Shit that's loud

Jake Dixon managed it in Moto2

Nicely done sir.

Don't trust mine to get to the shop and back at the moment.

I could only get a finger or 2 on them but didn't seem to make any difference. I've no doubt it'll show itself again at the most inconvenient time.

Earache has just reminded me of this I got sent Saturday morning, been giggling about it since.

Should think 8 inches isn't as bad as what you could get.

Next carb fitted and alls well with that and the fork leak. Must of had a dodgy seal or something. Got out for a 20 mile run and all was well until it coughed and spluttered to a halt. Not petrol as the rev counter was dropping to nothing and back up. Pulled over to the side of the road and pushed the button and it started again. Pushed and pulled all the connections I could give my hands on but sat there ticking over so rid home. Something to get into later. Couple of pics while out, this is the old town pump in somerleyton and the next is just an old good looking barn with a thumb for perspective, ,both on the same road.

And the vehicle's in the middle of the road.

Good back drops this month but I went for Freds dirty Honda on the type of trails I like.

After getting that carb back on I remembered why I took that old carb off. Bloody thing always ran like it was getting air in from somewhere other than it should.

Is this what our new fuel is doing to our bikes? Got this out of the tank with the tap out and shaking it about That gasket's never going back in. I've used the body of a spare carb I had with the new needle valve just to rule out any probs with the seat.

Tank off for me too, find out why reserve did nothing. Suspect this crap fuel coupled to the bike going nowhere over winter.

That's what happens after a couple of beers, get frisky and bang the misses in odd positions. Hope you're feeling better soon.

P6 Rover is now done. Found a broken wire, once repaired the Alternator is charging again. New tank sensor fitted and working after some probs getting the pipes on. Dominator fork leg stripped, cleaned and reassembled with gen bushes and seals. Got another float needle to fit, can't wait to take the carb off again. Watch this basted space.
