Weather has been great here lately, really odd that it's this warm at this time. Got out on the scooter and snapped a few pics of the local area. Not really worthy of a Ride Report though so here they are ....

Seriously Bob we need to have a chatt...something not right with you since you bought that orange scooter....now your going riding with a knowed cocksucker...did he try to feel your leg or ask to see it ?...I've heard he has a new Welsh boyfriend ..word going around he's tired of American cocks.

 

No, it was a mate of mine down in Somerset who took him out.  I've never met him but he asked Chris if he knew a one-legged rider called Bob.  He was also asking about the Canadian dude with a boyfriend called Billybob

Well what do you know, I have some trail riding mates down in Somerset who were out showing some Americans on the weekend and during the conversation my name came up.  It turns out that one of them was @Beemer Bummer of this parish.

Not a great photo but it's the only one I've got , he's the dude on the left of my mate with his helmet on .  What are the chances of that ???

Played at turd polishing yesterday 😎

IMG_3493.thumb.jpeg.3e9ee1032d6cae57c167b44cfa0b7ee0.jpeg

oh and my hand pump foam bottle shat the bed yesterday.   It’s DOA after six uses, not moaning really it was only £6.99 so I suppose I got my monies worth.    Just ordered a powered replacement from Amazon so we will see how that goes.

Gave it a soaking in ACF to help it survive the winter.   Cleaned up pretty well for 17 years old and 34k miles.   
Adjusted the manual cam chain tensioner, very therapeutic just listening to the chain rattle disappear as you do it.   
Drive chain adjustment hasn’t moved at in the last 2k miles, so just cleaned and lubed it.  
Just gotta change the coolant and It’s ready for the cold.

Finally managed to get over to the Yamaha dealer to see if the bit need is available. Seems not and they were not interested in fixing it in any other way e.g. a bodge.

So, off to buy a small bit of metal tube of some kind to fit in the hole and then apply shit loads of JB Weld to see if that holds it in place. It should do as it’s pretty potent stuff by all accounts.

Once set and cured it’ll be back on with the hose and see if the bastard leaks. Fingers crossed it doesn’t so I can at least part ex it for a new(ish) bike………now don’t worry, I’m not about to start a Pete-style poll! 🤣🤣

So you are going to bodge it and sell it on to some poor unsuspecting person?

Coolant leak but nothing simple like a split hose. If I can fix it with a bit of ingenuity and make sure it works fine I’ll part exchange it for something as new as possible.

If the ‘fix’ doesn’t work properly then it’ll be sold for spares or repairs……….that should  satisfy @Buckster’s holier than thou attitude 🤣🤣🤣

If you can find a slightly smaller diameter pipe that will fit inside the original bit and then metal putty around it then it should hold 👍
