That is one sweet gear shifter Mick, but I wonder if the toe piece actually swivels around parallel with the shaft, to make it even more aero-dynamic at warp speed? Fcuk, I better get one for my Harley, I've noticed a bit of drag at speeds in excess of the old ton, and I reckon it's most likely cause is the standard fixed toe lever on the gear shifter creating excessive drag........... ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

It's OK to be pissed off in the BS thread Mick, we don't discriminate here, everybody's equal, except me of course, because it's my fcuking thread! ;D

I was watching Donald Trump on TV waffling on about building a wall to keep out the Mexicans, so I switched over to my favorite Mexican TV news channel, just in time to catch the Mexican president saying that shortly they'll be building a wall to keep Donald Trump out, and it will be worth every peso to keep that fcuking dopey bugger with the world's worst comb-over away from their senorita's ............... ;D

I just heard that if he wins the election, he'll be older that Ronny Raygun was when he was elected? Wow? I thought that as you got older you got wiser, he must have been one dumb son of a b1tch when he was young! But I'd still vote for him, cuz I don't like Hillary........... ;D

The Irish government is reluctant to take $14bn from Apple as directed by the EU. Not wanting to hold a political hot potato for too long they called me to ask would I take it into my French bank account. Just as I had expected they would. I told them to fcuk off. I am independently wealthy,  I don't need tainted tax avoidance money, and anyway $14bn is a trifle. I couldn't be arsed going down the bank to sign the forms.
Silence on the phone for a while, then they asked if I knew anyone who would like to have it, so I suggested they join the SOHC4 forum and ask. Someone there is bound to be interested, I said,  as that could probably buy the entire world's supply of SOHC4 Hondas.
One of you members could be getting real lucky soon. Me, I'll just have another Lidl beer and leave the phone off the hook.

Yeah I know what you mean Martin, I could have spent less and bought another F2 resto project that a mate was trying to palm off on me, but after I lost thousands of dollars on my last one, I realised then and there that you really can't polish a turd.......... ;D

Hmmm, you must have been doing something wrong there Terry. I sold my last F2 for a huge profit, then when the new owner fell on hard times I bought it back cheap, flipped it straight away and doubled my money again. The money I earned from that paid the deposit for the palatial residence I now occupy.

I now have another F2 for sale, because I quite like the idea of having a beach volleyball pitch in my back garden for the Olympic womens teams to practice on before they go off to Tokyo, and  the two-way mirrors I plan to  put in their dressing rooms are bloody expensive. As I peer from the window, I can see a steady stream of Harley owners taking their place in the queue to bid on the F2, some even bringing their girlfriends with them as potential deal sweeteners. Tits and chrome as far as the eye can see.

Now, which one to polish first..... ;D

beer..in denmark moms/tax is 22%.

 :( :( :(
Worse in Sweden.... a 0.5L beer of 5%alc cost about $2US. 0.7L Smirnoff Vodka cost $26US, std Jack Daniels 0.7L $36US
Lidl beer 3.5% cost $0.8 US
It was very popular to take the boat to Denmark shopping beer, special shops even supplied carrier

Swedish VAT is 25% on almost everything except alcohol in higher degrees that has much much more.....

True that Sweden has a high VAT tax, but unlike the USA you will not lose your car and house from one
accident or 3 day visit to the hospital.
My last stay at a local hospital cost over $110,000.00usd.
 >:(

Even with insurance it cost me $11,000. out of pocket, 14 months later I'm still trying to pay it off .

But I bought a winning lottery ticket so I will pay them in full and reimburse the insurance company
for being so honest, straightforward, kind, understanding and informative in all their dealings with me. 8)

Yes, better to visit hospital here. Check in fee for all kind of issues around $20-40US, around $40US per day for food if stay. Broken leg or close to death accident same cost... We have therefore around 40% tax on the sallary, 25% VAT for the remaining 60% when using them.

People that have no job get free apartment, money for food, clothes etc. No problem to visit dentist or hospital either,
I think the government have to increase taxes when the politicians are so generous to people from 3:rd world.... I guess soon around 50%. Same problem in Germany too I guess.

My bike get fuel for $1.75US/L
