  1. Are you sure Neutral isn't the wire from the neutral switch? What are you trying to wire? It seems strange that most are switched and blue is a permanent feed - maybe power. I am guessing an alarm.
  2. I tend to use Powersportsplus.com In America but still cheaper with the postage and sometimes customs charges than here (UK). Even better if the box arrives with no charges. Not sure if they do your bike though!.

    YOC patch

    Is the patch universal or is it for the left or right eye? Thanks.
  4. Rode to work this morning. I could smell oil burning and the gearbox felt clunky. Parked the bike and saw this Realising I didn't own a Triumph I gave the bike a quick once over. Oil everywhere including the rear tyre; This is not good I thought so after a cuppa and a ciggie I had a closer look. It looked like the oil filter had corroded and been holed by a stone. I called those nice people at green flag (I get basic cover with my Nat West account). They sent a vehicle to take my bike to the bike doctors. Off we went to HBC motorcycles where the kind men fitted a new filter and put some oil in the bike. They even cleaned the rear tyre as best as they could. All while I waited. While I was there I saw this Anyway, was your day better than mine?

    Good incentive Drewps.
  6. Looks good Drewp's. I thought the manufacturers had given up on spam tin piston engines!
  7. I haven't siphoned any recently but I would swear I could still taste the last lot I did. Does it still tingle on the lips?
  8. Hi Ross. Welcome to the forum.
  9. My method would use: an Optimate/Accumate TM 71 (connected to the battery) an Optimate/Accumate TM 68 (connected to the TM 71) Then a car cigarette adapter for the phone. I have a an iphone at the moment so one of these I can use it in the car or on the bike. It all tucks under the seat. For the satnav I leave it under the rear seat and then run the car type satnav cable from the seat to the yolk and use a RAM mount to mount the satnav. Like this I do have one of those USB connectors in the car as they come with lots of different sockets which can charge other things but have only used the tomtom and iphone car leads on the bike.
  10. Good morning Mick. Welcome to the forum. Happy Paddy's day.
  11. I have an Optimate charger which comes with leads that permanently connect to the battery. I then use a cigarette lighter adapter on this. I can then plug a car phone charger or connect a satnav cable to it. It makes it flexible. So An Optimate/Accumate TM 71 and an Optimate/Accumate TM 68 LINKY

  13. I say the value would not be too far short of a grand. Not sure what to offer. How bad do you want it?
  14. Hi and welcome to the forum. I like the Mini's.
  15. I thought that the top of the tyre had to be covered across the full width. Not too sure about the length. No mention of it here though LINKY
  16. I intended to go to a psychic fayre once but when I got there a sign on the door said...... "Closed due to unforeseen circumstances"! The old ones are the best.
  17. Hi and welcome to the forum Steve.
