If it's a re-run of July's meet, you'll all go different ways and the Northern lot will cry off if there's any sign of a grey cloud in the sky -

Snoopy replied to gixxergal's topic in Biking events
Yes, that's what it is about him... I knew there was just something about his whole aura, the way he's put up on this pedestal, thats it, he's being shaped into this schumacher clone! So glad I can't stand F1, lol, they have 2 too many wheels for one thing! -

DaveH & Andy Ninja... Cheers guys, I have added both to the main map. Great links. I only found out the other day that MFN has ended for this season, whats about those 2 pubs? Do they carry on past Autumn?

Anyone know if there is still a bike meet here, and on what night? I used to have a mate who lived in Alfreton, and I remember him saying something about a place at Oakerthorpe, but I never actually managed to get there. Anyone know where exactly it is or when it is?
-
Love to. You know anyone who can babysit for the day?
-
Aye, tis our little RS lol, liking the 'match' idea at the minute
-
the petrol cap doesn't fit properly. well, it DOES fit, but it doesn't lock. This isn't my bike btw, lol Not sure if it makes a sucking sound or not. And breather pipes what? Sorry, lost track after "good blow"
-
Interesting point..... Not sure about that, will have to do some reading up I reckon. But on the face of it, it would appear to run fine under gravity when full, and then gets starved after not very much mileage. Certainly sounds a feasable option! Another thing which makes me think its being starved of fuel is the plug was dry after trying to start it. Would I be wrong to think that at least 'some' fuel would make the plug slightly wet?
-
I don't think it has a vacuum pipe, or if it does, I haven't spotted it yet, and it wasn't ever attached to the tank in the first place. I know the fuel filter in the carb is clean coz its brand new, but I think there is a filter in the tap too. although I'm not certain about that. The bike seems ok with a full tank, but at anything less than full, it 'appears' to be starved of fuel.
-
Petrol tank is off the bike, sat on a workbench and is virtually full of fresh fuel. When I turn the tap, petrol pours out. With me so far? Is it in anyway possible for fuel to not come out when the tank is back on the bike, connected up to the carbs? Any possible chance an airlock or a split hoses somewhere 'could' prevent fuel getting from the tank to the carbs? Just after ideas at the mo.
-
Just looking out me window and rememberd I need to get some more engine oil for me trusty steed. Got to thinking rather than calling at the local shop and picking up whatever he's got in, I wondered which oils people use and swear by, and which ones are best avoided?
-
have to get her test booked and get her a 'proper' bike. THATS what we need to do, lol She lusts after a thundercat, always has done, always will do, won't be happy till she's got one. so thats it, RS is going to fund test, then next year, work our asses off to get Mrs Snoops a bike. I keep telling her if I can have a GSXR750 or Fireblade, she is totally and completely more than welcome to have my CBR600, but she won't have any of it
