Feeling rather smug
Sat, 30 May 2009 00:16:08 +0100
So the 250k+ K75 is due an MOT shortly and the forks were leaking plus
the steering head bearings were notchy.
Took the forks off (let's ignore the bit where the drift slipped and the
hammer went into the clocks, OK?) and drained the oil out. Oh dear...
not only had the seals let oil out it looks like they'd le ...

Quite a bit gone on recently, mainly as house move is being delayed.
Most of the electrics are sorted - although as I got ...

She won't let me have it unless I get the bikes out of the garage.
What a pity.

Do this lot look genuine, or has anyone

them?

An afternoon of fettling
Mon, 25 May 2009 16:58:50 +0100
Anybody here know about XL250 Motosports? Apart from me, that is
(obviously).
I've tried to make use of the bank holiday to get the Laverda and the
Motosport closer to being roadworthy. The Laverda is almost there, but

usually quite good with bik ...

Little Laverda
Sat, 23 May 2009 20:35:03 +0100
This Laverda has been sitting unloved in my garage for 10 years or more
and, at last, I've decided I ought to do something about it ... but
what? Sell it? Tart it up and sell it? Do it up properly and ride it?
"Wot's it wurf?" is probably a key factor in making the decision.
It's an LZ125 - the sports ve ...
