Re: plymouth mega ride,
Are you sure it's head gasket problems, I guess your bike overheayed. There is a known problem with water-pumps on the LC8 motor, there are a couple of O-rings whichneed replacing as part of that job. Who's doing the work?GIXXER KID wrote:they just said rings to ma dad on the fone, could be piston rings or maybe o-ring seals dunno either way wont b done.TOM91 wrote:not havin much luck r ya mate. what parts they gettin?GIXXER KID wrote:im sh*t out mate, bike went in for repair on thursday and they told me today they need to order more bits so i cant get there

Re: plymouth mega ride,
Sounded like a good turn out, looks like the two charities this year are going to have a really good amount donated to them.....
