Think I'll order a new nylon block, too, as this one's got a bit of wear.

Good work! 8)

I need to do mine soon so I'd be interested in any info you have

...I started to have a look at mine yesterday but was stopped short when the whole door fell off as I removed the track cover and broke the bottom roller bracket in half... humph! :(
 
I too got one to fit.............job for the winter tho I recon, not keen on attempting to take the cover off :lol:
 
Took the bus to the local rolling road to get the carbs set up on the new motor, I wasn't that far out at all but thought it was worth double checking before heading to Alive n Vdubbin at the weekend.

Bit of a tight squeeze getting the bus in but worth it and it will be back for a full rolling road session once I get some more miles on it,

After the wipers squeaked, groaned, popped a fuse and packed up in tje rain yesterday I managed to get time today to pull the mech out and grease it all up!

Time will tell, the rain jas stopped now, bring on Bristol Volks Fest!
 
Had an awesome day out in the van today with kids, wife and dog. Even the rain didn't bother us. Did a circumnavigation , if thats possible on dry land, of the Wirral. Played on the beach in West Kirkby, fish and chips in Parkgate for
tea

Well that's good news Graham! :D
 
Drove across the East Midlands more times than I can bear to recall. And, on day six of ownership it rained again. A lot. (No offence - but good to see the puddles in Parkgate!) However, I found second gear several times, had several people congratulate me on the bus and two bikers slowed down on the M1 to take a look and give me a thumbs-up. Made me feel so much better that even the hot-start no-start at home on the drive failed to dampen the spirits.

Gonna be too windy for a fire by the looks of things, just saw the local weather, gale force winds Friday, I do hope they are wrong :shock:
