Possible Shed Meet & Camping
« on: July 20, 2009, 06:01:26 AM »
Boys, Girls and Jethro
Went over to John Goode's house yesterday to see if he had any parts for my CB250RS and to discuss his plans for his up-coming 'Round-The-World' travels (see 'Up and Away' thread). The upshot of which was parts to repair my clocks, and the thought that I could organise a shed meet at his house as a Thumper based garage sale to raise much needed funds. He has literally tons of stuff - SRX 600/400 and XT600 parts, some modified for racing in SuperMono some not, loads of other bike parts, wheels, tyres and paddock stands, plus associated workshop stuff ie. small lathe, MIG welder, compressor, drill press, pipe bender etc. etc. The list is endless with plenty of potential for finding bits for 'specials'. PLEASE NOTE this would be an everything must go sale!

So is there any interest in meeting at John's (date to be confirmed but possibly within the next six weeks) for a chin wag, cup of tea/coffee, garage sale come grand auction, and/or followed by camping Saturday night up in the Peak District (about thirty miles away)?

Let me know either way and I'll organise, OR contact John direct as he has lots of 'good shite' to get rid of!

Cheers
Boyd

Egad, if there is a complete SRX400 monoshock engine going I could be tempted to venture away from home! Having priced up parts to fix mine, I think it will be cheaper to buy a whole new second hand one. I know the SRX600 mono engine will go straight in, but then I'll need the box of sparks and the carbs as well.... Oh, am I spending my MT-03 fund - drat.

Only if you partake of the cold spoon whilst having a cough !
