  1. After getting that carb back on I remembered why I took that old carb off. Bloody thing always ran like it was getting air in from somewhere other than it should.
  2. Is this what our new fuel is doing to our bikes? Got this out of the tank with the tap out and shaking it about That gasket's never going back in. I've used the body of a spare carb I had with the new needle valve just to rule out any probs with the seat.
  3. Tank off for me too, find out why reserve did nothing. Suspect this crap fuel coupled to the bike going nowhere over winter.
  4. That's what happens after a couple of beers, get frisky and bang the misses in odd positions. Hope you're feeling better soon.
  5. P6 Rover is now done. Found a broken wire, once repaired the Alternator is charging again. New tank sensor fitted and working after some probs getting the pipes on. Dominator fork leg stripped, cleaned and reassembled with gen bushes and seals. Got another float needle to fit, can't wait to take the carb off again. Watch this basted space.
  6. Cars for me. Oldest boys MOT n service his fiesta. All was well till I noticed it needed the T belt, and 2 front tyres, and all 4 TPMS wheel sensors. Wish he had a bike
  7. Well the seal saver did nothing, still pissing out oil. Wouldn't start this morn till I gave it a sniff of easy start in the airbox. Then it ran like a cunt till it ran out of petrol and wouldn't do anything on reserve. Moments of depositing fuel on the floor too. Lucky I was close to a petrol station. Pulled the bad side off and got it in the shed. I can see marks down stanchion, nothing I can feel but thought it strange as it was all assembled after re-chroming with new bushes and seals. Slightly trying my patience now.
  8. That's looking great Bob, proper size kitchen.
  9. By eck, theme some ruts. Did you have to kneel on the seat
  10. Going to refit the water pump to the rover in a bit. She'll want to go shopping so the water pump may take a while. Round a friends tonight for a drinking games night. See you Tuesday.
  11. Great bike shots but those glasses ain't looking too comfy in there.
  12. Looks tidy. Think you're getting to think much more of this runaround bike.
  13. Great mix of bikes and you had the sun. Now get some sleep.
  14. Just been and had the bikes out and run up. Tracer started first touch of the button, TDM needed help from the battery charger and he dominator, are the nx650. Took a bit of winding before it burst into life, then piss petrol out through the overflow again. I also noticed a leaking fork seal which pissed me right off as the stations were re-chromed and assembled with new seals and oil. Gonna try the seal saver if I can find it before taking a big hammer to that basted carb. I used some anger energy to have a good sweep/clear up too.
  15. Was in aid of a local am dram shop for kids, my Samantha used to go there. I was surprised it was still going after all these years.
  16. That sounds like an anal condition
  17. Something I often think about but have done nothing so keep us posted.
  18. Had a charity quiz night last night, not feeling to bad considering the amount of shit we drank.
  19. Jacked the front end of a sprinter today only for the crossmember to collapse. After much beating and bending I got it back to looking like it originally did. Once all the mud had fell off I could see it wasn't something to jack on.
  20. Def damp in there, which pipe? Didn't think your van was very old.
