ulster; Saracens and Biarritz. Okay perhaps that's a bit much I'll settle for against Biarritz

All things Tenni http://www.tenni.com/ Sari Tenni, a painter from Helsinki, Finland. Notice in this Tenni picture: the usage of Moto Guzzi racing Green, the browns of the suede seat, and the silver used to emphasise the shading. The hair is however in control and the curves of the dustbin fairing are replicated and all done with out the use of jelly.

Sideshow Ombono himself and with it short soaring pufins

I think you're right if take your repair inspiration from a Diesal Injection engine you will be embarassed

Can I make a case for an appeal. In Guzzi Tim v Helicopter Jim, the judgement went in favour of Tim Where Tim had correctly identified the bike first, but Jim had answered the whole question. I would submit that this is such a simular case that a case law has been set. To do other wise would create a conflict in dogma and cause the collapse in the belief of the Almighty Quiz God and serious divisons and strife with his Temple (V11Lemans.com) and lead to the rise of the Anti Guzzi (I can't bring myself to say the name). So please take your Quiz point. Or I'll be forced to print it out and bring it to Germany next summer and present it in person

There has been one link posted to the Drysdale site on this topic; Future Guzzis topic I say all credit to Jim for remembering it and he should get the Quiz point.

I'll send you some soap on a rope Is that not the the Lion from the Wizard of Oz

No shouldn't be my point. Jaap identified the bike. He just didn't google the specs. I know the question was the other way around, but Jaap was the man who identified it.
