Sorry folks but at this current moment in time I have no words to desribe my feelings fully......

Had a look through the owwers manual and nowhere does it say "We hope you enjoy your product.......just so long as you don't ride it too much"

Feels like £11k down the swanny in my opinion, when I could do with it most....

Sorry for your sad loss...........

Shiiieeeetttt...sorry to hear that Guy...it seems you had years and miles of trouble free riding with your 'R' then this lot!

These things always seem to crop up when you least need them.

Fingers crossed you may be able to source one cheaply from someone off here or from a breakers (bike-enders?)?

keefer · 02-Aug-2005, 21:31

that's real bad news especially after you just had all that work done.
is it not worth setting on fire ?
failing that I have a 748sp lump you may be interested in ?
what ever you chose to do hope you get on the road again soon

noooooooooooooooo way, and it was looking so good and running so well at Cadwell, gutted for you mate ...

Jools · 02-Aug-2005, 21:40

Guy...chin up mate. I know what it's like.

There's an ST2 down here that isn't being ridden as much as it deserves to be what with my current commitments.

I know it's not a patch on the 'R' but you're welcome to borrow it for a while.

Felix · 02-Aug-2005, 22:54

That's utter crap, mate! What exactly is the problem?

KeefyB · 02-Aug-2005, 23:01

Aww nooo!
Thats rotten luck mate,just as you were looking forward to riding again.
Lets hope its summat simple like a bust spring or circlip.

Jon · 02-Aug-2005, 23:24

Guy it can't be gone completely!!! Surely its just a component or two

skidlids · 03-Aug-2005, 01:03

More details of the problem please Guy
Got to be worth a call to Alan at AJ Racing to see what he may be able to sort.
