Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 7, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2014 it's getting close now any change's/ addition's to the list What about: Lassie Oldtimer FZRal Your the one on a freshly messed with 2stroke. True 2stroke owners will haved lived with the pending death for so long their immune. 'Whatever' being the normal response. They generally ride covering the clutch too though lol. When did things change though? I cant remember riding around as a youth listening to the engine, worrying about the crank seals or debating what was the best oil/plug/timing/airfilter etc. The bikes got no maintenance until they broke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 7, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2014 Very true Tommy! We used to go to Southend (40 miles each way) in the evenings with enough money for a bag of chips. No plan B, didn't actually think we needed one. I broke down once but often used to have to share fuel between bikes when one of us ran out of petrol. All that on a 90cc single to start and then the 250 twin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 yep & I bet none of us were with the AA or other back then [/ The thing was tommy back then most bikes were a simple fix unlike the computerised things today, the guys who still ride the classic and older bikes at least have a chance of getting it running even the AA man now days just calls up recovery,when my f4 broke down the AA guy had to ask me where the battery was!!!!!! All being well I should be at squires god and the dvla willing as I am waiting for paperwork for a change of reg. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slice Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Airhead I'm in if I make it, the FJ should be ready by then and it will need a good run to settle everything down, 400 miles should just about do it, so book me a place if you would, staying at a hotel nearby tho so if you want I will PM you my mobile number?

slice Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Well sorry to say "I'M OUT", just been to the quack and I'm up for an Op on my back so can't make it, I had Cancer a few years ago and it damaged my back (non Hodgkins lymphoma) so I hope you all have a great time. Bit of a bugger really as I will be bed bound for 6 weeks once it goes ahead and that's my summer riding over !! Take some photos if you would and let me know how it goes.
