Title: Do I have to hand in my membership card?
Post by: Andy M on August 16, 2006, 09:24:49 AM

I'm now ,once again, thumperless. The Bullet has gone to it's new home (where the local roads will make it much happier than the M-62) so I'm down to my split-single-with-timing-chain-up-the-middle-thumper (Triumph) and new MZ (double action thumper?). Guess I'll only be allowed to join in the camping stove collectors side of things now :-(.

As a follow up to my post way down the old list asking about a practical bike that'll do motorways I must apologise and thank everyone. After all your great advice about SRX's etc, I'm afraid the smell of 2-stroke oil was too much for  someone who's first real bike made lovely clouds of blue smoke and the crazy frog noise way before the annoying thing was even thought of. The new bike is the best MZ i've ever ridden, taking the 301 piston to the ETZ frame seems to have made a work on genuis.

So, in my new guise as thumperless thumper club member, did I tell anyone about how I got a Crusader cup to work with a Trianga burner......

Depends if the stove is a twin or single burner!

I wouldn't worry too much Andy, I think you'll find this a club for 4 stroke single cylinder enthusiasts, so as long as your enthusiastic about thumpers I don't suppose anyone would ask for your membership card :-)

If desperate I have a CG125 lump in bits you could borrow.  It is 4-stroke single and is a sroad worthy as any of my other 'bikes'.
