Over here they created one of those "wank" names for what you do.... "survivalist", but its just a way of life?
I find your style very REAL, no pretentious shite there mate ![8D]
A rides a ride ! Does`nt have to look like a blinged up tarts handbag to be great ! lol
Theres a couple of great bike builds going one here using old shitters as a base ! Ultra cool []
a survivalist? hey! thats partly 'bout me: wen all the wages spent for bikes parts every fortnight, the only ways left is to survive! [] hell, yeah, i have one!
as for bike itself, i hate seeing a bike dying, and it was dying in a cellar half flooded with water, so i was just obliged to buy and give it another life. its crankcase was filled with water too, phases were set wrong, its [former] tank was covered with rust under playboy and stimorol stickers (i still keep the tank for future restoration, it has a sector for a jockey shift: coming from izh49, 1949, the true old skool)
so that was my goal: to restore the bike on a really low budget, improving it, where possible... had i more funds, i'd make a real updated bike, with fi and a small turbine [8D]
actually, if the bike doesnt sell, im gonna use the naglfars steel chassis and its steel tank, to make a real fighter (or a bomber), still with a carb - just because i'll have an odd chassis, when a new tutanium one is made.
every kind of bikes has a different purpose, and is for different use: u wont ride to some shit hole on ur busa, a dirty tractor is the right thing! the same with me: i can leave it anywhere without a fear, that some wanker would steal a turbine, or just drop it (still taking the battery with me)
and thanks colin, for estimatin' my style, i hope i have one too [:I] i like it to be funtional, imroving a thing, not just for showin' off... i usually see the urals and dniepers copying harleys, but stuffed with old crap: pornographic carbs back from 50s, leaking with oil, but most of all makes me laugh, how much not needed shit they have on themselves, like coughin' car stereo [:0], 40l tanks [:0] [:0], safety bars, ape hangers with billet steel handles - too fucking much for a 36hp old vet!!! me, i gave it some viagra and took some fat away
Way too much anal retention about bikes over here... I`ve seen it for years
Your self reliant mate !
Big example of a newb Brit biker:
A "mate" of mine recently into bikes... ex army lad.
Had a newish GSXR1000 when I 1st met him.
Told me he had major problems with the clutch, went on and on about his clutch problem.
Took it into his local Zuke dealer, not clutch mate.... the gear change lever nylon bush is buggered because he never cleaned around the pegs. The nylon bush was chewed to hell with grit and road shite.
Nowt to do with the bloody clutch, it was a stiff gear lever because it was foobarred..... idiot !
Next weekend we were due to ride out again. He can`t get the bike into the service department to have the new gear lever fitted..... WTF !!! [xx(][V]
So I offered to go and pick up the gear lever from the dealer for him and go around and fit it to his bike.... 2 minute job to fit it ?
Piece of piss innit ?
Err no.
This idiot says ohhhh no... the dealer has to do that, "you" can`t do it..... its a special job only for the service department....
yeah yeah....ok byeeee
Pass me another retard this ones broken ?
Like another guy who couldnt change his headlamp bulb on his ZX12, cost him over £80 at the dealer.
Bike building .... love it [
Best part is breathin life back into them when they are wrecks... you too ??
yeah mate, fuck the "new wave" of nyuppie /not young

fuck, they gather into exquisite "bikers clubs", like hog russia mc, appointing themselves for club segniour members, members, supports, etc, showing off everywhere, making run-outs into the western european bike fests, so they claim to be the real bikers, not us, who drink beer in a garage, not registered anywhere, not running out beyond moscows capital territory... the survivalists! [}
