Any plans for riding tomorrow? Or is everyone busy watching IOM TT? :)

Too dense to know what that even is. I'm in unless its a monsoon. Spent a pleasant couple of hours cutting the paint properly on the Jet with Meguiares. Polished up good. It's the shizzle now.

It's the Isle of Man TT. We're in as well assuming the weather is no worse than last Sunday.

How about:

- 10 a.m. at southside Italian Centre (51 Ave and 106ish).

- Drink, eat and swap lies.

- Ride about causing mayhem and panic.

- End up at the west end Wid Earth at 1 p.m.

Pinched fuel line + uphill + Lambretta = Soft seize!

Dooh!

Lesson learned? Sleep Sunday mornings and leave the fricken fuel line alone!

No serious damage? Not that a seize of any sort is ever good...

Of all the days to not have the gopro. That was the most eventful ride we've had in a while!! Next time I'll have it with me.

How does the top end seem, Angelo? I hope its not too bad. You reacted properly and really quick!

I think everything is ok. It seemed good for the rest of the ride. I have been told you can get away with a few soft seizes before you need to bore it out to the next size up ( if you are lucky) I have a +1 piston sitting in the shelf
since my last seize, but that was almost 3 years ago.

Reaction time can save you during these times, I'm glad I'm not to old that my reaction time hasn't dropped to much ;0)

I agree that Crazy guy in White fan Footage would have been interesting!
