Re: Weekend overnighter 27th & 28th April

I'm up for that. I can carry fuel. Confirm no water at campsite. See you Midvale 7.30 on 27th.

Bolton.

Re: Weekend overnighter 27th & 28th April

Great doing it. I'd assume its prudent to carry a full 10L fuel can, some waternd.a bit to eat and plenty to drink.

Re: Weekend overnighter 27th & 28th April

I'm interested Cookie. I 'm a novice on dirt though. What sort of level of off road experience is required? Mine hovers just above zero.

Cheers

Re: Peaceful Bay 2013

Hi. Wondering what route you are taking. I live in Serpentine and would rather not ride 65+ kms North into town only to turn round and ride out South again. Thinking i could pick you up along the way somewhere maybe?


Cheers

Peaceful Bay run

I just called and booked a spot for my tent near the Albany VMCC crew. Fay at the campsite was unaware that BMWMCCWA are coming. She said we need to book ASAP as few spots left (long weekend). If you are going to book a spot, do it now and tell Fay (98408060) you need to be near the Albany VMCC crew...

Re: 98 R1100GS strange noises

OK. So I took the fuel pump mounting plate out. All lines clear. Non of the possible issues identified by DFS in his recent reply. Lines from tank overflow clear. Replaced fuel filter. Is now a hell of a lot quieter. Still audible though. Not sure if this much noise from the fuel pump is standard. I...

Re: GS 1100 throttle body repair and other rattles

I've spoken to Vince at Bassendean. What a helpful bloke! Based on the quick test he told me about (press on throttle cable pulley and if knocking stops it is the usual rattling throttle body problem) it does seem to be the throttle body rattling. I described how loud it is to Vince and he seems to ...

Re: GS 1100 throttle body repair and other rattles

Hi Thumper. Thanks for your response. The sound is a lot more than just a ticking it is a reasonably loud rattle. The reason I think it is coming from the throttle body is that I can hear and feel the knocking in the throttle body. I 'm pretty sure it is not coming from the motor. I have read widely...
