I damn well will be from now on! 3000 miles to kill that last rear! :smt076

Are you buying these tyres from hubba bubba or what? :p

[Luckypants]

I thought you rated the Storms on wear as well as grip LP?

I did, but I had a sneaking suspicion that actually they were not that good.... So started taking notes. I am thinking it is the big heavy VFR that is the problem, the original BT-021 had a special heavyweight carcass, same as used on blackbirds and 'Busas and were bally expensive. They only managed 4K on each rear as well. Well I actually junked the second rear at 2K cos the BT-021 were scary in the wet, so swapped them out when the front wore off.

The Storms have not been as bad as it sounds, the first rear was swapped out early at 4.5K as I was about to go on our euro trip last year, second rear did 6500, first front did 9K, and now this rear is toast at 3K miles. I wonder if the rear shock being shagged has worn it faster?

[-Ralph-]

the BT-021 were scary in the wet...... I wonder if the rear shock being shagged has worn it faster?

They haven't improved then, the BT020 I had on the SV was terrible i the wet.

The shock being shagged will shag your rear tyre too.

[Graciepants]

I was at the shops doing my essential camping supplies shopping:

1) 4 variety-pack size boxes of rice crispies
2) 2 tins of sausages in beans
3) A camping chair which, it turns out, is a child's camping chair
4) Cider

And I'm good to go :thumbsup:

do i need to bring food then? :smt104

[dizzyblonde]

possibly, depends if you want to starve or not!

I wouldn't worry too much because there is a shop type thingy on site. Or just grab some snacks on one of the fuel stops during the ride. :)

[Graciepants]

gotta be honest, i'd give the ostrich a go, and the kangeroo and the wild boar. i've eaten alligator before so i have no morals when it comes to food

[petevtwin650]

do i need to bring food then? :smt104

It's only two miles to Tyndrum which will do as both a breakfast and evening meal provider. Depends if you want to save money I guess. Warning, meals are not cheap in Scottyland although the all you can eat brekkie is damn good value at a fiver.

[dyzio]

...all you can eat brekkie is damn good value at a fiver.
Where did you find this?

[petevtwin650]

At the Tyndrum Lodge. Next to the Green Welly. Best bet is to get there early. They open at 7.30 IIRC and stuff yourself silly until the rideout. Might slow up your reactions up on the road though :)

[dyzio]

Me and Sally will probably camp close to that place ;)

aw man I get bad enough stomach cramps when I'm riding as it is anyway.... not gonna stop me though :smt081

What's the availability of ATMs and card machines in shops? (excuse my ignorance but we could be out in the sticks for all I know) Just wondering if I'll need to rely on cash.

[petevtwin650]

Bit of common sense required here. When we have a food stop and you're running low on cash seek out a cash machine in plenty of time before the leave time. I've not encountered any problems and all the petrol stations seem to take cards. Don't think there is a ATM in Tyndrum unless it's inside the Green Welly and you don't mind paying the fee.

Yeah that's what I usually do- just wondering if there were cash machines at all. Don't wanna have to bring a wallet full up with me then do a mrspeirs or something.

I didn't sleep last night.....just think what I'm going to be like on Thursday!!!!!!!!!

[Kilted Ginger]

there are atm's in oban definately, Invarary probably and the green welly possibly.
see the tyndrum (http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=129746) facilities thread for details about food etc,

The friday evening, you have the option of eating en route to tyndrum, you will be getting there either through Glasgow or Stirling and callander, all of which have numerous eateries or shops to grab and go. Alternatively eat at tyndrum, in the evening its limited to the food stop (chippie) the tyndrum lodge / paddys bar or the gw snack shop. Or head back down the A82 to the drovers inn.
Another thought if you are going the stirling roue there is a nice wee hotel in Doune that does good food.

There are no eating facilities at strathfilian, so its take your own or Tyndrum for breakfast, oban for lunch and tyndrum for dinner unless you buy food in oban to take back to the camp.

The site does have a kitchen with a cooker, microwave, toasters and kettles and, I think, utensils for general use. But bear in mind the other site users may be wanting to use them too.

Dunno if there are disposable ones, I never went into the shop, but each wigwam has a barbi pit and the shop sell the wood or even peat.

