[RGP750]

Would have been nice to bring the K0  up but Son getting Married
on Saturday so i probably wouldn't be in a fit state.

[Rozabikes Tim]

I'm sure someone will chauffer  it for you!

[AshimotoK0]

Sorry guys & gals can't make it as it clashes with Newark autojumble and I have already booked and paid for my pitch in advance.

[Rozabikes Tim]

I will be there as long as weather is ok 

[MrDavo]

Still coming, assuming tonight's fitting of new coils all goes to plan.

[Moorey]

I will have to cry off due to my back wheel. 

[MrDavo]

Well that all went very well, until the very last minute when the throttle 'pull' cable snapped.

At least it broke in the garage and not on the road!

Tomorrow I'll do some ringing around to see if the man in Darren selling pattern cables on eBay will let me collect on Saturday or if Silvers do a next day courier service, the website is vague. Does anyone know? Not sure why it snapped, but it is the one that came with the bike so it could be ancient.

Still coming assuming I can get a cable.

[Bryanj]

A Large dealer may have one if you have such locally

[MrDavo]

Thanks Bryan I'll try the ones in Rochdale and Manchester first.

[MrDavo]

Having drawn a blank with the dealers, and failing to find anyone who offered a service guaranteeing a Saturday delivery ( plenty ready to take my money on the strength of a probable delivery) I jumped on the Harley and went to Darwen to get a pattern cable from the man on eBay.

Another fellow petrolhead, I probably spent as long taking bikes, classic cars and looking at his Z1000 restoration as it took to get there.

It just shows that in this virtual age, where we buy stuff from all over the globe, sometimes there is no substitute for getting off ones arse and actually going shopping for something. Assuming it fits ok (I took the old one to compare) see you all on Sunday.

[Moorey]

Back wheel is now sorted and back in. I made the spacer today. So I should be attending god willing. 

[Clunker]

Is anyone going on Saturday?   I plan to chuck a tent up somewhere and have a few pints.

Mike, you are welcome to chuck your tent up in my garden, I'm 18 miles South of the Tramway Museum (Derby) so we could plod up there Sunday morning, I'll be on my Zephyr as I'm getting a bit bogged in my CB. Got bog facilities, local Asian corner store and a range of takeaways. I don't do the local pubs but there is off road parking. Please let me know if you are interested. Regards, Clunker

Looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday. We should be there about 10-10.30 ish hopefully.
