That was my plan. Also riding with a 1000s on points with a strong charging system, so figured if we swap batteries every 150kms or so we should be ok! Via...
I just rode 1000kms over the weekend without any trouble with the battery. The charging light is still on slightly at high revs, but the system is putting life...

Hubert, the expenses that will be needed to put this poor V7 sport back to use are so enormous that the sasked price of this wreck should be close to zero... ...

Yes, you're right Axel, I would have though $1000 US would be more like it. However, if the engine and gearbox were good the rest of the restoration would be...
Hi chaps, I've been away on holiday for a couple of weeks, lovely weather in Italy (Sardinia) until a cyclone arrived the last day! Anyway - I have a 1955...
Sounds lovely Adam, if you're going to spray them silver, why not strip the bearings out and get the whole wheel powder coated? Any chance of some pics? Best...
Adam, Chromed steel rims? Check inside for rot in case spokes pull through from inside catastrophically. I assume you are not using tyres of the same vintage...
clean them with wire wool????and use lots of WD40 or something similar afterwards remove the tires and spend some time cleaning the inside. i had to change the...

Oh No!! That 30 Amp starter relay from Maplin I fitted a few weeks ago has fried after less than 200 miles. Is it time to invest an extra pound in a 40 Amp...
Just a quick update on this one. I fitted a new starter relay this morning but the fault remained - just a click. I therefore suspect that the solenoid is...
Martin, try tapping the solenoid when pushing the starter - this should confirm the problem lies here. From my original post in July: "desolder the coil...
Thanks David. Next time it happens, I'll give the solenoid a tap. Winter is coming and I'll have the opportunity to sort out these gremlins (erratic barrel...

Shit that's bad news. Hope you can make it to the funeral Adam, and if you can, then do take our feelings of loss with you. I never met him but he always came...
