Sunday morning scooter puttering
Will be puttering on Raz's (and our) friend Paul's Lammy. He's lost spark, or at least can't remember where he put it. Also Giovanni will be bringing a 100 Sport by to have a look at the wiring. Festivities kick off at 9 am.
That went very well. Paul's was very straight forward. New Bosch plug to replace the fouled NGK and we were away again. Giovanni's was quite a bit more work. The usual chasing down bad grounds and crossed up wiring. We got all the DC electrics working and also sorted throttle cable adjustment and a some other things. Few more parts to order and he should (touch wood) be good.
John, Igor, David and Yarko came by and a very good time as had by all.
Next week we ride!

Sounds like was fun, or at least educational.
John-hoping to connect soon with you guys but had to take a weekend job on top of this regular job for now for a bit. Hoping to chat about that clunking sound when I brake that we tried to resolve at your house, came back soon after leaving your place of course as these things do, but it's still stopping fine-I didn't take off the wheel but otherwise tried to explore on my own. I think maybe I am just bashing my wheel in my sleep on purpose so I have an excuse to see you guys as miss the fun-working for a living is for the dogs.....
Hope your all having a great summer. Had my Derbi going 115/hr most of the way back to Edmonton from Lac St. Anne with a good tailwind after a visit to mothers (guess I should mention that I was going 80 full out on the way there against the wind lol)......Put a thousand KMs on the little fella in the last two months alone. I have used my car less that 5 times since April, kinda nice. Cheers.

Of course as soon as you emailed back the clunking sound stopped. That said before it did the front brake stiffened up a couple days prior. So now stiff brake is there but clunking sound gone, and still stopping just fine!

630 it is. No Pizza I guess.....
Th oil is just an extra I owe ya, and an excuse to drop by-the scoot I suspect is mostly okay, or has some sorta minor issue that just requires your expertise I think, and I just need your reassurance. See you then.
