Roll on summer

Discussion in 'UK Motorcycles' started by The Older Gentleman, Apr 22, 2006.

  1. Got the Duke MoT'd, and then turned to the 400 Four. Replaced the dodgy
    right-hand fork seal, and set to cleaning off the winter coat of WD40
    applied to it last year.

    An hour and a half with Solvol and wax, and it came up sparkling. Turned
    on the fuel, and left it for a few minutes because I'd drained the carbs
    and it just sparked up instantly.

    So it was oen of those rides "to, er, circulate the oil, dear.."[1]. And
    get some beer from Tesco. And at the lights, some bloke leaned out of
    his car window after eyeing the 400 and said: "God, that's lovely.....!'

    Yep, roll on summer :))

  2. It was sunny and warm today in West Narf*ck, warm enough to barbecue and
    eat outside. FJ12 gets its MOT next week.
