Walter
Come on haven't you been reading all the tech stuff here, steel is steel.
No one is interested past that.
Except for the other three techno members and 3 other memebers that have contacted me about their Maico frames which I have already repaired one.

I only selected a Kawasaki because they make a nice note.

This thread has been like a TNA Explosion tag team match Technos vers VMX.
I wonder when Hulk Hogan will weigh in.

How does funny as shit sound Jerry?
By the way mate, I got good news regarding my ankle. My new surgeon has me booked in for the first of two operations on July 2. This one is to get rid of some calcium build up around the joint and to surmise whether a full replacement or a fusion is feasible. My knee got worse though when I slipped on a mossy driveway in the pissing rain on Sunday and tweaked it again. I'm hobbling like an old cripple. Hows your knee going mate?

Man, Jerry I am impressed. You call and he comes. You have more power than Commissioner Gordon!

Do your duty Firko…

I think I might be on the same wave length as Firko somehow. Knees recovering slowly from arthroscope (slower than I thought it would be to be honest) Twanged it bit the other night crawling down an embankment in the dark  looking for a patient that was ejected from a vehicle in a high speed prang. Choosing not to ride this w/e at RD1 VCM at Yarragon as travelling OS in a couple of weeks and if I rooted it up again I might have a bit of trouble keeping the  marriage going if you know what I mean. Thanks for asking mate. Cheers Jerry PS I tried to get Hoony to ride Fang the Sang at Yarragon but he came up with some lame excuse about not being able to get there but he did offer me a ride on his Honda sometime.

I love Leopard Tanks from way back  . Its bit like driving silly cars , exept you dont get wet . So an XL  with a Leopard or Centurion will be just fine . The rod you can keep or give  to Firko .  so my day wasnt waisted after all  ;)

Sorry but it is a Panzer tank. Can you imagine Maico constructing their chassis from inferior Allied steel. How dare you!!

So my German is as good as my accuracy with decimal points. Not doing too well today - oh well there is always tomorrow [I hope].

The only other word I recognise is 'schnell' and that is only because of Hogans Heroes.  :D
