You are of course welcome along to any Southwestbikers rideout, however your bike must be in good mechanical order (we don’t want anything falling off of it including you), taxed and have a current MOT. You must have a valid motorcycle licence and current motor insurance. You are in charge of your motorcycle at all times and SWB will not accept any responsibility for actions you take or any accidents you may have. Always ride within your own capabilities and do not put others at risk. Remember, while you are on a Southwestbikers rideout you are representing the site and what it stands for.
Thank-you.
Don't forget......ANYONE can organise and run a rideout.

, heres what happened afterwards; Those nyloc nuts were stainless, and i used plain washers. The nylon melted because they're situated next to the block, and i guess stainless being a softer metal didn't help... they vibrated loose (not off though), i've now replaced them with steel nuts & spring washers.Do i still have to eat my buff?

Re: Rideout 1st march?
Stainless steel is much harder than even high tensile steel, just try drilling it. Stainless nuts with spring or serrated washers would do the trick but make sure your tighten them to the specified torque. It was the nylon melting that caused your problem I suspect.JohnBob wrote:Ooh dear...JohnBob wrote:I've now rectified it with two nyloc nuts. If they wind themselves off i'll eat my buff...
