Yup, I'm up for that, how about 27th or 28th Dec, weather allowing?
Either ok by me, any thoughts on where?
My Beemer is feeling a bit sorry for itself, needs a new battery i think.
But yeah, either day for me too. It’ll be good to escape the grip of Cabin Fever for a bit
Happy Christmas to one and all, looking forward to some (hopefully) great weather in 2024 together with some great ride outs
I'm happy to head over your way or meet anywhere that suits. I'm just the other side of Fordingbridge but don't mind how far I go within reason.
Suggestions sort of halfway'ish: Sol Bakery & cafe on the A303, used to be the Little Chef for those with long memories
nearer me: Comptoan Abbas if you want to see what Mr Ritchie has done with the gaff, all hipster with decent coffee but often a few bikes there to nose at
nearer you (sorry Rosie, can't recall exactly where you, just know it's up North somewhere ; ) ) Ginger Piggery at Boyton, just of the A36 near teh Hillside cafe, never been there just a goggly search
.................. or any other places you fancy?
Merry Christmas to all and like Trev P said lets hope for a great spring and some ride outs, just think we are almost at the shortest day of the year.
Merry Christmas to the last remaining inmates of the forum. Can't really make a meet-up, certainly not on road bikes as they're SORNed now, and due for some workshop time. Chicky's 790 Duke is currently on the bench, we've replaced the leaky thermostat cover - an issue that dates from when they were new. The original part has an oval-section spout that the top rad hose connects to, and this was the source of the drips on the garage floor - it only leaked when cold, and dripped onto the header pipes so it stank when fired up the next time. KTM's replacement part has a new part # and features a round-section spout. Many other manufacturers would have acknowledged this error and issued a recall to have the new part (?46 thank you) fitted FOC....
Another job to do is change the plugs (?47 for two - who else can remember when plugs cost ?3.50 apiece?). After removing the tank it's obvious that a heap more will need removing before being able to get anywhere near the plugs - consulting the KTM Repair Manual only seems to offer the option of doing it with the engine out - a step further than we're really prepared to take at the moment.
I'm probably off-roading with Jaydee next Wednesday, near Portsmouth.
Y'all have a safe and enjoyable holiday now...
