At least you had a ride dude, cold or otherwise. I got a mile down the road, the bike cut out, wouldn't re-start, so i had to call out the breakdown people. :(

Fingers crossed for ya Ed!!
Consider that your Gixer had such a simple easy life right up until you bought it, and now it's terrified to go out with you on board?? :shock:


Poor thing :lol:

Had the family visits to do down south this weekend and had to suffer watching fab sunshine and a load of shiney bikes brought out just to remind me my bike was aprox 200miles from my location :cry:

PS: Ed if you need a hand with anything for the beastie, call me cos right now I'm between jobs, so if I can assist we can sort something

cheers for the offer dude, but i'll be alright. It's electrical, not mechanical, so i'll track it down with the. aid of my trusty multimeter and a paperclip

:o Blimey Ed was that you with the black gixxer and a big white S.O.S Motorcycle Recovery Van on the left before the lights that leads down to Holywell Fire Station???

I was heading towards Whitford around 12.15 and wondered who the unfortunate biker was? ...was thinking to myself that as it was such a lovely sunny day, he'd be cursing that his day had been ruined by a breakdown :shock:
