A good, old fashioned rant

There are any umpteen threads on every bike forum about starting problems, poor throttle response, engines cutting out and its all down to electrickery or in other words the EU (night!) Emission Standards. In order to achieve these manufacturers have had to replace the good old reliable carb with computer controlled fuel injection, a catalytic converter and run a much leaner Air-Fuel Ratio than the ideal 15:1, sometimes as lean as 17:1. And now this from the Daily Telegraph on Monday

Britain’s domestic vacuum cleaners will become less powerful under European Union rules designed to cut energy use that come into force next year.
New machines will be banned from having motors that exceed 1,600W from September 2014, and they will be limited to 900W from 2017.
Currently the average vacuum cleaner on the market has a 1,800W motor, and some use as much as 2,200W of power


Our cretins (aka Government) are going along with all this ecoshit but its just an exercise in complete futility when you balance the EU's efforts against the fact that China and India are opening 4 new coal fired power stations EVERY EFFING WEEK!!

"What do we want? Carburettors. When do we want them? Now. What do we want? No catalytic converters, no ECU's, no EGS, 2000W vacuum cleaners etc etc "
 
so vacuum cleaners will become uselesss, get ya new Dyson quick folks
 
I think it's a great idea.

Reduce the power of a vac cleaner by half, rendering in useless & having to use it for three times as long. More revenue for the energy & government coffers...

What, like talking bollix is not important? :whistle:

Well yes, but there's talking bollix and then there's talling bollix about womens stuff

Surely talking bollix abouf man stuff, like what type of air to put in our tyres is far more important
