psychlist | 11-Apr-2005 00:19 | Psychlist is a plonker Had an excellent day today, nice run across country to Popham for the Hants meet (hope you're feeling better soon Pete) then a quick blat up the M3/25 to Red Leaders for coffee and doughnuts with CK and DRIBBLE, the boy wonder, and a short hop across the Thames (we did use a bridge though) with AK to say Hi to Rally (I'm sure you'll be able to put your prang behind you when you get your DD racer on track mate ;) ) and a lovely ride across country to get home. Fuel light came on about 10 miles from home so, with about 3 miles to go, I pulled into my local Shell garage and topped up whilst chatting to a guy on a K1200RS who had pulled up at the pump next to me, nice guy and a smart looking bike, if you like that kind of thing :P and got a mile and a half up the road when cough, cough, splutter, bang the engine cuts out restarts immediately before stopping ina cloud of smoke. The dreadful sinking feeling I had told me that I knew what i'd done immediately, but checking my receipt confirmed what a plonker I was for filling my bike up with DIESEL :flame: PS. Sorry PayneP and NBs996, I've got Rally's Rivnut tool at home with me now, didn't quite make it under my own steam tho :mad: |
