    sounds like an earth or live issue. Leccy will always find the easiest path so that's through the headlamps to earth. Most newish bikes (my '87 FZ does) have diodes which prevent back flow. maybe that's been omitted?
  2. brings back some good memories from last year
  3. still that, no-one was out so I got through OK without harm
  4. nice bikes, like the TR1 Hope the wife didn't see the baby on the floor, I know mine would go mad
  5. went through Breightmet on the way home
  6. didn't see you Kev! The weather was OK going there and a few nice bikes too. More of a gathering than a show but very good for it and quite busy engine manufactured where I live, Gardner Diesels Eccles. They didn't want to fit turbos so they lost out to more powerful engines and went bump rode home in a hail storm and had an open face helmet on, ouch!. Had to stop but experienced some great thunder and Lightening

    I knew what floating disks were, but never thought to ensure they needed to be kept clean. what was he using in the spray, carb cleaner?

    not really difficult http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Scooter-Moped-M6-x-M6-Exhaust-Studs-and-Nuts-/271650165199?hash=item3f3f9c91cf:g:zrYAAOSwuTxWAWF9 just check length and width. even if they are too long, leave them or cut them. for that price just take a punt

    I use stainless off ebay, just measure and check thread size

    or weld on a nut and turn it with that,. the heat will penetrate the whole stud and make it easier to undo. i always dab a bit of copper slip on the new stud to prevent galvanisation of the two metals

    they had leather jackets too but didn't like them. got some long socks and waterproofs

  21. our group was an RC scout group set up in the grounds of the church 70 years ago. Left footers only back then. All changed now as the scouts even have multiple promises for each faction.
