Aye Andy,

EEEeeeh! Sutton Bank?

And I note that old ewe gets everywhere! Or is it one of the now "lifestyle" camelids in North Yorks, as on 'Yorkshire Vet'? I prefer the guanaco myself.  ;)

Toodle pip, Bill

Prefer Shostakovich if I'm honest. I'm strange like that.

Regarding a cuppa it'll most likely be next spring for me. I only drink tea between the months of March to October. Bike will be taken off the road after next weekends run down to Stafford. Got a few things planned for Norman.

Fingers crossed Martin that it's nothing to serious and they can get it sorted out for you, I hope it hasn't tainted your view on the bike to much. If it has  I know where there mite be a lovely little ktm390 coming up for sale shortly 😀😀.
Fingers crossed mate 🤞🤞 and keep us posted on developments ...cheers, Michael
Got a phone call today it's ready and they are dropping it back tomorrow:it was a decomposing fuel filter in the petrol tank cutting the fuel flow/ pressure.

Reet do
Took the KTM out for a blast today and all seems well .

Well at 55 n arf..... I must admit I can't get it up like I used to, plus when I do get it up i can't keep it up for quite as long as I could when I was a younger man. 😢😢

Have been to work on the beast today and it's still running as intended-these bikes really are a great  modern thumper.
Are there many owners on here?

Finally built a shelter/lean too type construction to keep the weather off the bikes. Its a monster of a thing that fills my whole back yard, but needs must. Total cost, about £300. It will house four bikes comfortably, plus hopefully most of my associated sh1te  ;)
watch this space, as there could be a considerable sale of bikes and parts, as I want to get down to one bike, and no spares   ;)

I think a big well done to Ian Soady for starting this thread. It certainly has drawn us all in.

Thanks both.

I can't make Stafford (and TBH have come to dislike those huge autojumbles with the crowds and queues to get in) so please have a virtual drink on me.

I will be at the NMM open day on the 27th however. Carrying a folded copy of the Guardian and with a red carnation in my buttonhole. Or maybe not.
