Moderator Cynic Posted September 1, 2010 Moderator Posted September 1, 2010 Well tent is up and checked out ok after hiding in the loft for the last decade.
Moderator Cynic Posted September 1, 2010 Moderator Posted September 1, 2010 I've seen drewpy ride and you've got a 350lc so the words f**k that spring to mind Sorted yet Vez?
Vez Posted September 1, 2010 Author Posted September 1, 2010 Sorted yet Vez? No mate, i swapped the piston/rings and top end bearing last weekend, made the rattle/knock worse though . So i figure if i get some breakdown cover and just see how far i get. Considering just going for Saturday as it will mean carrying less.
Vez Posted September 1, 2010 Author Posted September 1, 2010 Someones not enjoyed their stay Not difficult to see why How can it cost less for a chicken burger than it does cheese on toast
barkwindjammer Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Not difficult to see why How can it cost less for a chicken burger than it does cheese on toast Maybe its re-gurgitated chicken like you get in MacDonalds barra ba ba barf
Vez Posted September 1, 2010 Author Posted September 1, 2010 Well I'm now not going. The answer to how far i could get was 3.4 miles. Went out earlier, the bike cut out at a set of traffic lights with a loud clunk and refused to start until it had cooled (turned over ok'ish just wouldn't start), riding home was like riding with the brake on. Guess ill be spending my weekend in the shed.

Flake !, thats shit news Vez, dont kick the bike too hard and knock it off its stand-it'll only cost you more , feel for ye mate that must be a serious downer.
