jimsoon Posted June 28, 2009 Author Share Posted June 28, 2009 Sounds good to me! 9.30 then?So scarey I couldn't really see but caught up a car that was doing 35 I went and took it not seeing the corner further up, was in a bit hot and hit the rear brake, not much happened so I pulled the front, and it sat up, missed the bollards sheep and the drop, could have been a bad one. Learnt from it though and all is ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakeatron Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 9.30 seems ok, see if anyone else is coming - simon has a bit of a treck to get to devils if he comes I remember doing something very similar - into a right too hot, back brake, front brake, grass, oh sh!t, sh!t, sh!t road, keep going. Breath and learn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimsoon Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 On really hot days like yesterday, I ride along fine, then slow for a junction, when I pulled the clutch it cut out. Only when shifting from 2nd -1st. When it was going it was ok then slowing it happened. After it cut out it started after a min or so, then had an irratic idle. It's done it a few times before but it's really intermittent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimsoon Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 (edited) Normally it idles ok, but after it cuts out it jumps around a bit. It's fuel injection too, so I've *no* carbs to play with.edited to say no carbs woops Edited July 4, 2009 by jimsoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 so its the fuel injection, not the carb model.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimsoon Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 yeh, the garage have it though so hopefully they find the fault, they said they'll probably stick it on the dyno to get it hot as the weather is cr@p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
