Re: Oil and filters

Hi Twisty, Yes I read every page. Great work too. Im kind of hoping that a few forum members may want a couple of filters otherwise I will have a few to many, which does'nt bother me too much, perhaps I can use them as paper weights. It was the work that you carried out that swung it for me to buy m...

Oil and filters

Bike oil is shockingly priced, if like me you change your oil more frequently it gets very expensive, what ever make of bike you have. The recomended oil is a 4T 10w60 fully synthetic race oil for the Corsaro 1200. I have read its specs it states its designed for thumpers etc. I am going to try to b...

Re: Sammy miller museum day cancelled

To one and all, who would be interested in going, we could meet there, have a pub lunch and put a fare few miles on our tyres too.
I/we can plan a decent route using new forest roads, down to poole key too.
