Bikers' Banter

After seemingly buying a new pressure Washer every couple of years due to various plastic bits breaking, I decided to try and find one that is a bit more robust with brass fittings........... Tried Halfords specials, Clark, Karcher and a fair few others over the years, all plastic crap..... hope this last's a bit longer. 7HP Petrol engine anorl that's as much as the Grom !

That looks like the dogs' dangly bits .
Used to go through a Karcher pressure washer annually when water would freeze inside a joint then crack when it thawed . Bought a Bosch (still plastic crap) but has lasted a few years.

Well I do hope it lasts..... £290 on Ebay if anyone is interested..... there are a few other models in the range, this one is lower range but has 272 Bar and nearly 4000 PSI...... So it should be more than able to wash the Patio.... keep the Wife happy ! (Bosh make good stuff, we always recommend their kitchen Appliances ).

I wouldn't hold out on that pack of drill bits lasting too long though , Aldi special I believe (Workzone) ?

LOL......... I couldn't even begin to imagine the amount of Drill bits I've trashed over the years.........

Speaking of pressure washers, couple of weeks ago i too 3 to the tip. All had issues i couldn't be arsed to try and fix.

Bought a Boshe couple of years ago. Trigger has gone faulty, leaking quite badly. Ordered a new trigger, will be here on 12th.

It's all the Plastic bits mate....... My parents old toilet is 57 years old and never broken as all the important bits are made of Brass and other metal.... good old fashioned engineering...... our toilets are rubbish in our house..... too much plastic and cast metal....... China has a lot to answer for in my book........

Well it stopped raining so I put some petrol and oil in it and pulled the cord......... bugger me backwards, it actually started first pull........ a bit loud but reckon it'll quieten down after a while............ Might have to add a new Yoshi and air filter...... lol.

Get an Akropovic? on it

the akro is 12 times the cost of the Washer....... I'd be happy if it turned it into a Hayabusa.............. lol.....
