Hope you get it all sorted soon :)

As an aside bear in mind I have some contacts in Maroc and if I can be of any help once you're there ping me a PM and I can make some calls.

I'm also a few hours only from the Spanish ports so if anything goes major goofy in that region you have a point of contact, and a secure storing address etc etc.

(I'd expect that Mike54 should certainly be along anytime soon to tell you off and that you shouldn't take your adventure moto on .....erm......an adventure..... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: )


Enjoy your ride!!!


:)

cruising along nicely then it was almost as if I had hit the kill switch, it spins over ok but wont fire. Some suggestion by a guy at the side of the road that there was no compression?

So that will be the first thing I test when I get it back.

370 big bore kit ? :whistle:
