  1. Up here Shell V Power 98 octan, it says E5 on the pump, but has no bioethanol. Shell E10 95 octan with 10% bio.   Esso also have 98 octan.   Circle K only E10.   Some of the rescue organizations have started to complain about like an ATV or similar been sitting for some time, and having starting problems, water.

    Well I use 98octan, probably not neceseary when I read what some of the smarter guys explain.  Something from earlier days hanging in there, leaded fuel and 104 octan in the RB Mopars  :rasta:.

    Cheers Tom.

    I updated the reporting for my last outing done Saturday 22/23 July 2023, under a hard weather....

    I have now done 40 stops out of the 50;

    I am wondering if I should do the 10 remaining in one go, or split them into two.

    If I cover the last 10 stops in one trip, it is 1731 miles.

    If I split them, it becomes 2648 miles. 

    Covering 1731 miles in three days should be possible. But not with these current temperatures. Also, it means that I would have completed the tour in July, and maybe I should leave some stops for later...

     

    Well done in those temps. Barcelona 02,  43c, coming from up north well dressed, TERRIBLE. When over 37c it gets warmer the faster you go. Remember the rear brake plastic container melted, no leak though.  Just a 6600km trip right.  
    Cheers Tom.

    I'll bet that costs a couple of cents in winter. :whistle:

     

    I hope the shanty is well insulated....

     

     

    PS: mine isn't well insulated or well heated. I think I might perhaps be a little jealous. You bastard. B)

    Anything for the bikes :bier:.

    Cheers Tom.

    The read temperature in my garage is 40 degC, feels like 45, and you get absolutely soaked in 10 minutes of light work...

    Norway feels like a dream!

    Good and bad things all over. Have a buddy in Houston, doesn’t ride much, to hot and a bit unsafe.  Cheap Quotas up here :bier:.

    Cheers Tom.

  6. May be no difference, just knowing where it's set.  Does she she need a second coming back to idle ? Inspect trottle wire, specialy where it's connected to the trottle body. Seems the bracket can be bendt a little releaving some strees for the fine wire.

    Cheers Tom.

    It's actually safer too!

    Crawling along at 100kph in a lot of scenarios means you're MORE LIKELY to lose concentration than if you're sitting on 160k....

    At that speed you ARE concentrating on what you're doing!

    Ha ha 100kph on the Nullabor especially after a couple of days of travel IS dangerous but the rozzers will happily relieve you of your hard earned!

    Cheers

    Ps back in the day the cops weren't too bad either as many were bike nuts too and understood...unlike many of todays twats who've swallowed the govt BS hook line and sinker!

     

    EXACTLY. 

    Cheers Tom.

  9. #1, try well known relays. #2,  extra start relay.  It's all here on the forum. Very seldom some strange things going on, not been mentioned here before.   What I have learned about the V11, WHAT a forum, THANKS.

    Cheers Tom.
