The mod takes about 10 minutes per hose, and that's being very slow and careful about it. Not really an issue.
... all landings are in fact controlled crashes, and any crash you can walk away from is a good landing. The definition of a good pilot is a man with the same number of landings as take-offs.

A correct challenge from Mr. Way2Go. You now have 34 seconds on the subject "ABS Flexies", starting now.

Nah, seriously, every night at 18.30, there is a comedy show on radio 4. My favourite is "I'm sorry I haven't a clue".

other reasons I like radio 4, are there are no commercials, and no inane pop music, from talentless ass-holes. In other words, radio for the thinking person!

They are staunchly traditional, they even finish the day with the national anthem......does anyone remember what that sounds like anymore?

Bugger, see, a thread that actually stayed on topic, has been thrown wildly off topic because I mentioned it had stayed on topic...

Shouldn't have said anything at all.....

Strangely, I'm just old enough to remember that! (1977) There were all these songs about the jubilee, and I can remember having a street party.

I still have my silver half crown, that all children were given!

in a blatent attempt to drag this back on topic:

Bugger.

Yeovil Motor factors have drawn a blank on BX +ABS flexies. Apparently every single aftermarket supplier show a M10 x 1.0 (M10 fine) thread at the pipe union, which means they are wrong. On top of that, on contacting all these suppliers, they don't have any anyway.

Ah well. If anyone needs 1/2/any number and can't get hold of them, I'll mod Non-ABS ones.

That's a great way to get back on topic David; now that shows you to be much more worthy of the title "true saviour of BX's" than the PP. 8) :D
