"Make yourself useful and wipe my butt" springs to mind...

Did anyone else see that moped covering in lights? What a bright idea!
Jace told me off for laughing at it too loudly...
Just... just call me Danny!

Glad you all had a good night.

I didnt get home till 11:40. I was waiting for three hours for the RAC man :( He couldent get it to start without the fuel tap being on the 'prime' setting. Apparantly my carbs need adjusting and balancing.

if he couldnt get it started except on "prime" check your vacuum hose between top of carb (or maybe intake rubber) and petcock

Jonnyyyy!! Ahhhh, seriously, I felt SO guilty after we left!
It was going fine until you conked out, I pulled over and made sure you were okay - and we all waited for ages until you told us all to go on ahead... how're things now?

I wasnt chucking it in it did it!!

I was nearly on the speed limits some of the time (like as we went past the police car I was doing 30! :oops: )

Was a good run back I thought. Thanks for the company :lol:

Nothings changed yet, When I get home from work I'm going to see if I can sort out this fueling problem, its probably somthing stupid like one of the pipes has come loose on the petrol tank tap. I'm taking it to M.G. motorcycles in abbotskerswell later, see if he can sort out the carb balancing. I sorted out a leak I had in my exaust system yesterday. Should be all ready to go by the end of the weekend!
