Just like to add a massive thankyou to Max and Heidi for giving up some of their Saturday arvo to come pick me and my girls up. This sort of thing shows just how wonderful you two are.
The bike isn't in a good way :( it's got 32000 on it and has had servicing every 6000kms. Lots of smoke, vibrations and oil at the same time. Oil all over the left side of my jeans and boots. Wasnt doing anything strenuous on it, cruising at 100 in sixth for most of the trip. It still had plenty of power and didn't notice anything feeling odd... Just went splat and dropped it's guts. As soon as it happened I grabbed the clutch which seemed to kill the engine and put both legs down while I used about 100m pulling it up slowly with just the front brake.
The job to get her running again might be put to the background for a little while unfortunately... Me and the mrs have just paid for a 3 week holiday in Turkey. The bike may have to sit tight until we return.
I hope to get her up and running asap but there are a few things I have to do before that happens. Max has very generously offered to take a look and help me put a motor in when the time comes. Ive reminded the mrs its my birthday in July ;)
Anyone hazard a guess about what's bruck on it?
