'Ere 'ere is the EAR Megathread

Already this weekend, fixed the van, valeted and now for sale on fleabay. Found out it's near impossible to fit a parrot to a mazda 2, so ordered a Bury instead!!, Bits to do in the garden and DIY, off to a family p!ss up this afternoon.

Back from rainy Yorkshire, a mad two days, 600 miles, loads of rain, bike needed bump starting twice, im totally exhausted cos i havent slept properly for a few days, but the roads there cant help but make me smile

Glad to hear you are back safe KJ - I know what you mean about Yorkshire roads - just a shame they are in Yorkshire hehe

Fitted the Power Commander to my bike this weekend - bit of a faff as you have to disconnect the lambda sensor in the exhaust and remove a pin from the ECU - first chance I had to ride it was this morning and it definitely feels crisper already. Will be booking it into here hopefully so I can get it mapped properly - cant wait

My bike is a *********** ********* ********* ********* ******* and i ******* HATE IT!!!!

It did 300 miles yesterday, the reg/recs new, the alternators fine, how come i just tried to start it and its ******* dead AGAIN. AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH

Tonight was gonna be my last chance to ride til next monday...

Maybe the old reg/rec killed the battery.

Yeah i guess. Cant afford a new battery though so i've posted in 'stuff wanted' in case anyones got an old one lying around theyd like to off-load for a tenner, but i guess its a long shot!

Although, i do happen to know where theres a nice silver curvy with an ideal battery not too far away........

As usual plenty of chocolate in this household, so I'll smuggle out any surplus choccie on the May rideout, just for you KJ.

Choc wouldn't be the answer anyway, just some free time to get things done and a few degrees warmer on the outside themostat.

I know its warm er, but skinny chaps like me need it much warmer

I'm sure I was walking about in shorts and a t shirt last April.

Yesterday I could see my breath, even though the car temp gauge said 11 degrees

What size battery is in a curvy sv?
I know its 12v but what amp?

I may have a brand new spare one here...
