First Drive
Pdlewis - 7/3/09 at 04:43 PM

Wow just taken the beast down to a private industrial estate near me for its first run above 3mph and my god its fast on such a high now makes the years worth of work worth while!!

She pulls so well and changes gear fine im just not sure the engine sounds right as theres a ticking noise whcih I think is coming from the rocker cover. So will have to take it somwhere post SVA to have it checked over. The only other issues i had was the breaks they were binding and had freed afer the run out but the pedal had gone spongy so i have re-bled them but dont think ill get it out again before the SVA.

The only big job remaining is to set the ride height and wheel gemetry which im not to confident about.

Almost ready for the SVA now I got my date this week but got to change it as MNR dont have any loan kits avalible on the 24th when it was supposed to be.

Just thought id share
