Good Idea. If enough of us can get together to make it worth Mike's time perhaps we might be able to persuade him to visit more often. Just a thought

Maybe need to see an Admin and see if we could get a sticky. Not sure the best way to work a list though. If each person copied the old post then added there details?
Re: Doing a bit of that 'Ivanising' in April - Falcon 269 - 24-03-16
The best way is to contact me direct by e-mail and I'll add your names to my waiting list.
I already have several in various parts of the UK who've missed out this time around but I keep details and contact those owners direct as soon as I can start putting together another trip.

Can there be any Gen1s left that need to be Ivanised? Surely they're all done by now! :lol

Hey mike long time no speak buddy...we living in the family cottage bang in the middle of the Forest of Dean, got five acres (we let a few caravans store here), so plenty of room if you wanna park up awhile, electric etc , just half a mile from "puzzle wood" which has to be seen to be believed...
Re: Doing a bit of that 'Ivanising' in April - Falcon 269 - 23-04-16
Hey, fella - nice to hear from you! Howgozzit?
I'll be over in Dursley in 5 hours, visiting MiL and basing there for a few days before I move on to the final leg of this 'Ivanising' jaunt. Thanks for the offer of a place to plot up in the gypsy wagon ... might take you up on it one of these days.
You still doing the occasional gig with SH?

Re: Doing a bit of that 'Ivanising' in April - robbo - 01-05-16
Another big thank you Mike for todays Ivanising. Sorry it was a bit problematical, but all sorted now (email sent). May Day run tomorrow, so will be like having a new bike to play with. Thanks again . Anyone undecided on getting this done, get your name down for Mike's next visit, whenever that may be. You definitely won't be disappointed.
Re: Doing a bit of that 'Ivanising' in April - onejay - 01-05-16
Hi Mike
hope your doing well
The last time Mike was in Scotland he done quite a few full monty conversions and 1 slip on (i think) including one from Cork
he was based in my garage for the couple of days he was here and i guarantee if you go full monty you wont regret it
we had some good laughs along the way

Re: Doing a bit of that 'Ivanising' in April - Falcon 269 - 01-05-16
Hey Brian, good to hear from you. Yes, a good trip that one and the hospitality was ace.
I will be looking for ways to fit in a trip north of the border when I can.To all the guys who came to meet up with me this past week, many thanks fellas. Nothing but positive feedback from everyone and it was a pleasure to meet you all and work on your Fazers. I wish you all a sunny and fun summer with your 'new' steeds. Special thanks to the two Daves and my mate, Gary, for providing me the facilities to work out of and for putting the weather fix in. Maybe not quite perfect in Marple but that's to be expected in that neck of the woods.
Cheers!
Mike

Re: Doing a bit of that 'Ivanising' in April - Falcon 269 - 04-05-16
Hi Dave
No apology needed, thanks for allowing me to work on after you'd departed. I hope you had a good weekend away - can't believe it's Weds already! Where did the weekend go?
Loading of the motorhome almost finished, ready for launch on Friday!
Nice to meet you, Dave, and many thanks again for the use of your place to do the other bikes. I know the other guys really appreciated it.
Cheers!
Mike
Re: Doing a bit of that 'Ivanising' in April - teecee90 - 04-05-16
Thanks to Mike for such a great job (despite me being 30 minutes late :o ) and Dave for hosting. Nice walk round Paxton Pits with the wife and dog while Mike worked his magic. The bike is an absolute pleasure to ride. Just need to sort the front end now (and fix the broken choke cable).
Re: Doing a bit of that 'Ivanising' in April - Falcon 269 - 04-05-16
Your timing worked out fine on the day, Trev, so not a problem. Gave me time to drink my coffee for a change
Delighted to hear that you're another convert to the fold. It's good, isn't it?
Cheers!
Mike
Re: Doing a bit of that 'Ivanising' in April - kitcrazy - 05-05-16
Hi Mike my throttle is sticking and won't snap back. Sorry for the noob question but can I fix this from adjusting the cables from the bars?
