Just posting something because I think it's a shame that this once excellent forum is all but dead now.
Almost finished this motor.

Yes I've been a member on here for well over ten years and enjoyed the different threads and all the characters on here ;) but the last couple of years - its just died, why? I noticed a drop off when Dan went off to become a editor on Scootering and all the bloody annoying ads appeared. Other forums have died a death as well ( accept the LCGB forum 8-) ) but its a hell of a drop off. Nice engine by the way ;) cheers Paul

You're absolutely correct, but if you ask a question on there, you get 20 half-arsed opinions about things that are vaguely connected to what you asked. And every now and again, one sensible bit of advice.

I hate Facebook.

Aye what happened to him? I know there was some controversy on the other forum but he seems to have disappeared altogether.

Currently recovering from heart problems he’s still good though
