Ciao from Athens, Greece

[AnnaGR]

Well this is not very difficult LuFo R, we are very close!!! I think we can make it happen..

[AnnaGR]

hi Anna welcome in our club,what's up in greece,you got a pretty car, got any mods under the hood ?

Hi massimo, well not much ..simota intake system, handmade exhaust system, koni suspension kit(want to change them..not good at all ) I am thinking about k sport , front brakes (dischi CTF-Pastiglie freno galfer), upper strut bar, and lower tie bar... and waiting for your comments ...hoping one of my friend is going to make a swap and I will take his motor of 125hp..and this is something good, instead of 90hps I have now..and I will hear the sound of the VTEC!!!

Anna, I'm planning to visit your country in September.

I've never been to Greece before, and I have no idea which places are better. I'm not looking for the usual tourist places anyone here in Italy talks about and don't know any Greek, either, so nobody can really advise me. Except, now, you and you friends of HHC.

I will travel by motorcycle and places with the following features will be preferred:

1) Twisty roads
2) Sea
3) Mild weather (not too hot!)
4) No tourists - discos - noise. I don't care much about night life: I'm coming to Greece to enjoy Greek nature and sea, not bars. We have bars in Italy, too.
5) Great nature - landscapes
6) Art

I would prefer the mainland better than the islands nearby, since I don't want to spend my holidays (12days) queuing for tickets, waiting for ferries, queuing to embark, fastening the bike, unfastening the bike and queuing to disembark. I might consider (and perhaps I will) getting on one or two islands, why not, but - all things considered - I'm planning a motorcycle journey, not a cruise.

Any advice, of any kind, will be greatly appreciated (about places to see, museums to visit, cities to spend some time in, restaurants, hotels - bed&breakfasts - hostels - campings and facilities of any kind. Everything).

Thank you very much!

P.s.: ovviamente vale per tutti: chiunque conosca posti belli e selvaggi in Grecia che non siano le solite (e piene di Italiani) Santorini, Ios, Rodi e compagnia bella si faccia avanti.

ok! see you on summer 2008!

[AnnaGR]

ok!! deal!!

RandaMk4 I sent you a pm

[massimo]

well its a good swap(no so good as a b16)but for sure you'll fill the difference,but to get the best of it you need at least headers,air filter and a modified computer ; if you empty the kat a make a straight pipe you'll get a good pull on highways speed(110-120 downshift in third and bang!!).I did it my self and i was surprised of the difference!!

[arispeed]

Kalosorizo tin AnnaGr sto italiko forum!Eimai foititis sti Romi kai grammenos sto italiko hondaclub......!!!!Eimai katoxos enos civic vti eg6.....kalosorises kai psila tin elliniki simaia panta kai pantote!!!!

Scusate per il non comprensibile greco ma visto che una persona greca ha scritto nel nostro forum ho voluto dare pure il mio saluto...Sono appena rientrato in italia dopo le vacanze in grecia...VISITATE IL MIO PAESE PER VEDERE A PARTE LE SPLENDIDE ISOLE DELLE MACCHINE MODIFICATE IN QUALSIASI MODO...Li vedrete che significa HONDA e non solo!!!

[AnnaGR]

Geia sou arispeed, i simaia einai panta psila!!

massimo thanks for your advise I will definetely keep them in mind.
I know that it would be better a swap to b16 but I believe that this is something too..especially now that I don;t have a lot of money to spend on it
But I really cannot cut the kat..I think that this is not right for the enviroment ( a little romantic but...)

after 70 or 80 k the kat is not working anymore because is full of the shit getting out of the engine, so you should changin it (nobody does that) with a new one very expensive! i know you're right but the worst pollution is not from our cars but from the bulding's heating and those factories all over the world Beppe Grillo rulez!!

[RandaMk4]

Beppe Grillo rulez!!

Hahahaha! Massimo, mi hai piegato

Però Anna ha ragione: io anche sono contrario a skatalizzare per lo stesso motivo. Pensa se lo facessero tutti...

Dire che le caldaie inquinano di più è un po' nascondersi dietro un dito, o no?

English translation 4 Anna - I said that no matters if the worst pollution is coming from the exhausts or not: it doesn't justify removing the kat. Beppe Grillo is a famous nice Italian comedian who fights environment and anti - globalization battles (well, said like this might appear a little simplicistic, indeed).

se mi conoscessi di persona ti spezzeresti in due sono un buffone di corte , comunque rimane il fatto che ogni anno si inventano euro 1 euro 2 euro 1000 x farti un esempio oggi mi compro la civic ed e' euro4 e vado in giro come mi pare ,il prox anno escono le euro 5 e sicuramente quando ci sara' il blocco del traffico le euro 4 non circoleranno come e' adesso per le euro3 questo significa che in un anno la mia macchina e' diventata un cesso ambulante spargitore di mexxa come e' possibile; poi pero' ci sono quelli con le auto di interesse storico che scorrazzano come gli pare perfino nelle zone ztl!! ma quelle non inquinano ?(cinquini in primis ce ne so un bilico in giro!!)lo so che hai ragione sul fatto di non togliere il kat .La cosa che mi manda in bestia e' che ci fanno due palle sull' inquinamento e poi qui da me ( ostia) stanno sbragando una pineta per fare case!!boh! non capiro' un cacchio io

Purtroppo hai ragione al 100%; anche a me fa imbestialire 'sta cosa dell'euro 1 - euro n, ma purtroppo questo rientra nelle strategie di marketing delle grandi aziende, negli accordi che questi fanno sottobanco con i governi (tutti, di sx e di dx, italiani e non) e - non ultima cosa - nell'ignoranza dei politici e della gente. Il Cayenne Turbo del cumenda di turno inquina meno della mia Prelude o della tua CRX? Noi automobilisti (e motociclisti, eh) siamo sfruttati e munti credo più di qualsiasi altra categoria. Hanno riempito l'Italia di questi merdoni a gasolio che ci soffocheranno col PM10; le macchine coi kat che vanno a farsi benedire ci ammazzeranno col benzene. Non era meglio il piombo tetraetile? Oppure questi pensano che qui si cambia una macchina all'anno?

In buona sostanza ci rapinano e ci prendono pure per il culo. A Napoli si dice "cornuti e mazziati".

anna I'm very astonished for the bad situation that lives Greece in this period...
I know about the 52 poor people who died cause the fires...
My prayers gone for you and all the Greek people... Be strong!

[AnnaGR]

Well things here are very bad, we have 62 people burned and died due to this fire..which was not an accident..my own house nearly got burned too..
We have full villages disappeared from the map..
If you can only imagine this, one man died in the sea because he did not know how to swim when he run from the fire to the sea!!!

We have almost the 25% and more of our woods and trees burned and people with no houses and no money..( and even not a second t-shirt to wear)..We just hope for the best and hope that we will not get hit by a deadly virus or something after those so many animals that are still burning in the woods..and also lets hope that this was not a plan for more houses and villas.

It is an action which was made by stupid m...f... heart less people and I just hope that if they even find them they should burn them alive.
I could keep on writing for hours, but I think that I will stop here..Greece has a serious problem at the time,maybe the biggest in her nearest history..
