Title: Mentioned in dispatches............
Post by: mini-thumper on November 30, 2006, 08:41:58 AM
The club gets three mentions in the current Classic Motorcycle Mechanics, all relating to Stafford. Page 22, 2nd. in Best Club Stand & Best Mixed Make Club, and on page 47 Pat gets in a good plug whilst asking for information about a brake caliper. Plenty of pictures of clubs either side of ours, Z1300 & Katana Owners, but sadly not us.

Am I becoming paranoid about some VJMC conspiracy?

Either off a DT125LC or XT350 Doesn't matter which as the only differance is to the fork leg mount. EBC catalogue quote same part No for pads etc. and a whole host of other bikes which took this type of calliper.

Happy bunny me :-)

Looking on the Classic Mechanics website I found a picture of Boyd and I think Martin sitting round the "campfire"

Can't seem to find it on their web site Bruce. Do you have a link for it, or page address?