Sorry by eating facilities i meant someone serving you food, anything else you have to take/prepare your own.

Yeah, I knew what you meant KG :) , but you've reminded me that they do sell bacon rolls in the morning but the shop doesn't open early so I've no idea what time you would be able to get one.

Good to know about the new marker system.

most of it i assume would be common sense after last year and with riding in general beside if it got longer than a page you lot would turn off
it is meant to be a fun rideout - too many R&R's seem to take the edge off it

I have a confession to make, I've ****ed up the saturday meal despite Kilted Ginger's good work... I had put it to the back of my mind because he'd been so organised and ahead of the game with speaking to the carvery people in Tyndrum, and with everything else I've never finished the job. Huge apologies folks, especially to Kilted Ginger, very poor of me to maybe have wasted his good work.

But it might not yet be wasted, I'm going to give them a ring tomorrow and see how they're placed for dealing with numbers on saturday night. It's not the end of the world, we'll still eat, but this is a great option. Just about to start yet another thread on this.

Do I remember correctly, there are disposable bbq's available in the campsite shop?

They certainly sell them at the Green Welly

[V-twin]

I was out on a run with the bike club a few weeks ago and they use the same system of markers at junctions. That was fine. Just keeping up with them using 28bhp on a restricted SV was somewhat difficult, revving it off the limiter trying to keep up and uneven road surfaces didnt help. I certainly know my limits.

It'll be interesting to see what the route will be.

I'm sure you all know that Dyziowg has got a Falco, so he's one of us now :smt107

[northwind]

Good to know about the new marker system.


It is the exact same as last year's marker system :D To explain it in different words, the Leader (Careless Chucca) stops when he comes to a junction, and tells whoever happens to be next where to mark, leader carries on, marker stays where they are til I turn up. Simples! There are NO designated markers, but you might find that the various organisers and volunteers will stop to let you get away if they pass. (or, other people can also stop and let you away if they feel like it).

It's not difficult, so don't worry, I'll explain it on the day and all the volunteers know how it works, or if anyone's worried about it grab me before the ride. There's so few junctions on the route that most people won't ever be asked to mark, I think one of the sections has absolutely no junctions at all :cool:

dropped an important, rare nutty nut nut - oops! cant find it anywhere had a replacement ordered saturday 2 come in yesterday but today theyve turned round and said '7-10 days'!!!grrr

glad you reckon planz won't work ...woulda cost me £120!

BTW, its probably rolled into a bag, thats sat around on the floor, only to be found next week!!

Dunno, can anyone think of a way of fuelling it other than petrol :scratch: It's a pressure/sealed nut that links the fuel tank to the ghey f.injectionness. Tried regular dome nuts but they squirt fuel out of the welds.

Failing that, I've got the number of a man who'll hire a 33 brake gladys :p

Nope, thats the kind of thing you'll only get from Honda or..... a breaker that happens you have taken delivery of an identical bike from an insurance company write-off. It may be worth searching ebay for parts for that bike and see which power sellers have loads of parts, then phone them to see if they have the rest of bike the parts came from.

Of course Dizzy is absolutely right. If the bike hasn't left the garage which I assume it hasn't if it can't fuel, that nut still has to be in your garage somewhere, bike parts don't vaporise. Search the bike with a toothbrush poking into all the crevices, if it's not still trapped somewhere on the bike, search the garage slowly and methodically one square foot at a time from back left to front right and eventually you will find it, it has to be there somewhere!

I found the tank hat bolt under something or another last year in my shed. I ripped the place apart looking for it 6 months previously.

As Ralph says, theres lots of sellers on eaby selling assortments of job lot bolts n nuts off broken bikes.
I can bet its sat inbetween a cylinder somewhere.
Fingers crossed you'll find it, or get lucky on ebay.

[-Ralph-]

If you get really stuck, bring GP up on pillion (or she can get on the train) and call these guys...

http://www.perthmcs.com/bike_hire.php

If you are there to collect a bike at 9am on Saturday morning, you'll be back at the campsite in time for the start of the rideout.

[petevtwin650]

Tippet Motors used to be the dealer all the other dealers used to order their spares from. Dunno if they still are.

http://www.honda-tippetts.co.uk/

Is the nut magnetic? Could try a magnert if so.

