Cheers Tony !

Post by slipper 1 »

Had a good 250 mile round trip ride yesterday, took my bike up to Tony. Mon to work his magic with CCT replacement, valve clearances and full service. I can now thrash the old girl without fear of CCT failure !! Tony took my bike out for a quick ride, with me riding his, and thought he would show me his football skills on the twisties. A kid kicked his ball out on to the road right in front of Tony on my bike, he managed to hit the ball dead centre and stay upright :clap: Made my heart miss a beat or two ! Many thanks for all your help Tony, I owe you a few beers!

Still waiting for the heart rate to drop back to normal....
Lucky it was a cheap plastic one, burst ball was still in the gutter as I rode back home.

Found the rev limiter yet?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I'm not surprised, that's not so bad when that happens in the car (a football coming across the road in front of you, before anyone thinks different :wink: ). And it had to happen when riding someone else's bike. Well done for staying on Tony :)
