I was hoping to find a bar meal or a fish and chip shop Plenty of both Dai, everything is within easy walking distance. Can you google map it? Most are now published there. Best fish and chips is in Bampton St near the bottom, or there is always the Weatherspoons pub in Wellington Sq, cheap beer as...

Likewise Reg, as it happens just got back from a couple of days camping at Bridgetown on the Moors, blimey, lot of Pheasants running around, though my Whippets got rid of one of them, and a fair bit of B road resurfacing, hopefully will have bedded in a bit in a few weeks, actually passed the Gasco...

Mike, I don't think that you'll have too much trouble booking a room, look forward to meeting you. Peter & Alan, don't speak too loud! But a little bit of sunshine has been booked. Me and Karen are off to the Cochem on the Mosel Monday, back on 12th so shall start to organise a menu with the hot...

What I did with mine was adjust all the free play out of the cable, surprisingly makes a difference when pulling away slowly. :idea:

maybe that the pilot was a nutter of course.. :lol: She resembles that remark :D Very good bike, more than capable of showing up bigger capacity machines, Karen finds it very comfy, extra low seat fitted, suspension is budget and very limited in adjustment, though saying that seems to be pretty goo...

Sounds like the bike is all in order, has the previous owner messed with it? He fitted a full system, any other mods?

Hi Dave & Gus, From what I understand reading on here and the Pelican, the 12s came originally with a base map reading approx 122-124 at the crank, then for what ever reason when a bike had a BMW service (possibly 06 through 08) and was plugged back into the diagnostics a new map was loaded whic...
