Took the tiddler for its MOT today, not run her for many months, wheeled her out the garage (felt so light) fired up first prod, warmed her up and then sailed thru the MOT with no advisories. Went for a celebratory blat - forgot how nice they sound above 6k. P1020579.JPG Have decided to thin the her...

Sorry Ted, couldnt make today - been AWOL all weekend.
Cheers Tim

See you there Ted

Ted,
just a thought but 10th June is also the date for this years Lincoln Bikefest: usually get a good turn out and might be worth a look after Willy Woods ?

Cheers Tim

Russ, that paintwork looks gorgeous !
Sent you a PM.

Weather was stunning today, so took my Z900 on the Wolds Run to the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre: it was great, the place and surrounding roads were packed with all sorts of biking nostalgia: old Brit stuff, loads of 70's 2 stokes, and a fair few modern bikes as well. Oddly though, I did no...

Nice bike and a great starting point you have got there: look forward to more pics.
Ive had a couple of Insurance companies provide 30 day temporary cover notes based on VIN / Frame nos: curious, but who are you currently using ?

Some very nice bikes: great pics - thanks for posting.

Chrome Restoration Svcs at Coventry, are going to strip the chrome off a couple of old Z13 engine cases and then mirror poilsh them for me; I dont fancy de-chroming at home, think you need concentrated Hydrochloric (Muriatic) Acid and a big container.

Ted, at least the car park looked dry for you, when I got there about 11.00 the rain was just starting in earnest and the few hardy souls there, were taking shelter under the trees .
On a positive note at least my Z900 ran perfectly after its prolonged winter slumber.

Cheers Tim

I liked this - thought might be of interest https://www.iomtt.com/#video

Not sure why but the video needs dragging back to start - jumps to 1min 40 secs, so misses the best bit the start !
