Brands 31/03/09

well the race is now on to get the bike fixed in time for tues. great flippin timing eh?!

So what is the problem… Not Italian or a Triumph; so what is the excuse?

anyone still keen to go to this that couldn’t get a space? my bike is defo still gonna be screwed come tuesday, so will have to sell on my booking :frowning:

damn thats a shame, sorry to hear that

Dude, are you doing the evening session? I am doing the day, so might have a bike spare for the evening if you fancy it?

really appreciate the offer mate. thanks!

to be honest, i dont really have the money to repair my r1 at the moment so wouldn’t feel right using someone else’s bike in case something happened to that also.

was actually trying to work out if i could run my bike as a total loss system for a couple of sessions :wink:

What do you need i can lend you some parts if it helps ? And same as Elad i have a spare bike if your stuck.

No problem mate…also would be worried as i might bin it before you get there and you would have wasted your journey :w00t:

Whats up with the bike JB?

genny has mangled itself big time. Needs new stator and rotor. Neither are cheap, nor the labour to fix. Then there’s also the potential of the engine being damaged from debris from the genny

All a bit sh-t really

Oh really? that’s a hole in ya boat, thought they were bullet proof those rice grinders… how has it done that then? you got someone sorted to fix it?

I thought so too - ironic given the among of banter I got when I had the ducati

Beats me - have put up some pics in the thread in ‘bike talk’. Could be rubber cushes. As far as I can tell the rotor should cleanly spin around the stator and for some reason it stopped doing that and chewed it

aaaarrrrggggghhhhh!!!

might have to pull out of this one too, 1 because im all flued up and feel well $hit

and 2, been at the workshop all day today and yesterday getting everything ready, and found a problem with the carbs, had loads of people round to sort it but its got every1 baffled :frowning: Just waiting on one more person to come and have a look :(…

unlucky stacey. flippin bikes eh?

you guys should ride Triumph… Except Curtis’, they never go wrong… :smiley:

My bike is in peak condition and ready to roll :slight_smile:
