What did you do with whatever else you've got?

[red98]

rebuilt the front end of my KMX200 after the left front fork seal sprang a leak and covered my disc with oil, fortunatley was green laning at the time so didn't need the frt brake too much.
 
Nick, Red pity you're going a week earlier than me, I'm off to Malta for my middle duaghters wedding and riding down and back, leaving the uk on the 23rd July getting to Malta on the 29th (via Sicily) and planning on getting home on 9/10th August.

Very nearly got rear-ended by some prat who didn't notice the lights had gone red.  Luckily for me he missed me by about 6".  Unluckily for the woman on a Deuville who was just in front of me, he ran straight into the back of her   No-one hurt though but a few bruises on her bike.

[Dead Eye]

Wow, definitely a close call... glad you and your bike escaped unharmed

[red98]

Finally figured out what was wrong with the FJ, it kept hesitating on the throttle and chucking unburnt fuel out of the exhaust. I replaced the plugs, caps, coils, pick-ups still to no avail. I also replaces the 4-2 Neta system with a far sexier 4-1 Vance & Hines Megaphone from my old drag bike.

The problem was 2 knackered carb Diaphragms and the previous owner had stripped the thread on one of the pilot jets which kept working loose  .

Needless to say all this done and I knew it was fixed because the bars tried to smack my in the face the moment In opened the throttle in anger!  Now to get started on the new subframe and tail unit.

Try to avoid doing it in your dressing gown and slippers though - perhaps a little note attached to the handle bars to remind you?

Filled a hole in the wall where there was once a door, moved a light switch and did some plastering. Also listened to the mutterings of Exup and some good rhythm and blues, chewed the cud and drank beer.

This morning I stared at the Mondeo, swallowed back the sick in my mouth and took the bike to work instead.

Got the Honda out and mowed two lawns.  Only thing a Honda is good for really.....

Better news than punctures that! 

I seriously need to check my Peugeot's tyres (both wear and pressure) - been meaning to do it for about a fortnight now! 

[Lawrence]

Damn right.  It was in the front so made it feel awful, had to stop half way to work to pump it up again.

Got a small compressor (£11 from Maplin) with big crop clips (about £4 from Maplin for both) in my bag/box now.

[unfazed]

My son asked me to check a squeaking noise he noticed from the engine bay of his Bora this morning. He noticed it when reversing the car to drive out of the driveway.
We checked and the power steering fluid was low, filled it up squeak gone.
Question was where did the oil go?
We discovered the steering rack was leaking out near the gaiter on the right hand side.
Rang the local Car Guru only to discover they are not repairable. 

Waiting on prices for new, refurbished and used
