Grand Prix 500: The Rainey Days Tomorrow 24th april on ITV4 from 9:00pm to 10:00pm Sports documentary follow up programme in the Unrideables series this time focusing on the story of US motorcycling hero Wayne Rainey who dominated the sport in the 1980s and early 90s. Rainey at this time was locked into a weekly two-wheel stuggle in the world championship with rivals Eddie Lawson and Michael Doohan, but it was gangly Texan Kevin Schwantz who was his main rival. The film includes incredible footage of those heady days, and the men involved talk candidly about their amazement at some of the things they did on the track, and about the price they sometimes had to pay in injuries. It also includes contributions from journalists, managers and their busy PR team. SUB Sport Motorcycling

update; driver has admitted liability, which stops all the shenanigans. His insurance phoned me and apologised and they are sending an engineer round to inspect the bike. bankstone are handling the claims and looking at their site are specialists in motorcycle claims. so far so good

Thanks Foams still got the tracker and the FZ to play with. engineer will inspect and as its agreed value it won't be written off. solicitor booked in to see me too!

wow could live in there. good job

only single in this one as its the later type.

cheers, bit more sore all over now. taking a few paracetemols

it would affect the separate independent connections I made. All i have left is the pickup coil an even that ohms out correctly is that from the ignitor or HT coils?

I have what's called agreed value insurance. its for classic bikes and stops them being written off for £5 when in reality they are £2k+ course I do mate, appreciated. I can get new forks etc so all is not lost

Motor ran fine on the test bed, maybe it has been standing the pickup coil was affected Sent from my RM-914_eu_euro1_280 using Tapatalk

Stig guys said it all really

no indicators, wasn't even in the position that would tell me he was going to turn (usual alert sign for me). slowed right down near to the curb so i went around, then he accelerated and turned into me to get to his vacant spot opp the road.

I expect you would be eager to help Kev.

yep

called them after hospital as the finger started to swell and get a little blacker

cracking day Paul. looks like you and me both on the healthly diets. I lost 1.5 stone since Jan.

possibly the timing is out? won't get anywhere if that isn't correct

I'm fine thanks folks, the finger is hurting a bit,but the big question is why can't I get sparks on the FZ?

Did direct connections and not a peep, I recon its the trigger coil.

good job i was going slowly

just come back from there

Coming down Worsley road on the Gilera and a Citroen pulls over to the left and slows right down, I go round him and at the same time he decides there's a parking space opposite the road and takes me out. Bent the forks, scratched me lovely frame,smashed headlamp etc. luckily I was only doing about 20mph he got away with 2 rubber marks and a busted mirror. I got a broken middle finger when the clutch lever hit the car. At least I got a witness who said it was his fault. me lovely bike
