Ive been led to believe 22 is a mess at the moment, due to melting over the summer... probably won't bother you, but just in case you didn't know i thought i would say.

have a good ride!

Thanks for the ride, sorry we had to leave but just as well.

Interesting ride back one very low assed bike then a minor power failer, the tyre rubbed though some wiring. Sitting on the side of the road in that heat wasn't fun but got it running again and made it back so all good.

cheers

What happened to it? I asked DEATH_INC. (twice) but couldn't understand him with my helmet and ear plugs on.

After getting home and leaving the bike in the garage for a while, I noticed a small puddle of coolant under the radiator, looks like a stone has punctured it.

Other than that, good ride. :niceone:

The rear shock linkage broke. Was a pretty good day, though I did have one big whoops moment on some melted tar...oh, and the small taxi issue if course, but otherwise it was a great ride.

the dogbones or the lever arm thing or one of the mounting points? lucky he was able to ride back.

I forgot the taxi. Must've blocked it out of my memory.
