Re: X3 Parts book

Re: Grimica Brake Caliper

Re: Where to find 3 1/2 Ignition Coil Formers ?

I got a bobbin from Paul Compton a couple of years ago- he had some made. Maybe there are some left?

Re: Winter riding vs. Winterisation

2 days ago it was just nippy enough to chivvy up my tree dahlias and remaining tomatoes. Today 14 degrees and warm enough not to need a fleece under my coat. Had a nice ride too. Softy southerner alert! I never just run a bike to warm it up though, no matter how tempting that may be. I would drain t...

Battery replacement

Blessed as I am with an under tank battery on a Coguaro, I am gradually losing cold cranking power. The battery has been in situ since 2020. The existing lump is a Motobatt MB18U.
