Hi again chaps

This time I've posted up on ebay, an exhaust hanger from what I believe to be a YZF 750.

Here is the link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/124330869548

Ok, so since I last posted here, we have all been locked in our houses and struggled for loo roll, but as we're all back out and I taxed my 'ace after sorning it at the start of May, I have something to share. Upon firing it up last weekend, on the button I might add (a bosch battery and super in th...

the rattle persists

It has it uses I admit, and one does have to hold their hand to the devil if change and progress are wanted. I'm a member of Thunderace group on there, as well as others, but I just can't get excited about fecalbook like other people can.

anyway, good work that man

Hi all.

I live near Portsmouth and wondered how many on here are from the surrounding areas, if any. I don't see a lot of our bikes around but wondered if there is a secret meet up I didn't know about.

If there isn't, does anyone wanna start one up?

Sincerely,

It's an old British saying Squire, meaning to tune, to tweak, to adjust, to FETTLE. as you guys often say: Wrench. He's done a bit of wrenching on it.

Tasty bike by the way Urban Tangleweed

she comes out in the winter too, but only on a nice day now. When it's a tad poo out, it's Tiger 800 XC o'clock.

I've always been a Silkolene kinda guy.

I have another quick question then. If she rattles a bit on 10/40, and nothing is wrong, should I now use a different grade oil? Go up 5w for example?

Any input greatly appreciated.

Tis a strange one. I did valve clearances not long ago. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree, I know I'm probably due an oil change now so I'll start with that. I know there shouldn't be a problem, I did 79k on my Thundercat before I sold her on, and that was on original tensioner and chain.

I go away and the topic goes out the window....then hails a taxi. Haha.