[Bibio]

is it effectively a 'sealed' dome nut?

if it is then SS ones are one piece..

[-Ralph-]

I ripped the place apart

Which is exactly why you didn't find it until you were no longer looking, but it was there.

Lost things in the garage are one example of where the tortoise always beats the hare.

[Graciepants]

that nut still has to be in your garage somewhere, !

garage :confused: what is this strange thing you speak of?

have been given one of those pokey magnet stick things and am gonna try giving the bike a good poke tomorrow (when its daylight) as dave's positive its in the bike somewhere

otherwise its in the wilderness of my very unruley front garden (which orose may have the pleasure of seeing tomorow - sorry!)

an org member on here thinks he has the nut (found this out about an hour ago) so its all just a question of whether it gets here in time and/or its the right one

i'm meant to be going up with orose and dave, both who have naked bikes and so are gonna take a+b roads most of the way, so it'll take about 7 hours to get up there, and the thought of going pillion for that long makes me wanna die a little inside :pale:

however i will cross those bridges when i come to them, i'm still going lalalalaalaalala and being all positive thinking cos i AM gonna make it there, on my bike, somehow!!!

[dizzyblonde]

well fingers crossed the member on here gets it in the post tomorrow. First class should see it on Thurs. Got a rear master cylinder today for the Raptor, it was ordered yesterday.

FIngers crossed for ya, something will turn up(even out of the unruley garden) ;-)

[petevtwin650]

To late now but put a blanket, towel or groundsheet down when working in the garden. Easier to find lost bits.

Who says you'll be going pillion all that way, I'm sure Orose, being the gent he is, will let you pilot the triple some of the way.:cool:

Jimmy numbers in a camper van ! again.. briing it on-

:smt021It dropped down past the rear shock, past the little coolant tank, and all it's hoses and settled between cylinders 2&3 in a little crevace sheltered by some ghey engine bit we shook it over a bit but it dropped further underneath the engine bit and now seems to be totally innacessible without removing atleast the rear shock and cooling system. That doesn't sounds like a lot but it honestly would take some serious dismantleing to get at and I don't get back from work til late and we don't own a torch (grr) :( and there's always the possibility of something else going wrong! tried a telescopic doodah last night but it was too dark to see what I was doing. Got the part number in my car, but it's not a code red emergency yet we have the power of the forum + plan Z as a last resort (plan pillion can screw itself).

I blame honda [-(

[Dave20046]

What's this about bibio possibly not being able to attend?? :confused::thumbdown:

[JamesMio]

If you post the Part number on here, it might give others a chance to source it if there's a Honda dealer close to them. e.g. I've got one about half an hour away which I could nip down to if they've got it.

Worth a shot.

[Bibio]

use a wire coat hanger and a sticky white pad. cut and straighten the coat hanger then bend the wire into shape FIRST once in shape to get at nut attach a sticky pad then fish nut out...

when attaching sticky pad fold it in half over the wire then peel off the top protection paper...

[Dave20046]

Route to the nut is obscured by loads of crap :( nice tip though I'll try it tonight

[Bibio]

giv us the part number so we can see what we are looking for...

tiz amazing what nuts and bolts i have...

[Dave20046]

I'll try get the number when I can, I seriously doubt anyone would have anything like this lieing about though! It's like a completely watertight heavy duty dome nut (but not dome shaped...not that it matters) that fits a 12mm standard thread. Not sure how deep though.
Grace has a picture, honestly though there's one going in the post this morning so providing putting the bike bike together goes smoothly- I'm quite confident.

[dyzio]

It is the exact same as last year's marker system :D

Hmm... I thought it was the same people all the time last year, Careless Chucca, Fizz, Stuartyboy.

Sometimes I've passed Pete and Lissa marking a junction whilst having a cigarette. After passing them, I've noticed on the next junction a few miles down the road - it's Pete and Lissa marking again :scratch:

Well some of us like an excuse to make progress under the premise of "helping". Leaves the less confident riders to just concentrate on the riding and also it helps to see the same peeps at a junction. Not always possible of course to safely filter to the front as there can be a lot of ground to make up and everybody is going at a decent pace. If, however, we see a bike marking who would clearly rather not be, we'll take over and let them scoot off.
