They have been sitting now for a couple of years since I took them to the bike shop and there they were cleaned and lubricated first. I might try and order the parts (sprockets) and tools on the Lazada link in this thread. ????

Yes, maybe 20 years old. I forget ....'but it seems like yesterday.' Of course wifey wants a new one, while I want to fix them. Maybe convert them to ebikes?

Hello, I have taken pics of both the bikes as if I order parts for one then for the other as well. Are these pictures anymore help with what I should order? I origionally bought them in Pattaya from the bike shop on Sukumvit Rd near Na Glua.

There's a match for Elvis.

Prolly (sic) should have read my dribble. ???? I know it was diesel, but don't know if the deisel is injected. Some people do come on this forum to try and help.

Thank you very much for the comments. I'll get my bike out first and take some better pictures. The problem with mine is that all gears can't be selected and difficult to change gears. I live in Isaan near Mukdahan. I don't mind replacing things if I know what to replace. More pics coming. ????

I bought it at the Mukdahan hidden market and not sure we have a gun shop up here.

Moderator... can you put this in the bikes section please. We have 2 bikes that a bike shop said can't be fixed as both the Shimano gear changes are worn out. One bike is a Diamondback and the other a Talera. Both about 10 + years old. I want to fix them and need some advice. I think I need to replace the Shimano SIS and need advice on where to buy the parts or any advice you can think of. Attached some pics but not all that clear. Thanks

Not sure about the desiel, but it could be an injector problem. With benzine engines you can get an additive to add to the fuel tank that cleans the injectors. Also you can buy an engine analyser that plugs in probably somewhere under the dash and then you will get a readout of problems. If you search the internet you will be able to find a workshop manual for your car. I know all this cause I bought a second hand Jazz that developed an intermittant problem and I changed ERG, fuel filter, cleaned injectors, replaced spark plugs and leads ++, and it was the ECU (or engine computer). So if you buy the engine analyser and workshop manual, should be good to find the problem.

I have what looks like a 45 replica bb pistol. Not really used it, just oiled and cleaned. How do you know how much gas to put in it? From what I remember, the one time I used it the glass balls didn't come out straight from the barrel but at an angle. I presumed this was because of low gas, but don't know how much is correct. Thanks

Boy, girl or non-binary? I go for non-binary. ????

This is what you need, a gas log fire. Nearly time to fire it up again, that's after I move all the wifey thinggies. Everytime a space is not used it gets covered in pot plants and things. Same with the outside BBQ. ????

I can and do. ????

I think it could have all been done in 1 day but this arrangement was organised by the Dr and hospital, so it suited me. The hospital/medical/chemist actual cost for Thursday/Friday was B20000. So the B40000 was the hospitals rough estimation. Dr removed one small polyp from the stomach and confirmed Diverticula in the Sigmoid and Ascending colons. He said I could have been losing a cup of blood when the pockets in the colon became infected, so that's probably why I felt off some times. I can't remember exactly what he said, but more fibre in the diet seemed to be the answer. I see him in a couple of weeks. Thanks again Sheryl.

Follow up report. Thursday travelled to KKU and had: blood test, Covid test, X-ray and EKG. For next day had to report to 4th floor of AHC (After Hours Clinic) at 0830. Stayed at KKU hotel and had a small meal at the KKU hotel. 0300 started the 4 liters of water and medicine to clear the insides. Had the procedures, no problems and all very professional and supportive. Dr Phisan visited later with wife and explained the findings. Allowed out after 2 hours of recovery, walked to carpark and wifey drove home. Overall a good experience. If you have to go for an Endoscopy and/or colonascopy and live near KKU I would recommend the AHC and Dr Phisan. ????

Well organised store room. Love to know how they get duty free orders from China.

Looks like he's on the same diet that Marlon Brando was on ...WW&S.

Is it the same two girls behind the satellite dish?

Mine was during a cricket match and hit on the pad with a fast bowl. Couldn't run after that and got a runner. After the game and I cooled down was when it really hurt, so off to the dr. and broken knee diagnosis, then leg in plaster for 6 weeks.

Lotus's ....say no more.

I was thinking a broken Pattelar. That's what I had with a broken knee. Me and the Nordic Walking sticks this morning. ????

I broke a knee years ago and it took a while to heal, but it did and I got back to jogging. Now (much later) I do about 5 km Nordic Walking nearly everyday. Takes some of the pressure off my back and other knee scar tissue problems. There are videos on Nordic Walking if you search. Because you use walking poles, by changing the height of the poles or where the poles hit the ground, you can change the muscle target group and stride length. Because you use your arms, upper body and lower body, you are supposed to burn twice as many calories as normal walking. There's also Aquaaerobics. Helps if you have a pool or your area pool has classes. There are hour sessions on YouTube channels and many free. You can do HIIT Aqua and buy some water dumbells and a flotation belt for the deep end. I find that 45 min Advanced Aqua with dumbells makes me sweat and gives a great workout. Another thing you may check is that you don't have too much scar tissue growing around the knee. You would probably not have this with a broken knee. A good physio knows how to break this down.

What is a power 'frequency converter' and why do they put them in aircons, refrigerators etc.? Do you mean an inverter?

What did the nut say to the screw? "No! Not without a washer you don't."

Had been having bowel and stomach habits changing. Sheryl recommended Associate Professor Dr Phisan at Khon Kean University Hospital (KKU), After Hours Clinic. Saw Dr Phisan last week and booked in for a Covid/EKG/Blood test Thursday and Endoscopy and Colonoscopy on Friday. Cost for medicine and all tests B 40000. KKU After Hours Clinic is a beautiful new modern facility and part of Khon Kean University Hospital. Initially que up to get a dr. visit number (Thai/Farang ID card is accepted and actually works in their computer system). Vital signs checked, then wait for Dr, about 1300 hr. I already had results of a complete blood test and stomach cancer check, which were all in spec. Saw Dr. Phisan, checked me over and made my scope appointment and chemist gave medicine. There is a large area to sit while you wait, food trucks and parking near the hospital with a shuttle bus connection. KKU also has a new hotel close by for around B 900/night (connected by shuttle bus). Ideal for us living 2.5 hours from the hospital. So plan A is to drive to the hotel Thursday, shuttle to the hospital and do the hospital tests, then Friday have the proceedure and Wifey drive home.
