The beast is back!! 5 Attachment(s) Well, the beast is back after a long lay off! I had an overheating problem all through last year that I chased. It would run great for ages then overheat, but the temp was held steady at 100 with the fan override on. Anyway, to cut a long story short, it was the rear head gasket, so I pulled her apart for a winter rebuild. I sort of got side tracked and ended up changing/adding a few more things:

Looks the dog's danglies Rich. Just in time for Cadwell then :D Have you fitted the mower blades to the bottom of the fairing yet?? Chris:burn: |
Rich?Not me!! No mower blades but i have a spare oil catch tank if you need to borrow one? |
Looks lovely mate! |
Nice! See you at Cadwell - I should have my 851 ready, complete with 888 motor and SP cams. paul |
Looking even better than last year Jasper (if thats possible)!! I'm hoping that the coolant I was losing last year is fixed by the hose repacements and that mine is not head gasket as well. Looks there will be at least 3 851/888's at Cadwell. Hey Jools! Will yours be running this year? Keith |
She looks gorgious Jasper-I look forward to seeing and hearing her at Cadwell. John |
looking good |

Now don't you start ;) I've been running round for the last year trying to balance a hectic job, trying to look after an increasingly disabled Mrs Jools, doing whatever I can to finish the house restoration and do the garden up so that we can sell this place as soon as the housing market looks up a bit. We both love this house and wanted to be carried out of it in our box, but we've gotta concede that being on a hill with no car parking anywhere near, it's not in a suitable location for a disabled person, and being a victorian house isn't wheelchair friendly inside either...it's got to make way for a nice little bungalow somewhere (Jeez I never, ever thought I'd be looking for bungalows). Oh, and I've been doing Pronto in my 'spare' time All of which means that my T8 is in the same state I left it in and my ST is still half way through an ally swingarm transplant to replace the original steelie. The ST is gonna be the easiest to do, so I'll be putting a flurry of activity in on that. Haven't ridden since the last track day though so I'm expecting to be in the inters and amongst the slowest of them an' all |
Oh, nice bike by the way Jasp....you can't believe how green eyed I am |
