Money pits building them yourself. I picked up mine used, kept it for about 6 months and made 6k on her. It shit itself not long after I sold it to, so that was lucky for me, unlucky for the buyer of cause. I did feel for him but what can ya do?
I haven't owned many bikes but worked in the industry and rode different bikes literally everyday. Nothing pulls the chicks like a chopper. Harleys in general work a treat but a chopper takes it to a whole new level.
Small roundabouts are a mathematical equation... lean, steer, lean, brake, lean, steer and the bike going scape, scrape, scrape on the exhaust. Lots of fun to ride, big grin stuff.
I'm jealous ya cunt!
I did up a few and crashed a few hot cars when I was younger lol I’m not a real “bike”guy I just like the way you can see all the fabrication and the engineering on a custom. It’s the same with cars I used to be on the look out for unfinished projects when I was fucking around with cars,it usually meant “I’ve spent all my money and I need to get some back or my wife/gf will kill me “ lol

Really nice bike you have there. I fucked up doing a oil change done up the sump bolt to tight and stripped it. Havt to take it to the mechanic tomorrow and hopefully he will rethread the engine.

Isn’t that a cunt when that happens they should have a rubber o-ring on the sump nut so you just tighten it till the o ring compresses a little

Yeah and it will help give them a bit of cold resistance aswell,that’s why the powdered stuff is better than a seaweed extract it hasn’t been heated up so all the natural hormones and enzymes that are in kelp remain intact. Don’t go overboard but if you are watering with it you don’t have to go to light mine have been on full strength for a while now

Wife is back up and cooking me bacon and eggs like a good women.

I just harvested all the top colas on the front right NL and two on the back left one. The back right looks like it might be the surprise package. Its still throwing pistils and the colas are fairly even height and getting pretty fat.
I should of taken a pic to make the above more understandable but I'm a bit smashie drunk.

Anything I foliar if they don’t give a specified amount I usually give half the amount you would use if you are watering with it,but if your not sure go less foliar is really effective so you can go a bit light with it. The eco is 5 g /10 L so I usually make up a bucket at full strength then half fill my sprayer add the other stuff I’m spraying then top up with water

The wallabies decided to trim 3 gorilla bombs last night. Had to put up a cage to stop the bastards coming back. Was about an hour in bush doing my thing checking on patches. When I heard a pup about 40 metres away barking and sulking. Fuck I hate wild dogs.

How effective is foliar compared to watering in the ferts?
A lot more,look at broad acre farms you don’t see them pouring 1000’s of litres of nutrients over their paddocks do you ? When I’m feeding the big plants I’ll give each about 20 L of mix when I foliar they get under 2 L. It does depend on what nutrients you are trying to feed but it’s definitely more cost effective and faster acting it’s just a matter of getting good application and the right products. I started adding fulvic last year and it blew me away how effective it is at getting the plant to absorb the nutrients.

They are the only animal that scares me out in the bush,especially in packs of 5 or more they are evil
