Thanks mikeyboy, very informative day,
Good to meet all of you there, thanks for all of the tea, coffee, sausages and bread rolls, cakes, biscuits, flapjacks and chilly and cheese,
Did I mention there was food, ( that'll be THE BEAR drooling)
Cold ride there and the facking Sat nav took me to the wrong village, fack knows why I bothered using as I know my way there anyway, but as I updated the mapping yesterday I thought I'd give it a run out before I go to Germany in a few weeks.
So I was last to arrive,
Anyway I certainly know a lot more about these bikes than I did this morning, cheers guys,
Garry

Same thing happened to me on my first visit, nearly missed the breakfast

I have edited your post to reflect the truth of the day

Very informative and interesting day during which we were well fed and watered. Worth doing even if you don't want to service your own bike, at least you'll know what's supposed to happen.


Big shocker for me was discovering you're supposed to clean your bike, apparently at least once a year, not sure what that's all about.

Thanks Mike and I hope you find all the bits for your bike to put it back together

A combination of the company, Duncans' food and Mikes' expertise all contributed to make a great day.

As has been said even if you have no intention to ever take a spanner to your bike attending this sort of event and seeing things that might
not be done at a dealer service,may inspire you to have a go.

Cheers Mike. a thoroughly enjoyable day.

Steve.

Absolutely brilliant day. Every aspect of servicing a hexhead covered, including bleeding the infamous servo-assisted brakes. That plus food and excellent company made it a day to remember for all the best reasons.

He even arranged lovely weather Cracking day learning about our wonderful 1200's although the cleaning thing went way over my head

Thanks Mike and Duncan for a splendid day and anyone trusting Mikeyboy with their bike can be assured that it will get platinum service.
