Nah, you were being talked down to because you come across as a dumb fuck who won't listen to blokes who've given you exactly the right advice.
Now harden the fuck up, this is FJ.
You listen to what these blokes tell you and you cannot go wrong.
Dr Ratfart in particular, why do you reckon he is known as the carb Doctor?


New here, do not know anyone or who knows what.

"Now harden the fuck up, this is FJ"

Does that mean I need to be a dick and call people dumb fuck... OK I'll try.

Course it does, no punches pulled here.
'Bout the only things that get a bit of attention would be:


  • Hatred
    Nudity (the occasional hint gets overlooked)
    Bigotry.
Apart from that, yeah, you'll get really good advice here and maybe make some lifelong friends.
We cuss and swear, pull pranks and stir the pot, but there is no more a supportive group than this one.
Cheers and welcome.

Thanks good stuff. I am a smart ass dick but try not to be.  :diablo:

For reference I own and operate a off road motorcycle accessory company. We manufacture lots of parts for off road bike. Engineer and CAD operator by trade. Been working in the motorcycle industry for many years and riding since birth. Have always owned street bike but my main love is off road as there are no rules and WAY less death.

Sorry to snap back at the original and good info.

Carry on fuckfaces.  :mocking:

Thanks for the info. Sorry i pissed people off. Seemed like i was being talked down to like i knew nothing because i come from a dirt bike back ground.


You couldn't have been more wrong... many on this board own/ride dirt bikes.

Take a look around here, and you'll find there is even a dirt bike section here.

The ECSR has featured a dirt bike ride for the last couple of years, as well.

You may want to post up in the vendor section, too...    :good:

Bigotry.

But it's okay if it's "friendly" and constant, no matter how offensive it actually is to people.

I used to resell Barrett mufflers from Australia. I have several left and this one fit perfect on the Kerker header I scored off Ebay for $55.

It's not "BIGOTRY" if it is aimed at Bloody Seppos.

Oh, yes, the Pine Cones secreted in my luggage, ha ha.
What a jolly jape.
I'm happy to say that  Australian Customs  did not discover what would have been viewed as an extremely serious and expensive breach of quarantine regulations.
Penalties for breaching Australia's quarantine laws include fines of up to $60 000 and imprisonment.
Quarantine breaches are considered far more serious than,say, a bag of dope.
That's because Australia is one of the very few countries that is free of many biological hazards,you know, fruit cankers, rabies etc.

Can I cheat you out of it, rather than owe it to you?
