buggerit

im gutted i will miss this one, will there be any more or it just a once a year Run?

nice one matey see you on the road!

looks good matey im trying to get my cb500 looking nice. only cost me £400 but ive spent a few more just getting it half decent. will be good to see your final piccys

im interested in all ride outs just waiting on getting the bike back together so out of action for the next week - 2 weeks but after that im out. wales and Yorkshire interest me ive already done the glasson docks to lakes route.

as everyone else has said, i had that issue a few weeks ago, turned out the battery for me but when i tested it off the bike the optimate said good. the voltage was 12.3 if i remember but when i got a new battery it was around 13.5v fully charged. on the bike at around 5,000 revs think it hit around 14.9v or so. think really its going to be the reg/rec as your batterys new but you could check your wiring's ok after that alternator but im pretty sure reg/rec will sort it and their cheap and easy to fit.

just getting use to the site mate sorry i missed this, wouldnt mind tagging along if you dont mind a cb500 behind you, if i loose you i can meet up later

Hi, was also at bikesafe today with al, my son. I'm the old fart that rides a tourer and doesn't keep up over the tops. You don't give any sign of seniority, but if you have to take your kids swimming you're a lot younger than me. Anyway I'm in stockport, only 10mins round the 60 from you.

hi there mate, im 33 lol kids are making me feel older though by the day more than welcome any time. ive just pm my mobile to a few of the lads to keep in touch ill send you mine so we can keep in touch when to meet ect.

In urmston, need to get miles under my belt, give me a shout if your going for a play!

 

right near me mate im in eccles must be about 2 miles lol. my brothers got a bandit too he might come out if hes not polishing the bloody thing all day told him to just stick it on a stand in his room!

Sale over here, there's two of us. If I'd have seen this earlier you could have come along today, we went over to Doncaster for the Bikesafe show. it was heaving!!

bugger never mind i had to take my two girls out for swimming lessons so im stuck till 11:30am at the minute need to get it changed to a saturday!! ill pm you my mobile if you like along with the lad from urmston and the others. i get paid next friday so if anyone fanices it maybe we can plan something!

the old nsr 125s are nice my brother had one. usually can get one for a round £800 on ebay might be worth a haggle. i was in the same boat i only had a small budget in the end i had to settle for doing a bit of work to it over time. probably spent a few quid extra on it now but it got me back on the road.
