And lo I did spring forth to the work place this morning and a Ducati part did magically appear and there was much excitement and jollity

F*cking youngsters, if ever there was a shit fashion statement that's the one

It's hard wired Ian

Not quite, if it’s got a coil it doesn’t need a condom

So we see Lionel , your bike is so light it's invisible .............

You have no idea how annoying that is to me Fred beacause I don't think I've ever ridden that

Very nice Fred, what are the O/E tyres , Pirelli Scorpions ?

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

That's what I was hoping , I just wondered if there was any trickery going on inside them .

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

Me too , brings out the very worst in people

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

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

I had one in exactly the same colour Fred. That looks like a GXL or Ghia, mine was just a lowly 1600L

Btw, I totally agree

That's seriously impressive how the driver has managed to clear the stream, i'd struggle to do that on a bike

Daytona Yellow, not the best colour for a Capri imo but that's a very nice example

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.

He had a Swansea season ticket Marcel .................

I don't think you need to fret Pete, it's gonna take some mega vote switching for you to have a chance

No, I had to go to the clinic once in about 1978 but i was crab free

Ok, my bad. I've jumped the gun. He'll be around on Tuesday @Sofia
