that was gooood smok'n

there was an MCN rider in the thundersprint on sunday. he did some good times

Hudders

to the forum Alex, nice bike BTW

we got there when the cavalcade went past, after the last lap we followed them into the paddock area and the marshalls were jumping up and down, saying how did we get this far. It was great parading with all the bikers and got the best parking spot in town

if your breaking down the engine, all you to do is measure bore wear and lap valves etc as a matter of course. If the bike has been off the road a while, the rings may have gummed up a bit skewing the readings drewps

LOLZ

Jut come back from the sprint. Weather held up eventually. Met James Toseland and that Guy Dev from corrie Hazel Blears was there with Hubby I think they ride a Harley. She was supposed to attend a scout day yesterday but was "too busy" TZ 750 Toesland Vyrus ridden by Dave Read, shit hot bike and well ridden Duke with a Difazio front end Beautiful Norton special there was an electric bike there which was racing in the GPX TT , wierd with no sound except the regen braking

Not forgotten you Jeeps, still awaiting Alex to respond as he has just moved to the other side of the world!!

no points there, you have electronic ignition. screw in a self tapper and pull. the plug should come out! drewps

here's the reply "Thank you for contacting Stena Line. Motor bikes are secured by strapping or ropes, you can secure the bike, but our staff will offer assistance where necessary. As this a classic motorcycle, I would advise to bring a piece of fabric or thicker materiel (some drivers have been known to use their gloves) this is placed below the strap or rope and would ensure no movement during the voyage. We carry hundreds bikes during the North West 200 with very few complaints, if your bike is damaged by us, while on a Stena Line ship, the issue will be investigated, and if our staff are found negligent, we will cover this with our insurance. We hope you enjoy your forthcoming journey, "

Hi Andy to the forum mate

it was the 250's that were heavier, not the shape of the engine!!

i've emailed the ferry company with my concerns. thanks for the tips guys

cheers Merv! I guess use their straps then and we don't get blamed if it goes pear shaped drewps

god your pendantic Jim!! the NW200 is the Northern Irish road race. we are sailing from stranrae 2 hour journey on the ferry!!

k82's are in 3, 3.25 and 3.5 x 18 and seen K70 in 3.25 x 18 just wanted to know what the differences were!

is this the one you like? its an xs400 though this is mine

do wat OG does, he wears PLATFORM SHOES

all I get is a little steam on the inside of the house windows and an automated sign. a bit like what Winston Churchill did in the war!!

whats wrong with flip flops? the most popular shoe in the world

Not long till NW200. never took the bike on a ferry before. If anyone has got any tips to doing this (bring own straps. covers, best to park etc) I would be grateful and and "ferry" appreciative !
