Happy New Year all
« on: December 31, 2014, 02:40:01 PM »
I joined this forum on 2nd Jan 2014. It has probably been the single-most important contribution to the amateurish fumblings that I call my 400/4 renovation project.

Thank you all for the tips, suggestions, pointing out the obvious (not to me), sending me spare parts and lubricants(!), links to websites, copies of manuals, etc., etc.

I hope to get said baby back on the road early in 2015 and will post a picture or two.

In the meantime, all the best for 2015 to you, your projects and to your growing and sharing expertise.

Hear hear to that....

A big thanks to Steve for his efforts & time in managing this forum; and of course the members who have helped me over the past couple of years.

And I gotta say a thanks to DSS...  they may appear to be a bit pricy, but when time & buggerstion factors are important... it all becomes worth it (for me anyways)

Happy New Year all, and safe / trouble free biking for 2015.

Simon.

Nothing organised yet
I do think a club stand would be a good way of seeing peoples bikes and promoting the forum.
