Club Ride - L friendly - Sun 20th April

[MGST]

Sorry fellas, I'm not coming now. I just realised Sunday 20th is V8 Supercars in Hamilton. So I'll be propping up the lounge suite cheering on anyone in a Holden ( except Paul Morris and Russell Ingall ). You boys ( and girls? ) have fun

[BANZAI]

Nice to meet some of you guys at Strata yesterday.

Hey Stephen, it must be MGST's bike I saw at near HSB Building parking that I was talking about.

I WANT ONE!!!!

[MGST]

Well Mr Banzai, it *may* be for sale around October / November time when I leave the Land of the Long Refugee Queue and head over to the big piece of red dirt. But I may keep it and take it with me. Depends how good the offers are...

[BANZAI]

If you have seen my previous thread about 50cc Honda, im pretty broke at the moment...

I can spend $1000+ on bike but I think your ones gonna cost more than that I suppose....

[Macstar]

Got my cast off today!!! Turns out a bone in my wrist is just chipped not broken. Even if I did have my bike back though, I don't think the wrist would be up to a Sun spin unfortunately...

[motorbyclist]

farking sweet as dude!

i know a westie neighbour of mine rode his dirtbike with a similar cast on his right hand. the riding itch was worse than the wrist pain

[shingo]

Someone come on the 250 coro loop with a wrist cast on as well, so it can be done.

I can't make it. My fork oil is leaking like there's no tomorrow. :@

[EJK]

Uh oh... Sounds like trouble... Time for another Steves spanner night?

[klyong82]

I can't make it. My fork oil is leaking like there's no tomorrow. :@

Stevo must have sabotage it since it is a Honda while it was there...

[Squiggles]

I can't make it. My fork oil is leaking like there's no tomorrow. :@

the seals gave way?
Both forks or just one?

you didnt have any pitting below the triple clamp

[Magua]

They're both leaking. I've removed the wheel, getting to the forks. Where can I find a bolt with a 14mm head? 14mm allen keys are fucking expensive.

[Squiggles]

I dont remember what sized bolts those were that we used... they werent special or anything

Hmm, both, perhaps grab some new seals from cycletreads? They had a lot of them there on a rack and a catalogue, i got some for the dr250 from there

[Magua]

They would have been 14mm, that's what size is needed. I'll try flipping one of the seals over and pumping the fork to see what happens before replacing them.

Edit: Going to the bolt shop tomorrow!
