Or simply fix the problem by putting a generous amount of silicone grease in the end of the spark plug boot.
Still get the fenda extenda, keeps loads of muck off the motor.

Pick an answer:

A. I was local to half the UK population at some point on my last visit.

B. After that initial 5000 mile jump there's really quite a few! ;)

C. The term 'Billy no mates' was so named in my honour.
Before that it was known as Jack no mates. :-dd

D. Not too many close by as I'm the org's only US member. (something I'm even thankful for)
Since 2008, a fly in the soup, a thorn in the side.
Hey, Someone has to do it. :p

Welcome.......some don't have motorbikes at all anymore - but still stick around and still attend AR's etc. Nice bunch all these Org'ans. :drink:

Re: Quick hello from a newbie!!

I'm guessing the renthals alter the entire feel of the bike? They look amazing though! This Christmas list is getting a lot longer!

Pedals sound much healthier!

So are you guys all heading to the AR?

Shoot them now!!!
Ready, aim...No wait!!! I am one of them.
Shoot the other bloke!
You need an insider, someone who's been to an AR. ;)

Hannah, sorry for the derail.
Threads here do tend to change directions at times.
Really hope you will feel welcome here and will hang around longer than any septic.

Re: Quick hello from a newbie!!

Don't worry, you wont be able to get rid of me that easily, even if you do talk about Americans!! :D

Re: Quick hello from a newbie!!

Psst... oi regulars, has she mentioned a bloke yet or any same sex preferences?

Errm... Welcome to the forum, young lady. You should avoid Le Mans because it's full of boring cars and get yourself to the AR.
