Re: NC500

Heard the Bently club were taking over 100 Bentlys round last weekend. They'd fill up every passing place!
Loads of mobile homes, cyclists & walkers.
Hope you get the weather. Enjoy.

Re: Fueling problems. Cutting out

Mate put an iridium plug in his 650 & it cut out every time he slowed for passing places. Put the original plug back in & she ran as sweet as a nut.

Aye, loads of the new UK-Euro floating about now.
