I'll be bringing my electricery meter and attempting to work out BSM's wiring, although from what I hear via Carl, it might just be best to push it down the road and torch it - assuming the wiring doesn't do that by itself!

Oi piss off slappa :lol:
we sort of figured out where the wires need to be re-routed, just haven't got around to doing it yet tho :(
i've also run out of 10amp fuses because they keep blowing :x i need to find out why.....

9am at thurruck, anyones welcome to be there earlier, hopefully we will be on our way by 9.15, which only leaves us 15 mins to get there if we want any chance of getting a bacon butty off mac :lol:
does anyone know if bikes are free to cross at dartford????????
i'm bringing the hid kit for styler, p-clips for carl and the parts that mac kindly borrowed me. if i was mean't to bring anything else for someone please let me know....
HEY YOU GUYS!!!!!!

If I can find a way of getting the wheels changed over from the crashed bike to the new bike, so I got decent tyres on with only a rear paddock stand tomorrow, I might head over and get the mcct's and tps done, despite the wind and rain :?

You could go through London, which is cool if you know your way around London well. But you will burn so much fuel with the traffic and lights etc, not to mention the time it would take.

If it was me the bottom half of M25 would be the way to go.

You'll have a lonely hour then! I think everyone else is aiming to be their for 9am :biggrin

I've just done my pre-Saturday checks, namely that the generator and timing mark plugs aren't seized, and they're fine. Took them out, gave them a wipe and put them back. So put me down for manual CCT's. I'll check the TPS while it's in bits too.

I'll be bringing my electricery meter and attempting to work out BSM's wiring, although from what I hear via Carl, it might just be best to push it down the road and torch it - assuming the wiring doesn't do that by itself! :biggrin
Do you have manuals in hand cause I will be bringing a few spare sets with me.
