While getting the parts together for the MCCT conversion I've managed to damage my knee playing rugby and am now waiting on a referral to be checked for possible acl damage. I was hoping to get the conversion done this winter but since crouching is an issue at the moment it's unlikely I'll be able t...

Thanks Mac, I've just replied to your pm.

Cheers

Very interested in this Mac. I'll drop you a PM later today if that's ok?

I actually want to go to Birmingham for the Insomnia Gaming Festival and little else. :) Since you're suggesting Yorkshire, I've got to check it out. :) Then again, if I'm going to do this, why not upgrade my driver's license to international and go on a full-blown holiday, cruise around UK a bit? ...

Jeez Mac You’ll never make it on holiday. How will you get past the metal detector? It looks like some kid went on a Benny with a rivet gun[emoji15] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I thought someone had left their hairbrush in there :lol: Seriously though hope you have a speedy recovery Mac.

Thanks guys, I was considering the gasket paper or silicone route but In the end I spoke to a (usually very overpriced) local motorbike dealer who has got a pair of gaskets for around £6-7 and as I'm hopefully only going to be doing the job once I've ordered through them. Next job is to have the bal...

Can anyone tell me if these are the gaskets needed when replacing the CCT's?

Chris.

Have you tried boosting the battery to see if it turns over?

I've only filled up a couple of times as I'm rarely far from a fuel station when commuting. fill ups will usually give me around 95-100 miles which seems ok when you remember its only a 16l tank and a 1000cc engine. Yeah, fair enough. I think what most of us are saying here that the VTR's economy i...
