    Big Ears ?

    Yep.....I've flicked the mirror switch to let bikes filter a few times......just coz I'm stuck in the cage.......
  2. The best thing I did with my Speedy was to get it dyno'd......cost a couple of hundred quid, but it runs so much better now......got the SAI and O2 sensors disabled too, whilst he was about it...... Although I wasn't looking for any power increase the dyno setup increased the power from 112bhp to 122bhp. ....and the torque from 66ft/lb to 76ft/lb......so, some useful increases......
  3. Looks like Hungry Hoggs is back in the running ........
  4. Triumph Sprint/Daytona/etc is a 14mm clutch master cylinder too.....which may fit.....https://www.triumphparts.gbr.cc/product.php/6713665/
  5. If you're using TuneECU to load the map, there's a button on there to reset the TPS.....so you don't have to do the heat cycle thing...... And, yes, I would reset the TPS before running it with the new map......
  6. Welcome to TMBF mate. .....pop over to the Newbies section and introduce yourself to the guys when you can. ....... TBH, at 17 I wouldn't bother with the A1 test unless you need to travel on motorways or take pillion passengers.......otherwise I'd just do the CBT and ride 125cc bikes on L-plates and then go for the A2 when you're 19.......
  7. I used to be......but I'm much more sensible these days......
  8. Not the sort of thing you want to hear, mate......hope you get sorted ok.
  9. Welcome to TMBF mate. .....pop over to the Newbies section and introduce yourself to the guys when you can. ....... Give these folks a call and see if they can help......https://www.digital-speedos.co.uk/
  10. Unfortunately, no matter how badly you feel about it, the decision has been made......so I'd just take it on the chin and rebook. The good thing is that you know your riding is up to the required standard, so you should breeze it next time......
  11. Well, at least the other place is open on Sundays....10 - 4.......so, by default, MoreCoffeeCo it is then......
  12. Lol......A biker meeting place shut on Sundays......
  13. See if you can persuade a bit of liquid soap between the grip and the bar.....
  14. Shouldn't have thrown the towel in Thanks for organising this Bob hopefully I can make it too! I went to edit it.......and then remembered......
  15. Bonniebird is busy on 21st.......so Sunday 22nd Oct to Hungry Hogs?....... If this is ok for everyone can one of the Mods edit the title to include the date and venue?.....cheers...
  16. I'm guessing it's these things?......http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/100-Set-Moto-Bullet-Connector-3-9mm-Male-Female-Wire-Terminals-Insulation-Cover-/182517724137?fits=UKM_Make%3AHonda&hash=item2a7ee773e9:g:6EMAAOSw3utY5Zmz.
  17. Hungry Hoggs on the a47 between Leicester and Peterborough....https://m.facebook.com/power.lunches.1 ....or More Coffee Co in Melton Mowbray. ...http://www.morecoffeeco.com/motorbikes--cycles. 21st or 22nd October? What think you all?
  18. I think you'd be better off running them through a relay which is controlled by the ignition circuit.....less chance of leaving them on and draining the battery.....and less chance of overloading one of the other circuits.....
  19. And also check that the caliper "floats" correctly......I've seen them where the pins that the caliper floats on are completely seized. I'd be inclined to remove the caliper and give it a thorough overhaul..... Pads seem to depend on whether it is a double sided swing arm or single sided......For reference....http://www.worldoftriumph.com/triumph_motorcycle_parts_locator?block_01=&block_02=100066663-0-2&block_03=13108
  20. Years back all chains were split link.......but they're a bit rarer these days. Don't buy an Ognibene chain......The one on my Speedy is awful......it's not done so many miles, but it's got so many tight spots on it it's near impossible to set the slack correctly.......sprockets are still ok......so I think a new chain and new boots are required over the winter break......
  21. Sounds like you've lost the sump plug or oil filter.....or put a hole in one of the crankcase or sump......
  22. Don't over think it mate.......just try to relax......and look where you want to go.....look at the ground and that's where you'll end up...... Good luck......
  23. Over qualified!.......
  24. Tango

  25. Accessories.........retail therapy!.....
