clock swap

admit it looks like a bit o grief but its not as bad as it seems , its purely coz id rather have the newer digi dash and seeing as how i have got the later 19ltr tank now i may as well do both , the only real hassle for me is space to do it ,i cant fart in the shed without disrupting summat let alone turn around , but bigger one is also on the plans fot winter (weather permitting) once its up you are all invited for the opening ,ill supply the beers

fair enough, nothing wrong with a bit of updating

ipswich to the isle of lewis ? bit of a schlepp google reckons 737 miles , 15 hours and 12 minutes .

15 hrs and 12min eh i think you could do better than that !

5 hours of that journey would be the ferry off the mainland. Talking about ferry, where do you catch the ferry from? I bet you have some good bird life up there.

erm yeah think its 4 women to every guy lol
ferry from ullapool to stornoway or uig on skye to tarbert on harris ,
i use the skye route whenever possible cos the other one normally means heading down the A9 which just bores the ass of me ,the road to skye is a great road for bikes in fact all the western roads are excellent,petrol stations can be a bit scarce now n then tho ,had a few near misses but touch wood (hand in trousers) i aint run out yet
oh ferry time is just under 3hrs 1 and a half from uig ,bores the hell outta me, you can watch for seals leaving the harbour ,dolphins and the occasional nuclear submarine ,usual boring stuff,,, there could be a full scale war going on its still not as exciting as blasting my storm down th road

One day I would like to visit the Islands, would love to do some filming up up there in the wilds. Just got to figure a way of carrying my equipment on the storm!. It's one of those places I got on my my list of places to visit at some stage in my life. I would love to visit Iceland as well.
You know Al's possibly planning a storm trip for next year on the west coast http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/viewtopic ... t=scotland you should try to get over for it.

I'm shocked you managed to get hold of a 19l tank. I've got a spare 16l that I'm planning on cutting and making bigger at some stage. Have a look into the temperature sender unit as I think you may have to upgrade that to a later model one to work with the later dash. I believe the SP unit can be used as well, which is what Tweety on the Hawk site used with his CBR dash.

yes it was the sp clock i thought about first but when i missed the one on herr german ebay i came across two for the later storms and the tank , both were more than happy to post and cheaper than some goods i try to get from the mainland ,you wouldnt belive some of the ridiculous charges have a look on ebay next time , anyhoo yes of course you must its the most westerly well north westerly place in europe .
I forgot about that trip ,if i can get across whenever he is near ill meet up thats not a problem as long as i know when well in advance ,would love to hook up with another storm , i can set off car alarms on my own !! two would be awesome !
