Re: Not friendly ride - April 25th
Thanks Si for arranging this one.
Was really great to get out in the sun shine and munch some miles.
Had to have some strong words with my bike sat nav for embarrassing me in front of my group after getting a little lost on the way to Minehead. But once sorted out seem to be able to keep to the planned route.
Great to see so many people out on a ride and worked really well with the groups of 6 and different start times.
Really enjoyed it.
Oh and came home and got my first Covid Jab so result of a day

Re: Not friendly ride - April 25th
Cheers to all that turned up to play yesterday. Weather was pretty good, roads were empty for most of the run. Company was as always top notch.
As far as I'm aware the only casualty of the day was my ktm, there's always a first time.
Looks like the seal Behind the clutch slave cylinder and that the push rod goes through has decided it's time is over.
So new seal, replace the oil and filter and mineral oil for the clutch to be ordered, then fingers crossed.....

Re: Not friendly ride - April 25th
That's a fairly common problem on the 1190Adv I believe. Never happened on mine but I think plenty have replaced their slave cylinders with ones from Oberon

Re: Not friendly ride - April 25th
I was reading on that. The slave is fine, it's the push rod seal that's let the side down.

Re: Not friendly ride - April 25th
Bit late on replying but thanks Si for sorting the route, Thanks to the group leaders and tecs.
Had to get home slightly early so missed out on the end at Pen Inn. Really fun day, great company and just about adequate mick taking.
Catch y'all soon...

Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..
