Blown plugs.
 

Biltema. Everything they sell sucks.

One day to Tidaholm and the mysterious backfiring big flathead.

Oil belongs inside the motor. And pushrods in their tappets..

Headlight mounts need re-thinking.. vibrations suck.

When finally on the road.. Choppers with issues. Snapped clutch wire on my triumph and a ruptured gas tank on the XS. As an added bonus Mr Vehwis' pipes were rubbing against his battery.

This is why we call it Jesus Tape.. 'cuz Jesus saves.

In this pic: blown gasket, electrical failure, ruptured tank (replaced with tank from bike with electrical failure), snapped clutch cable and in the background the place where said snapped cable sent me and the triumph off-road. Quite a compilation, eh?

Meanwhile, elsewhere in Sweden... More blown plugs.

Eero's flathead hates water.

The panhead took a dive in a roundabout, went down on the left side, fucking up the clutch hub. A big thanks goes to all the cool people who helped us source parts (hub, gas tank, fuel tap..) in Tidaholm! You rule!

Mag trouble on the way back to Stockholm... Tinppa scared the poop out of a few Swedish families with his LOUD cursing.

Camping in the ferry terminal's parking garage. Juice had run out of plugs and Eeros li'l flatty had chewed up the rear cylinder, they arrived in the chase car around 5AM..

The reason Mane's pan came home in the back of the chase car.. rear sprocket bolts sheared right off..

Every now and then one has to ask why one puts up with all this

But then one remembers why.
