Preventative, it has 60,000 miles now (about 97,000 km) I have a bad lifter so I am servicing the cam chest while I am on, replacing inner cam bearings, tensioners and checking everything over. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nute Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Washed everything so it's all nice and shiny now. The batteries Indian use in their bikes are garbage. I replaced the damn thing less than a year ago and the new one is knackered already. Need to see if I can find the receipt as it should be under warranty but I think I'm going to get a lithium one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catteeclan Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Well I did get the bikes swopped round. Did some shopping, which for some reason we have to do again later today. Got pissed Saturday evening and suffered for it all yesterday. Taking the grandkids to a local animal park soon so that'll be busy and a pain. Looking forward to my bottle of wine tonight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boboneleg Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Anyway, I took my anger out on the garden fork. Lots of digging out rocks and shit but it's starting to come on now after looking like a tip for the last year ....... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saul Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Just ridden How Highs Kawasaki death trap into St Austell for him. Took it to his dad’s so that he can sell it for him. I think Shadow has convinced him he wants to learn to drive and get a car. . I told him he could store it one of my sheds but he wants to sell it. I can see his point as he had hardly ridden it for weeks, I think his last off has blown his confidence. I told him there was no rush but you can’t put an old head on young shoulders. Only two bikers in the house now 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are talking about moving out and growing up and all that stuff. I have told them that growing up is very expensive and to hang around here where the bills are paid. We shall see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like they are wanting to go all growed up, whilst we're all thinking wouldnt it be nice to be back home and young again where bills and cares were non existent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catteeclan Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Got the new tyres fitted to the Tracer yesterday, only been sitting here for 6 months. Nipped them down to my old place of work as the paint almost fall off the wheels. Lovely colour but prob water based and made in china. Had a look round that and Mandis CBF as we'll be off to Southampton Thursday. She's insisting we take the bikes but I bet there'll be a few stops with her knee problems. Hope to give them both a wash before as they're filthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
