Yep mate, thanks. 2 petrol stops though!! The carb cleared for 2 short periods on the ride home and the bike went, and sounded, fantastic. Only lasted for a couple of miles. Got in before midday, coffee, fuel and ciggie stop and then a splash and dash fuel stop.

Good bikes those Suzukis ;)

Another one done, exactly 400 miles travelled.

A few less than last year but used a load less 2stroke than fuel as was riding a lot faster last year all round. So Paul i think were right on the oil mix being a fluid thing and not a set number.

Any way shit, shower and a coffee needed to feel human after helping john with his drinks.......hic

Floor was a bit wobbly last night?

I left with the choke on and the intention to ride home like that. I only lasted a mile and i switched it off. I could run a hotter plug but I will examine the carb first. The carb did seem to clear for short distances on the way home and it ran fine, albeigt only for short distances. I need to rebuild the origninal engine first.

Signs to where? You do know there is a Bolton in Connecticut!

A race now between Kev and John. Who gets home last.

Made it back by 2.45pm... 6 Hrs,,,,, compared to 8hrs on trip down on friday,,, less cage drivers :drive: on a sunday,

Great turnout of bikes on run,, 96 2 Strokes becky said, one seizure , an RD250 on the infamous Garraby Hill,

We got lost on ride-out as usual, there, and coming back . some great overtaking manovers on the DT"s

I scalped that old 1950"s bus on the A64, to leave the posse in my wake,,, :jossun:
