Yep my thoughts aswell. Already booked hotel and tickets.

https://www.welshroadrace.com This was announced yesterday at the bike show.

Great project,shout up when you are at the Pod,would like to see that. Guy I used to work with built a drag bike out of a Fireblade. Slammed it to the floor,made his own swingarm. On a pretty std 900cc eng could run 9.9. Used to go to RWYBs at Pod few years ago with my 3litre V6 Cavalier. Spent hours modifying it ,run a best of 14.4. In 1984 with a couple of mates built a Datsun 1200 with Rover V8 then 5.3 Olds V8,ran best 13.7. Great fun.

That sucks. All they will get from me is a quid in cash for a cuppa.

If it was a genuine low mileage bike wouldn't all 3 owners keep documentation to prove it? If your gut is telling you its suspicious,trust it. There are plenty more gixxers for sale,wait until the depths of winter and get more for your money.

I went to the Waterman a few times back in the day,went along to the Hatton world replacement once,no-one there Or I got the wrong place/day Usually go to Jack's hill cafe but up for another venue when it's not cold or salt everywhere....maybe March? In Rugby BTW.

Good luck. I did Movember a couple of years ago,I really don't suit a moosetache : So instead this year did distinguished gentleman's ride which is linked to Movember. Did the Coventry run on my GT380 from the Triumph factory at Hinckley to Cov transport museum.

Been to both loads. Food better at Super Sausage imo. Jack's hill have bike nights first Friday of each month,always good turnout.

Thought question 10 was ambiguous,depends on what speed you are doing?

Are the inlet rubbers ok?Not perished. Have you tried balancing the carbs?

Could have been a scene from Father Ted

If you do a lot of miles on it,worth considering fitting a Scottoiler.

We had a caravan for 10 years while kids were growing up,it got nicked 11 years ago that put an end to it. Make sure you use security on the van, even while you are away. Don't park under trees,after rain the drops will continue to drip on the roof which can be annoying. Find a site with good showers and washing up facilities. Some sites charge for showers which can add up over a week. Enjoy watching noobies attempting to reverse and put up an awning

Might get along to this,just up the road from me.

Dont know your bike specifically but it looks very similar to the clutch operating arm on my GT380. That's looks like its a return spring for the arm.

Took a trip there today on the R1with a couple of guys from work. Watched a power boat water skiing race...which looked safe About 230 mile round trip,left Rugby at 8 am,back home at 3.30pm. Not a massive turn out of bikes today,weather put paid to that

Might get along to this. Does all the jap crap have to go sit in the corner?

Called in there yesterday with the Mrs,yeah I know spoiling her,was surprised how busy it was for a weekday. GT380 is primed and ready to go.

This weekend at super sausage cafe nr Towcester and a number of other dates at different locations around the country during the summer. Test rides available. https://bikes.suzuki.co.uk/news-events/?isEvents=true

They would need to be licensed to offer credit ,if they are a professional bunch they should just say ,sorry can't do that. If they did agree,I would be very wary. Do you really know these people well enough to want to owe them money? Assume usual sources of borrowing money;bank,family and friends are off the table? If so afraid you will just have to be patient and save up.

Assuming the new sprockets are the same size as the old ones,Just count the number of links in the old chain. It will have stretched as MB said so laying them side by side may be misleading.

Should be the three dimensions stamped onto the end face of the outer cage,outer diameter,inner diameter and width.There can be other codes aswell for seals etc. If nothing is present,measure the bore of the swing arm,diameter of the shaft and width of the bearing, any good bearing shop should be able to help. The bearing sizes are normally in round numbers. dont know where you are but I have used these before for a random gearbox bearing on a Nissan Sylvia http://premierbearing.co.uk/

Saturday 10th June. http://www.daventrybikefest.co.uk/

Happened to me in Milton Keynes. Had to pay the fine, but appealed and got a refund. Lesson learned and always double check ticket after closing the doors now.

Last time I blew my top was at a biker who was thrashing a gsxr600 around our estate,doing probably 60-70 mph past our house. This went on for a few weeks,I could hear him blasting around the neighbourhood nearly every night and weekend. One day I heard him approaching,I was just going to get his number plate,but I lost it,stopped him in the road and gave him a right bollocking. He didn't say a word and sheepishly rode off never to see him again.
