For those that will be coming out to play, a quick reminder:-

Meet around 08.15 to leave Bridge motorcycles 08.30 with full tanks of fuel

And depending on how long the piece of string is measuring how long we take I could finish at Tivvy if we're running late or if we make good time join Si watching the MotoGP gods, main race at 12.30 :-?

I'm out. Too early for me and the mileage would take me over the amount needed before my 1st service. Have a good one - went right past your door today Brian and found some nice lanes across the Moor.

Glad you all had a good ride,
couldn’t get away early enough to get to bridge in time for the start.

Thanks guys for making the day a flippin' good 'un :-bd

Roadside bodging is our speciality, as long as a mate has a pair of pliers and another has a couple of cable ties handy we can keep old Bazuki electrickery working - sort of :mrgreen:

I'm thinking of ripping the whole lot of switches, connectors and wiring loom off the B-King and doing a complete rewire...…or a gallon of petrol and match could well be applied :80:

Could just replace the wires and connectors that are part of the ignition circuit in your existing loom, if that's what the issue was?

Cracking ride Brian. Forget the petrol bonfire; think simple and carry a bit of wire. Otherwise everything is fine.
