So a new side pod cover is needed.

My old laser lid it is then.

Snap (literally), exactly the same happened to me last night. I'm wearing Spiers spare lid

£30 for new pods mate

Well it looks like it is the clutch plate. Seemed to get gradually worse on the way back. And as predicted the garage said it's the clutch plate (started to get play in the lever on the way back). Thats another thing to get sorted before France then.

On the plus side while I was in there I saw a very nice K8 GSXR-600 with 3500 miles and 1 owner for about £5500. Now, if I could just match 5 numbers tonight......

We got 5 numbers 2 weeks ago - that only wins you about £2k you know!

Why would you possibly try and ruin the one thing I was clinging to as a positive from the day.....

It all helps... I'd only have to find £3500 then.

You could sell your body, and Specialone's.

Of course depending on whether that was for sexual favours or medical research you'd then raise either 26p or about £450.
