The (Original) Black Bomber thread
Sparrow1:
Must say,
I was recently chatting about my Black Bomber ( with this Winter, that's all I seem to do! ) and others I know of to a chap in a Pub. " Black Bomber lives in a heated garage. Black Bomber Will only come out when it's dry etc" ( well, I get caught out occasionally..)
I felt I was sensing strange looks next to my table and sure enough, I was. The chaps next to me seemed er, 'interested' so I leaned across to them when my mate was getting me a jar and asked them if they were into bikes to put my mind at ease. They aren't but certainly into Cyber security of some sort! 😳 (Only happens to me!) I showed them a picture of my Black Bomber and they visibly relaxed. God, what a world we live in now...

Were you wearing that cap with the suspicious looking leaf on it?
Sparrow1:
I couldn't possibly comment.... ;)

Found this "Flat rate time chart" dated 07,1967 for Black Bomber.

Great to see that Honda Parts Diagram with the Parts list opening on the adjacent page so you can view both at the same time. So simple........it's almost childish !
I used to make sure the Manuals I put together for Compressors (years ago in a far away galaxy) were the same. It took some juggling to get it right....but right they were...when I had finished.
When I started to get involved with 1960's Triumph Twins.........guess what I did........took photocopies of the Manuals/ Parts Lists just so I could rearrange them to show the Assembly Diagram adjacent to the Parts List for that assembly.......not one single assembly was like that in the Triumph Manuals, which helped to form my long held opinion that any Company that didn't give a monkeys about their Dealers and Customers really didn't deserve to stay in business.
Maybe I should have posted this on the 'What get's me angry' thread........LOL.....but if I'd also commented on Triumphs bizarre use of barmy Part Numbers and constantly changing thread forms/ types at odd times over the years, I'd just end up in Hospital !!!!!!
