the new year

Well the stephens day classic run went great, i didn’t break down, i got a go off of a dt230 and i avoided the rain. On the other hand the damp road flung lots of crap about the place and i fecked up all the photos i took.

you can look at the shots anyway on my mums picasa album.

mucky jacket:

Even got some in the airbox, got that cleaned up and installed some lighter rollers again since the jetting feels spot on.

Treated the scooter to some duck tape.

Had a quick spin into town today, massive improvement in acceleration, must get a proper pipe one day. fuel consumption is as bad as ever at 7.55L/100km, that was at the classic run, it’ll probably be worse now with the lighter rollers.

    same as it was before i changed the carb, was only running standard rollers to make it easier for me to jet it. three light ones and three standard ones, around the 12.5g mark i think.

    Hello from Canada.

    I’m enjoying all the fun your having with all those machines 🙂

    I have some humor for you… I give them to you for fun only okay…

    1) Was there a fire sale on Red paint?
    2) Red paint does not require sanding & prepping, especially on jeep frames.
    3) Why weld the tuk tuk, red paint can hold it together.

    Haha.

    Anyway keep having fun. You should look into media blasting and DIY powder coating. http://www.eastwood.com/hotcoat-powder-coating.html I think maybe caswell in the UK sell a DIY gun… (It’s good for little MC bits).
