Not a patch on Jim's but I'm working on it!

[Big Jim]

Oh no! that wasn't mine, that's John (boy) Walton's doing!

I really fried mine good, it went all green & manky, I had to have it dressed twice a day for 2 weeks. The nurse at work wasn't very pleased, then when I did the second one! you can imagine, she put me through torture! (that's what happens when a woman has power over you!)

[Les Welsher]

but you've to be a HOODIE to burn your leg!!

My exhaust is on the passengers side (DOHC)

Does that mean I have little chance of ever becomming a proper hoodie

 

Though I have to keep reminding my son to watch his leg when he gets out.

Mine's on the passenger side now, it 'nipped' Mutley a little bit whilst we were in France, couldn't really call it a burn though, he's too quick, and got away from it.

you could still do it yet, maybe when working under the bonnet etc.

Mitch

No Sorry! self inflicted wounds are not passable! it's got to be a barbequed leg (or 2) to score on this poll!

Tim and I cuurently have matching burns, his on right calf, mine on left shin . Did mine in North Yorks before I'd had beer so stayed well away after I'd had a shed full. Looking forward to seeing you all again in Donnington when we can compare scars . Bob's Babe

Surely a burn on the leg is self inflicted, it is not like you don't know the exhaust will be hot . I have yet to get anywhere near any gasses getting down the exhaust!!

[Guest mickmellors]

Please can I initiate myself on someone elses exhaust as it will be 17.3 years at current build rate before I can start my engine in my 2B.

 

If I dont get any volunteer hot exhaust donors come forward at Harrogate this weekend I shall have to resort to heating my pipe up with a blowlamp to get the desired effect, results of which will be proudly displayed at Donington in mid-September.

 

 

Just to let everyone know, we did offer our silencers, but he bottled out!

I believe there is a device in the Lakeland Plastics catalogue that's for leg burning. Its between the Parmesan Grater and the handy whisk........

[Guest brookie]

Burn't the outside of my left leg, putting my crook lock on (almost wanted the damm thing nicked at the time).

Then burn't the inside of my right leg getting out .

 

I've got my "Hoodie" mark does that mean I'm now a real "Hoodie", just slow at learning or just into pain ???????????

 

 

Congrats on the "hoodie badge"
