You've got time to get another of the same motors & bolt it on to make 1000cc Don't know if you've done any part of the route? But i'm sure you'll/everyone will enjoy.Oh forgot to say earlier, can everyone please tank up with fuel before meeting at Rivington. This will ensure that no one needs fuel shortly after setting off & we can all fuel up together as we all need to later.Please pass this on, thanks Quote

dragolith Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Should we create a contact number list? In case of no shows/seperations/crashes etc? Quote
GazW Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Should we create a contact number list? In case of no shows/seperations/crashes etc? How would we go about doing that? Is it the contacts group in user panel? Quote
dragolith Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 There used to be something when I was on here years back...you need to get permissions allocated to acces it or something... Quote
Susieque Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 If you can't access the contacts section, then PM Stu or techno & they'll set it so you can Quote
dragolith Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 I just found it, and I still have access. My number is on there and it is corrrect. Quote

Graham Posted March 27, 2012 Author Posted March 27, 2012 We could just swap afew numbers at Rivington before setting off? Looks like there'll be around 10 ish (so far) so not too many to cause many problems. Quote
hammer5 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 5+ from the aprilia forum, a mate & I + meeting another mate halfway round. And whoever from here...What's the route & timings? My mates got to come down from Carlisle & meet us somewhere.. Quote
hammer5 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Should we create a contact number list? In case of no shows/seperations/crashes etc? No shows, no worries. Seperations, we stop & go back. Crashes f**kin hope not. Quote
dragolith Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Exactly, I hope so too. but being my first REAL ride in 2.5 years, if I were to crash, you guys might be a lifeline... Quote
hammer5 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Exactly, I hope so too. but being my first REAL ride in 2.5 years, if I were to crash, you guys might be a lifeline... Always beneficial to think positive.. Quote

dragolith Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Well I got the repair kit, so I will have a bash at fixing this tonight...if not, wont be riding on Sunday Anybody got any tips for puncture repair? The bit Im not sure about is getting the nail out, its quite deep... Quote

The bit Im not sure about is getting the nail out, its quite deep... How come you want to do the puncture yourself, instead of taking it to be repaired? Just asking as if you did take it to be repaired, you know you'll be out Sunday Quote
dragolith Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 I am getting it repaired. I need to plug it so I can ride it to the Garage!She is getting a 16k Service, plus oil/air filter, Oil change, Fluid changes and 2 new michelin pilot Road 2 tyres. If she is not ready Saturday, i will be out Sunday on the loan Bike, which is a brand new CBR 600F... Quote
hammer5 Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 Don't do rain, I'll do any of the routes mind Quote
