Had a 400 superdream taken out to 436,  Moriwaki cam etc. That ran ok.....

Never ridden one but have been told that the 400 even as standard was a great bike.

Actually raced it at Darley Moor in the open class up to 1300cc? Got 2 thirds too. Besides lack of fear on my part at that age, it was comparable to a prody tuned 350YPVS in a straight line - so not slow. Often wondered if you can still get the Moriwaki bits but even on the internet I can see no reference. For some reason, I remember I dealt with a place in Hazelmere, which surprises me as I seem to struggle to recall my last sentence sometimes!!

Rebuilt my 400 brake earlier in the year using silicone fluid with no problems evident. Flushed through with meths and airline before any silicone based product introduced.

Bike looks at home there, you must have been proud.

Dont know if im just getting to be an old duffer but prefer classic having been to both. A bit more accessible and can relate to the bikes more. Not so much happening other than bikes at classic however, which is where the main event does score.

Hi,

Julie has kindly done some model history summaries for those of you showing a bike. Think it would be great to add to this any story (especially photos) of resto work your bike has had. I am bringing my barn find 400 along to show what can be done from a rough starting point! Always knew if i held resto off long enoigh it would be useful!!!

Right, just spoken the main man.

Yes we can leave tickets with carpark marshalls against name /  registratiins. Gates open 9.30 but can arrive from 9am. We are expected to stay for a minimum of 3 hours if showing a bike.

Tried to get a specific idea of space allocation to us but they can't tell us yet as still taking bookings. Looking at 200 bikes so far, which in my mind is impressive but no expert on this type of event.

Can those coming  please PM me with User name / real name / bike model and registration. On the email please specify if you need any extra tickets over and above the foc allocation for those on SOHC bike. HOWEVER IT HAS BEEN CLARIFIED THAT REDUCED RATE TICKETS CAN BE BOUGHT ON ENTRY.   You will need some identicfication which I have indicated will be a copy of an email I will format and forward to all that are coming.

I will let you know my contact phone number by return PM  so you have a contact on the day.

This should all work in my mind but let me know if I am being dim and overlooked anything..


Tim

Thanks for all the PM confirmations so far. I will wait a few days for any more  and then send out some form of email to you confirming things for use to collect tickets on gate.

Anyone hoping to come that hasn't confirmed as yet, can I give you a nudge.....

Thanks



Tim
