Well done!

Great choice of bike too. :niceone:

Ask Dangerous about the nasty little habit they have of running out of fuel in the middle of nowhere, so that you have to resort to riding pillion on ageing XJs or SVs and sexually assaulting their respective riders. A common fault apparently. :Pokey:

That may be so Biff if they have a displacment of 1000cc.... but at 250cc I shouldent think that Johnny will have the same problem, and FWIW I had no complants from the riders of the XJ and SV :D

Iwant to get some photo done too but it rains........dont want to see the gray sky/back ground !!

I had a littil problem start up my VTR this morning..
did ask a friend who is a car mechnic he told me to use car battery (its a 12V battery on my VTR) to jump start so i did.. and let it run for 5~10min then stop the engine and try to start again but it wont... so i try again .... then it stop again .... so i start again with jump leads then decide to took it for a ride ......so i ride about half hour back to my garge and stop the engine then start again and it works ....
Is it because the battery getting old or i did something wrong?? it does have some white powder thing on the positive side of the battery... i have clean it out b4 i try jump start.....

White powder is a acid so use hot water to remove it..... sounds like the batt is nackered, time for a new one but 1st put it on a charger over night.... might just need a tickle up.

Just bump start the beeagr, that's what I do with mine when shes a bit narky. No fancy electronic ignition or other gizmos on the VTR, just carbs and a spark plug (two, actually).
