210mph

[Snev]

from a 63cc two stroke........ After many years fighting a losing battle against Nature, I have finally decided to buy a Leaf blower !!! anyway, it's got a 4hp engine and blows at up to 210mph.

Sorry, It was all I could think of to say on here......

Will competitive leaf blowing become "a thing"?
I have booked a mobile valeter to come and clean my lovely Striple and ACF50 it for me. I have just enough energy to ride it, but not enough to spare to get it back to the immaculateness it is used to, and it hurts me to see it dirty.
He uses one of those warm air dryer jobs and I'm wondering if I might invest in one for myself. I no longer have the compressor which was so useful for blow drying the bikes.
How about you try the leaf blower on your bikes? Maybe it could do the same job, although with all that power it might blow the Grom over, so maybe not such a good idea after all.

Ha, You could just use a hair dryer..... I will be trying out this new toy tomorrow, it's a bit of a monster at 13 KGs but it's a back mounted one with a hand grip throttle and long nozzle.... i have to get some petrol and Two stroke oil today.... haven't told Psyco about it yet as she doesn't like me buying toys !!! still at least the trillions of leaves and nuts won't all end up in the house so that might cheer her up a bit..... ~hat's a Grom again ?????

Job Done..... what normally takes half a day with a power washer, took less than half an hour all with the glorious smell of Two Stroke !!!! might just have to buy some Castrol R for next time......

That's not a new toy. It's an efficient, time saving tool.

I've inherited a smart meter here. The hairdryer is the most expensive gadget I own!
