No, nitro at the pub.
What I can't drink goes straight into the Norton tank.
Ride home, approx 30 seconds.

I hired some help to repack it. Well actually I have been up to my neck in bathroom renovations. So here it is finally, in all it's boxed magnificence on its way to Jim tomorrow.

It'll be wed/Thursday for me . Before she leaves I'll give her an hour on the sun bed!
And by the time she's back hopefully she's quit the smoking!
Good luck with the smoking, those tailor made things will kill you. Expensive bastards too. On the other hand, the "roll your own" are good for you and the more you smoke, the more you save.

Mine turned 102 HP once we got the Dyno set right. It also showed me exactly what jet sizes to put in my carbs...amazing what technology can do for you.[/
And by the way you're chucking it about looks like it handles well too!
That's hobot on Emma Peel, let loose on the track with fat tires.

But I did say that was a daft place to keep your tool kit!
auldblue,
You and I will be attacked yet again for off topic non motorbike let alone non Norton let even further alone non Commando discussion. So I'll leave you with a photo of my Commando tool box. I've never opened it as I don't know which end is which.

Sorry phil
What I meant to say was could I stick daytona first gears in this puppy.
Library picture.
Cos the roads here are very diddy with a lot of daft blind corners and narrow. Or am I just being stupid.
I've seen your tool kit before.
Any feedback on the daytona gears , only negative will be appreciated!

So has Time, he said it looked bored. It didn't move for more than three weeks so I threw it out and got one without the fur lining. Haven't opened it either. Easier to buy more Commandos than fix old ones.

Many many years ago I was attending a pilot conference, a two day affair in Melbourne and the night in-between was usually a riot of a time. I took with me Felicity who was our second only ever female airline pilot, she was assisting me at the time. On morning two she turned to me and said everyone has the right to enjoy life, but you abuse the privilege!!
I never did understand what she meant, mainly because I couldn't remember the night before anyway. But I think she meant a man should not be allowed to own too many Nortons!
Just what you'd expect a woman to say!!

I'm talking 30 years ago when we used to do silly things like drink a little too much on odd occasions. They were different times, certainly for me as I can't recall the last time I drank more than two beers in an evening, maybe three max. It was a long time ago. Mind is as sharp or sharper than ever. Alcohol or any substance for that matter is not an issue for me.

Hi mark
My name is Candy, I'm 43 yo , I'm a Virgo which is good . I'm looking for someone tall with a firm right leg for a good straddle start. As you can see from the photo I'm dripping a bit from my sump new washer perhaps. I'm 750 top end new pistons, mick hemmings attended to my jugs. 850 cases with standard cam, single mikuni. New wheels and avon road riders etc
