  1. sounds like it could be an overflow pipe, this shouldn't have a screw in it because by doing that a vacuum will develop in the floatbowl and cause fuel starvation is the overflow pipe blocked with a screw???

  2. As above bought this the other day and tried it out on a journey to Portsmouth, really good piece of kit if you have a Sat Nav on your bike, you can even use it with gloves on through the plastic facia which is a bonus when you f**k it up and get lost (see trip to London) SWMBO thinks I'm raving to buy one but finally decided that I'm fed up with having to ask the bloody directions from the local numpty !! It's only £12 from Amazon Plus P+P so a no brainer really, just thought you might be interested. Made my own mount for it using one of the unused mirror mounts on the FJR.

  3. yep, just past there, took the Darlington turn off and down the A66 135 miles from home. some pictures and vids Egli Vincent Comet 500cc 500 ducati 750cc xs650 in a side car, guy was fed up of fixing his trump engine. Lots of racers use the IMP engine from the 60's. They were called Coventry Climax engines and were originally made for fire pumps Triple yam? TZ750 grumpy's Szook katana which I think Jim Moore owned one time another grunpy mobile, Kwak moriwaki stylee FZ600's in the post Classic. Mike "spike" edwards trounced them all on his first time on an FZ few more

  4. To be fair when I say under braking, I do mean BRAKING. Like I said she is really quite good now on the back and I can just ride and kind of forget she is there, then obviously when I jam em on into a bend she rests on my back. Size wise, erm? Dunno, slim and 5 10 is about as far as my dad brain can get.

  5. Hey Cynic, what size is your daughter ? We might have some kit that would fit her - we have used to have some kit that my 14yr old niece wore when she came riding with us as well regarding her resting on you when you're braking, have you tried "Pillion Pals" ? - great for kids. They're plastic handles fixed to a belt - Liz is wearing one in this pic - it really helps an inexperienced pillion to get confident on the bike and feel safe. Helps in both braking and acceleration. Even though she wore them, Ryan was so confident that he rarely used them.
