Midz meet Sept 28

[Vince2]

I presume this meet it still on? I've seen nothing about it but hopefully a few will be there.
Just to say, those arriving from Hinckley direction on A5 won't be able to turn right onto A444/Redgate so you'll have to ride past - probably for about a mile till you get to first roundabout near Atherstone. Go all the way round and come back to Redgate that way. You can turn left onto A444/Redgate that way.
Similar if you're comming up A444 from Nuneaton to A5, you'll have to go to Atherstone roundabout before comming back.
That is unless you find somewhere before the Atherstone roundabout where you can do a u turn SAFELEY.
See you tomorrow.

Thanks guys and gals. A great way to spend a few hours on a warm Sunday afternoon - riding each other's bikes. Only trouble is I now realise how bad mine is!

Checked what fork oil I use. Rockoil SVI 10
Think Paul said use 15 not 10. Any other thoughts?
Could the 10 oil be causing the constant 'pogoing' ( like fork chatter ). Also when I hit a hole or sudden ridge, there's a mechanical sounding 'knock' that comes From that area. Maybe forks not damping?

Paul, your zed's great fun but my license wouldn't last.
Steve, I promise I'll sort mine and you can try it again.

All early z1s have the "Fork Knock" the dampers were changed later in the run.

Thanks for that knowledge John. Saves me trying to fix a fault that is built in!

Do need to sort out the damping though. I'll try the 15 grade fork oil and see what difference it makes.

Could fit some of these.

Yep progressive fork springs and new oil should sort it

[Vince2]

Manual says 49.5cms standard. Just measured mine at 50.5, Z power's are 52.5cms so quite a difference.
Think I'll give them a go ( with 15 grade oil)

Cheers guys.
