Bugger  >:D bet you and many others were rather pissed. MV mmmm lotta shit goin on there ! Will take time to sort it..... but the new pres is a goer and will get it back on track  ;)
Make many changes after the Dyno run ?  8)
 
Some carb changes way too rich right through the range smaller jets and some needle changes nice and crisp now!
Yes there were a lot of pissed off people at Broadford everyone got offered the track April 30th but of course that barely suited anyone, the event was being run by MCR I hope they get their $6K refund
 
seeing as my Laverda's are still in their decades long hibernation location, I did visit them and gathered some parts and liteture.and just hung out with them, i think they are  speaking to me,and they are saying get us out of here!
 
Went abroad on the SF2 Saturday.
Started instantly after 2 months lay up.
Went into Belgium for a drink along with Corinne on her Street Twin.

65 km round trip to get the o?l circulating.

Today was bone dry, and (relatively) warm, so I went out for my first run of the season, on the Jota 120. Not a fast run, never got above 160 km/h even on the Autobahn ;)
The bike goes, handles and stops well, but I need to sort out the slipping clutch...
I have a spare set of Keith's kevlar plates, should do the trick.
But first I need to get the 1200 series 2 off the bike lift, and put it though the roadworthy test, not to be taken lightly in Germany.


 
Received the first pair of Malcom Coxs' SF2 pipes.
48 hours from door to door cross Channel.
Quality appears to be excellent.
Will try to mount them on the bike in the next two to three weeks.

Got a nice set of chrome triple downpipes from him for the Sprint.Bought my GT and SF twins" chrome pipes from Moto Storiche which are good too.Don t do those beauties though.
 
Do they fit, know for a fact malc has spent many an hour with richard slater to make sure his pipes are spot on, which they are imho, i got a collecter box for my sfc 1000 from macl and the worksmanship is second to none.
think its great that folks out there are making parts for our old  bikes
regards andy
