... really good rides in there dont discount McGuinness he takes a while to warm up. Hutcy seem to give up to fast as MD put in some stunning laps. Great racing

Andy get down to a local motor traders and pick up a cheap mechanics stethoscope. Great but of kit for what you need.

After a great suggestion from Blade, I've now managed to get my engine turning. I still can't turn it using the rear wheel but I can turn it using the front sprocket and a breaker bar (in 6th gear (wasntme) ). As I turn the engine ...

Hope you're all having a great time, & avoiding the floods & fuel strike issues in France that suddenly seem to be making the news.?

That's great news, especially as I too have Knox Handroids. I brought mine as I broke the knuckle of my little finger two years ago at Cadwell, and it despite being a minor injury it was debilitating in some respects for months ...

But otherwise all good, cheers for asking bruv!

Have a great trip everyone. Enjoy the ride and have a beer for me.

Have fun euro trips are a great laugh

Will look when I get back off holiday just chuffed it's a minor fault. Bike has warranty so will call kawasaki when I get home.

Rocket your a mechanical genuis. Genuinely appreciate all your patients, advice and bum tickling today. Your a bloody legend and a great mate

... if they're trying to tell me something but they even sent me a bottle of Nikwax leather cleaner for nothing! Seriously good customer services and great gloves (handroids). Thank you Knox! (allhail)

Watched some great racing at Cadwell, the MSG boys done well, Kingsley day was not so good, two dnf's, due to bike issues, was running really well up until then

Hopefully got some good pics as well, won't really know till I get home and look through them proper.

Great Perks thanks buddy (y) Hope you get sorted out quickly. Do you know what the actual fault is ? No it doesn't say on the website but just says it's now been rectified in manufacture,interestingly for bikes fitted with ...
