  1. I put my meter across 85 and 86 and got no reading at all , from that I presumed the relay was dead ? I'll try what you said tomorrow
  2. That's what I was hoping , I just wondered if there was any trickery going on inside them .
  3. The headlight on my new (to me) Yamaha doesn't work (side light is fine) .There is no power at the bulb connector and then I traced to wiring to the fuse box and there is no power there. I suspect it might be the relay at fault as I have power going in and as far as I can tell none coming out. This is the (possible) culprit and Yamaha would like £83.42 for a new one . So could I just use something like this .................... https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ehdis-12VDC-Multi-Purpose-Relay-Standard/dp/B01JBRHG7M/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=1TYQMG92C88A1&keywords=motorcycle%2Bheadlight%2Brelay&qid=1696353837&sprefix=motorcycle%2Bheadlight%2Brelay%2Caps%2C119&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1
  4. Me too , brings out the very worst in people
  5. I did a similar thing to my 1300 Escort van . I put engine from a Mk2 Cortina 1600GT in it. Quick up to 85mph and then it ran out of puff
  6. I can't see how the DBM's would want to interfere with any of us while they've got free reign on your ginger arse
  7. I had one in exactly the same colour Fred. That looks like a GXL or Ghia, mine was just a lowly 1600L
  8. That's seriously impressive how the driver has managed to clear the stream, i'd struggle to do that on a bike
  9. Daytona Yellow, not the best colour for a Capri imo but that's a very nice example
  10. My mate Nick has one, he's not overly enamoured with his yet either. He's had at least 10 Africa Twins (and Transalps ) in the past but he reckons it needs a bit of work to get it up to standard.
  11. He had a Swansea season ticket Marcel .................
  12. I don't think you need to fret Pete, it's gonna take some mega vote switching for you to have a chance
  13. No, I had to go to the clinic once in about 1978 but i was crab free
  14. Ok, my bad. I've jumped the gun. He'll be around on Tuesday @Sofia
  15. Congratulations to @Sofia for winning BOTM . @Pedro will be calling on you tomorrow to thank you personally ..................
  16. Yeah, come on puddle dodger pull yer finger out
  17. Once it gets really cold and the condensation is about I take it inside the house .
  18. Some cracking looking roads there Pete
  19. Some nice cars and bikes there Dave (apart from that godawful Virago). I drove one of those Sumbeam Rapiers back in the day, it was pretty quick thanks to the Holbay engine
  20. Nobody's wineing , your foto iz soooooooooooooo much bitter enyway
  21. I've had one for about four years now. My boss had it in work but wasn't using it so he gave it to me ............
  22. Pedro (Bettencourt) just scored against the Wallabies
