I hear from PeteB that they found the fault with Phil the Drills 999 which was traced to a chaffed wire where the loom comes into the battery box area, bet Phils happier that it happened at Silverstone and not the Nurburgring.
My 998R is back to normal now that it is dried out so pin pointing the actual fault isn't going to be easy so will go for the prevention is better than the cure aproach.
Sunday was such a contrast to Saturday waking up to brite sunshine so I thought how can I bitch about the Silverstone weather without making the most of Sundays dry conditions.
Normally that would mean taking the bike for a bl00dy good spin, but I refrained and instead stripped the DD bike, removed the old 2002 5-speed engine (Yes I know it only had one speed in my hands and that was Slow speed
) and replace it with the later engine I bought off Dave Ainscough, by tea time I had it all back together including the addition of a Alloy arm and a new chain and if it wasn't for a lack of Silkolene Comp4 I would have had it running.
Just picked up 4 litres of Comp4 from MPS Express on the way home, they gave me my 10% DSC discount reducing the price to £26.99 so after some dinner I'll be putting it in the bike and get her running.
Then I can carry on with the rest of the list of things to do, no Panic !! still have 10 days to Race Day
