Ogri Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Just caled in to say Hi to anyone who remembers Ogri from the Wirral back in the 70s/80s. After sporning a couple of sproggs I'm sort of back!? Suddenly realized I never passed my full ticket so I had to take a CBT on a 50cc step through of all things. Can you imagine me 19 stone of relaxed muscle on a bog seat in my old 70's cross over leather? Any way managed to get hold of a 125 drag star so that it didn't look too small under me, every thing else looked like I had a roller skate stuck to my arse. So If you see a red drag star with a big bloke in an old 70's leather buzzin' around the Wirral area, It's Ogri. Nod or even pull me over and say allo. Whilst I'm at it, how the hell do you de restrict these things as 19 stone keeps me at around 65 with the wind behind me, down hill? ll the best Ogri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogri Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 Firstly I hope to be able to follow up with pic's of me on bog seat ( possibly not a pretty sight). I've had a look at the carb from the outside as one of the other members thought that there might be extra spacers for want of a better description, but thinking about it, with these extra spacers in place the carb wouldn't sit right between the heads. Will have a look inside asap. Might just be a case of lifting the needle a notch, that might help. Also some one else suggests that there may be a null pipe in the exhausts which can be sealed off to increase preasure, but I'm afraid this might be a little beyond my expertize. Any way I'll keep everyone posted just incase I come up with the answer as loads of drag tar owners apear to be trying to find out how to de restrict. Missed this years egg run, but will be there next year with out fail Going on a run on Sunday down to LLangollen so the wife will want me around Monday but thanks for the offer, maybe next time. In the mean time any info would be more than appreciated. Enjoy Monday whilst I'm stuck at home.
