need a caliper with 100mm spacing what bike?
I have get a 2 pot caliper in the garage from a suzi 125. I'll have a look but doubt it would be what you wanted. you can never have too much front brake

your reading to much into it, get a four pot and match the mc to it. It'll work wether you use 1 caliper or 2 either side. Match up the MC bore, TDR's MC bore size will work as it uses 1 caliper. why not go the whole hog and use the disk too

Anyone manage to get out today?
Went on a 60 mile ride today as the weather was lovely and sunny, but bloody cold My right thumb actually turned blue and i was worried after 1/2 hour as I still couldn't feel a thing, It all came back in the end. strange feeling though met a couple of guys who happen to live near me and they turned out to be police, he said they have a few spates of scooter thefts in the area and one guy in particular, rides no helmet ad an off road bike all over the place. Guess who rode the opposite way as I got into the local council sink hole area! It Blew the cobwebs away and then Paul (Oldtimer) came round in his MV F3, who has another bike, MV F4RR and still has his triumph as well!

Wiring problems
the FZ did that and it turned out to be the fuse box connections, even though they felt secure. I also had a fuse melt but connection was made by arcing across the fuse

Gilera 4V project
yes they did, so that's it then? there is a box at the top which says they will send a message about the outcome of each vehicle notification submitted. I think I'll wait till tuesday and resubmit then just in case they throw up something else (i'm not disturbing a potential hornets nest) DVLA have not asked for anything else and have checked my V55/5 (put red circle round the asterix in the VIn number for instance)

Gilera 4V project
that's why I didn't do one in the first place. the certificate of origin says that FFS! thanks to Blackhat I completed the form online telling as much as I know, had to make a few assumptions and now have an acknowledgement with a notification reference number. see in a few days, at least VAT owed is nil.

Squires 2014 Special Ed T-shirts, Anyone?
Just to clarify, there will be no "personal" changes to the tees. we get a standard one as its impossible to swop/add lettering around and keeps the cost down. This has already been mentioned, hence the poll. I'm happy to go what the majority say and the majority agree with me anyway

Action Park - death and scarring awaits
'Action Park was the site of several fatalities in just the first five years of operation' - Cannonball Loop: The infamous Cannonball Loop (pictured below) was the park’s biggest failed attraction, but it’s sheer audacity in concept has given it legendary status in amusement park lore. At the time, Great American Recreation was experimenting with new attractions. At Action Park, attraction experimentation sometimes meant abandoning convention. In the case study of the Cannonball Loop, the convention which was abandoned appeared to be physics. The design was extreme and bordered on the fantasy. Testing did not go well. Dummies exited the pipe missing limbs; one came out in two pieces. If there was suspicion of poor design, it was confirmed when a hatch had to later be added to the loop to remove riders who got stuck. Debris and rocks would collect at the bottom of the loop, creating a sandpaper-like surface. Those who dared make the plunge suffered terrible cases of slide rash. Employees were offered $100 to test the outlandish slide, but few dared accept the offer. Said one employee who gave it a go: “$100 did not buy enough booze to drown out that memory.” read more here http://sometimes-interesting.com/2014/02/07/there-was-nothing-in-the-world-like-action-park/ Horror stories here http://www.buzzfeed.com/danm3/35-horror-stories-that-prove-action-park-was-the-6wr
