Congratulations Gus, must be an amazing and emotional time. All the best to Sally and Bibi.

Our Sam is just 8 weeks old, its been the sharpest learning curve - prepare for loads of well meaning (and often conflicting ) advice and loads of baby goodies.

FWR always seemed to give the best deal in London from the admittedly few calls I made around suppliers.

Maybe that's changed, I've done so few miles on the bike of, I only put a new front on last year - thinking about it, I think the rear is an old pilot road....

Unless you have the patience of a saint, mechanical nouse and decent tools, I'd take it to local engineering firm... I have never had any joy with them and ended up drilling the whole caboodle out and using a bolt or helicoil but then again I have none of the above required attributes. Having said t...

Until recently I've always used those cheapo Pathan 2 finger things from HG. I get through 1 pair a year before the lining bursts - they are very warm but don't look too substantial from a skidding down the tarmac perspective. Currently have a pair of Dianese Goretex gloves which seem to be bearing ...

pilot road 2s from FWR in oval on mine, they seem to last and I've no complaints with grip or handling.

Cheers again

Might well be consulting the collective Dad wisdom of the board in the future.

I'd go with valves (for guitars) but marmite :shock: its technology pure and simple - means nothing in itself, its how you use it that makes it meaningful or not. Pencil or pc... we can write with either. To dismiss one over the other is kind of missing the point. the cheapo garmin I've got often to...

cheers guys.

another night survived... they're buggers aren't they.

but very cute.

baby Samuel born on 13th at 4.54am 10 days early and a healthy 7lb11. Mum and baby doing well. Dad knackered already and we're only 2 days in

S sulking, neglected outside bedroom window.. (although I did treat it to a new tail light bulb ...)

Ade

Glad to hear he's ok and up and about - hope he mends well..

I've yet to have a diesel moment - It would appear it is just a matter of time

I hope I can manage as long as your Dad without an off.

put a thread on here: http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/index.php and you'll get a load of feedback, plus do a few searches. I bought a 91 C124 with only 51k on it last December.
