  1. Thanks Guys.... Barkwindjammer...the sound is more like a knock, knock, knock, knock, knock.....and so on and so fourth for approx 4 sec's. Pilninggas.......we have tried that and there is fuel getting through not a lot but my hubby thinks enough. Thanks again. calamity x
  2. Looking for a little bit of advice....my ongoing project (93' XV535) was put on hold for a few months what with Xmas and my husbands arthritis (any excuse not to work on 'MY' bikes)...lol....anyway we purchased a used fuel pump from e-bay which my hubby has now fitted however when the ignition is switched on the pump makes what i can only describe as a 'Rattle Type Noise' this last for approx 5 secs then goes silent...........can anyone advise is this normal for this type of bike Thanks calamity x
  3. Here here............. christofeser nice touch I lost my Grandfather during the 2nd World War, he was a Sgt in the Royal Artillery......he served and was killed in North Africa shortly before the end of the war. My other hubbys Grandfather also held the same rank in the same regt and also served in North Africa....(coincidence or what considering my Granda was from London & hubbys Granda was from Northern Ireland) the only difference was that my hubbys granda came home after the war. My hubbys family have a long history of military service.....including hubbys great uncle serving in the Infantry in both the 1st & 2nd World war (brother to the above mentioned Granda) , hubbys father and uncle ex Royal Navy, another uncle and 2 cousins ex army and also hubby is ex-military........we also have several friends and relatives currently serving that we are thinking of !!!. We will remember them....

    Hello Everyone

    Hello Giz, Welcome to the club.......I'm pretty new here also....the other members are quite friendly and useful....'now and again'... Hey Jammer... dont take the phrase 'Hand to Eye co-ordination' too literally !!!!!.........i usually put food substances like this in my mouth. Kaz.
  6. Hello Oldtimer... Thankyou for your reply and as you suggest i will await the DVLNI information.... However I beg to differ with your self medically diagnosis..... I believe that you may need your eyes tested, my initial post was not in 'UPPER CASE'......i think you'll find it was however properly constructed with both upper & lower case, but with the lettering in a larger font & bold..... for that i am really very sorry and did not wish to appear to be shouting....in future you can be assured i will be on my best behaviour. Kaz.
  7. Hello Again Guys... Need a little help........you may or may not be aware that i purchased a XV535 quite recently, the person we bought it from is known to our family and lives close by. The bike we knew prior to purchase did not have any papers (they have been applied for via the DVLNI) and was originally purchased and registered in England. The plate has a 'K' prefix.....I was informed by the previous owner that the bike was a 1992 reg, but having looked through Motor Cycle News i have my doubts and have observed K reg described as 1993 therein....i'am awaiting the paperwork coming back from the DVLNI at Coleraine. I am originally from 'Berks' but it has been quite sometime and am unable to recall the system.....here in Northern Ireland the registration system is different....does anyone on the forum know what year a 'K reg' is.............and if so please let me know..... Kaz:nurse:
  8. Watched that clip. That certainly wasn't filmed at the NW200.... cold, wet n windy,and that's only in our tent! Kaz

  11. Hi '2W', Thanks for the comments..hopefully will have her on the road very soon. Either that or will be selling her as parts on ebay! But let's hope not. Kaz
  12. Hi Kelum, Oh I meant the few that have replied! Will defo be chatting to those that want a chat and have a few fab helpers out there already! some good advice received including 'just bin it!' lol Have put some photos in an album which I hope you can see. I am still getting to grips with this site layout, so bear with me if things aren't where they are meant to be! and will be adding pics as we go along. Kaz:rolleyes:
  13. That's dead on, thanks for the info. Will be on with the next step of the 'project' soon. Kaz
