  1. If you ever venture into to Devon Hedgehogs are always my first choice, after care service is excellent... Only trouble is it’s a 70 mile round trip from Bude! (I would guess your further down than that.) Well done on passing the DAS
  2. Cheers guys I figured there must be a reason for them (just couldn’t think what!)...
  3. Hi Nice hot sunny day today So decided to start putting the seca back together Anyone know anything about valves at the top of fork stanchions Nothing in the manual and Google hasn’t helped much! Could I just replace them with a grommet? I fairly sure they are original, may have been just for the US market... Any help will be much appreciated Tony...
  4. Hartland hill climb / one for the calendar Hi Mervin The worlds started getting even smaller! We probably rubbed shoulders today a couple of times Great day, great weather, plenty of action & a free day out I would give today 10 out of 10 But the pub wouldn’t give out free beer! & I had to walk back up the hill...

    Hi Guym For a second post I would suggest an intro in the new members section! I’m sure if you decide to get the bike you’ll get all the help here. I’ve just started putting my seca back together One thing I will say is if you need any parts then you need fairly deed pockets...
  6. Does it still make the clunking sound when you’re not moving? i.e. on start-up or ticking over?

    Dogs

    If you cant get a dog you could still have a sign outside...

    Dogs

    Hope I don’t need to worry! we’ve got a black Labrador On the plus side to noise she always lets us know- long before the door bell goes that someone is outside (not the most aggressive dog but can bark for England)
  9. Don’t think mackelly,s knew what hit them today Buzzing with bikes at lunch Look like a decent ride out as they all turned up together
  10. sorry Dirty I was meaning boots Not sure I could get in tight trousers any more and if I did probably wouldn’t get back out!
  11. Whatever’s the most comfy for you, I guess it depends on how tight your trousers are! (Personally I believe they should be compulsory along with gloves!) The best horror story I’ve got is a chap last summer on Triumph triple wearing t-shirt, shorts & “Flip-Flops” wasn’t my best move pointing out his footwear to him!!! Good luck with the DAS...
  12. I’m up the other end where the cavaliers have the bonfires Hi Drewpy wasn’t there a bike museum in Combe Martin many years ago?
  13. I’d go for the Bandit!
  14. Small world Mervin I live just around the corner from the first photo Great find on the website...
  15. Hi Nev That’s an awesome finish to a great project. *** Totally inspired by your commitment *** (100+ posts!!!) Tony...
