Re: What did you do with whatever else you've got? - nick crisp - 12-02-14
Took the cage in to get it's little problem looked at. Often no speedo, now coupled with cutting out at low speed, usually when just turning in to a junction. Starts again immediately, but lose the power steering when it does it - this has made for one or two "interesting" moments! Now have to be ready to catch it, ignition off and quickly restart; loads of fun! Diagnostics show that it's missing speedo and odo info, sounds like it's all connected. Can we just go back to carbs and cables please?!!
Booked in for proper investigation next Weds, hope it doesn't get too pricey, as it'll eat into July's Euro tour money :'(

Hi Nick,
On some cars the fast idle( when slowing down) relies on the speedo, so if the speedo doesn't work the car will cut out at low speeds ( less than 5 mph) .

Yep, cheers Mark, that's what the garage are saying, so hopefully no worse than a change of speedo sensor might do the trick. We'll see after they've had a better look.

Started rebuilding her!
Began with:

And after about 7 hours of associated jiggery, skinned knuckles, and the rest:

Getting her roadworthy ASAP, will get the wheels powdercoated black to match the bike, and then I'm going to ride her whilst I collect the parts I need to fit a ZZR1400 front end and ZX10R braced rear

Went out for a drive last night and reminded myself why I love cars just as much as bikes ^^

Got blown across the carriage way on the elevated section of the A14 at Thrapston.

Of course, I am Berkshire's answer to Captain Scarlet and I ride an FJ (possibly the most indestructible bike ever made)..... Oh yeah and I have more lives than a whole cattery. I only got a little bit worried when my knee was brushing the crash barrier!
Re: What did you do with whatever else you've got? - Mattsplat - 15-02-14
Got dragged around a superstore by my wife and 2 giggly teenage girls looking for carnival outfits.
I disappeared to the tool section while they did their giggling and grabbed a few bargains.
Then it was off to Aldi to buy up all their black spray paint for €2.99 a spray can
Gonna rustle up some chilli con carne and settle down with a bottle of Irish cream and a movie or two

Replaced an old fusebox with a 17th dual rcd consumer only to discover that the PME earth connection had an impedance in excess of 30 ohms .
max value 0.35ohms , looked underneath the floor boards beneath the mains position and outside , no earth rod present , so had to go and buy a rod in order to complete cert and tick the means of earthing box .
My fault for making an assumption .
