Re: Red one Hockley Heath Sat 27th
Hi yes that was me, Malc, just picked it up. I was on this forum about 3 years ago and had a vtr then, I'm shure you were organising a come around and replace your cct and I had bought mine and was going to join you, but had marriage problems and such and ended up having to sell everything and start again, but I live in knowle and I'm remarried and just replaced my much missed storm, you will have to pop around for a cuppa and a look at the bike, it was great to jump back on one after a hard couple of years, but hey that's life and all good now, all the best, Malc.

Yes will have to pop round and have a look at it some time, looked & sounded good as it went past.
Were you registered on here before? Might be worth getting the admins to find your old user set up as it will save you havering to get to 50 posts to use the private message and sales section

Hi Gents
Can I introduce myself as I'm also close to Knowle, just down the road in Balsall Common! Brought a storm in August and the front tensioner failed in 38, yes 38 miles after collecting from Evesham! I was very lucky the valves didn't hit the pistons, anyway Adam Erzen fitted some of ade's tensioners for me and it runs ok now. I cannot believe Honda continued with such a poor design.
Anyway look forward to hearing from you
Dave

welcome to the club Dave.
you got very lucky with your valves, you should have bought a lottery ticket the same day.
Who is Adam Erzen?
hope to see you out an about on the roads. if I am looking at Malcs CCT over the week end you can pop over and we can do an impromptu workshop day!
