I plan to get out after fitting bikes parts. MotoGP this weekend.

Mine arrived today along with a new magnetic sump plug. Oil and filter already here so busy time tomorrow.

I'm thinking that but still got work to do. Sun got itself out about an hour ago and the skys are just like yours.

Missed delivery of my chain and sprockets today.

I'm guessing the one I worked on was an earlier model as it had the ECU and another electronic ignition module almost as big as the ECU. Would of been more crap to try and hide.

Jesus, end of the month already.

Yes. Hopefully this works and I won't have to take it off for an age after.

It's been bloody cold here again. Prob not that bad but after the warmth of the weekend it feels very cold. My viton tipped needle valve and float bowl gasket arrived but need to find the time to attack that one.

Got bored of waiting for Mandi to decide if it was going to rain or not,(and it didn't), so went and watched the touring cars. Ordered oil then realised I'd ordered the wrong type so ordered the right stuff, I can use the wrong in the dominator so no prob. A genuine chain set popped up on Ebay for £100 so that's on the way too.

After a boiling, 2 hits of 20 min ultrasonics and a high pressure air line blasting the little kwacker is running and ticking over. Still plenty of odds n sods to get sorted but glad the major work is over.

Heading to the shed in a bit to cook the carb in the ultrasonic tank on the F7 again. Bike runs but won't tick over. Jets are clear but suspecting a blockage in the carb as it looks like it's been in water in it's past.. Hoping Mandi will finish her weekend work so we can nip out on the bikes for a bit as it's the better weather today. First BTTC race tomorrow afternoon.

Is that the same as knackered? I normally keep a record of when I changes parts but for some reason didn't bother. Bet that set had done less than 10,000. Was a DID chain and JT sprockets. Watching a couple of genuine sets on eBay at the mo.

I realise this is all alien to you and your Beemer Pedro, have you still got the XR?

Anyone remember Roachford

I feel your pain. Pulled the dominator from the shed, switched on the fuel tap only to have petrol pissing out out of the carb overflow again. I'd bet if Freds watching he'd have a little titter knowing the carb removal ball ache. It did start though.
