    Am I talented or just a dumbarse?

    The meaning of talented:
    having talent or special ability; gifted

    The meaning of dumbarse:
    a thoroughly stupid person; blockhead.

    I am struggling to decide which is the best word to describe me...

    I have blown up many 2 smokers. Today I thought that I would give blowing up a 4 stroke a go and well what can I say, it worked!

    So while I can say that I have a "special gift" anyone that knows me, knows how many engines I have destroyed. I obviously havent learned anything so does this make me a blockhead?

    ps - Thanks to Deano and F5Dave for all your help today!

    Yep, you are officially an engine block head.
    Ride fast or be last.

    Yes, they're all small bikes (under 200cc's)...

    On the bright side - I have never (yet) had an accident caused by a seizure. Lucky too cause it was on the motorway (again) in the fast lane. Managed to get over to the BP!

    That's what all my mates call me so why not!!


    I digress...

    Yes I know what oil is and how to check the level. Hell I can even ride a bike!! Wont know what has happened until it gets pulled apart. It is all a bit odd this time.... While I was on the overbridge heading North I felt what I thought was a large gust of wind brush over my right shin. Then I went to change downa gear and notice that there was no tension in the clutch lever, almost like the cable had snapped. When I pulled into the BP there was an oil like fluid all over my leg, tyre, seat and side of the bike and it was leaking oily like fluid. The clutch may have gone and thrown something through the engine or maybe the head gasket has blown. I dont think so though as the bike hasnt totally seized and still has compression...
