A Tuning Day will be held on Saturday 11 August commencing 1200hrs at my place in Belmont. The Club is now in possession of the new 911 tool for the Liquid Cooled R1200 models. Please contact me for the address. My details are in the Members Private section.

Nice one. Noel. I must make an effort to attend that one. I'm going to try to attend on my K100RT so that someone can try a quick diagnostics check on it. We were given an old K series diagnostics kit by Vince, of Bassendean Motorcycles. I don't think I'm clever enough to drive it, but I suspect our brains trust, in Noel, Neville, Jono and Alex will be able to work it out and maybe give me another HP in the old girl

Ensure you bring the instructions for the antiquated diagnostics tool.

Another great afternoon, several bikes tweaked and much fellowship, thanks for hosting Noel.

Thanks Noel,

Another great farkling day in the sunshine.

TPMS sensors swapped; Service reminder reset; Tyre pressure status changed from kPa to psi; clock changed from 12 format to 24 hr format; AutoScans performed; error codes cleared

Yes, echo those sentiments. a great day, hosted by Noel. It was also great to wheel my 1988 K100Rt into the shed and play a bit with the old K100 diagnostics kit. Thanks to Alex and Cookie for getting it out for us to play. We still need to delve a bit deeper into how to check dwell angles etc. While Graham Marshall and I were fiddling about with the kit, Noel noticed that my clutch cable had twisted inside its sheath and therefore was not true inside its locating slot on the clutch lever. This happened as a result of me changing my rear main seal on the bike over a two week period, every evening after work. Thankfully the motor is still oiltight, so I am quite proud. I used a new Teflon rear main seal from Munich motorcycles. Other Club luminaries present were Teri Anne, BJ, Steve, Bob, Jono and a host of others including Adelaide based Bill Burke on a fleeting visit.

Nev was poring over the laptop and looking way too professional in the other corner, with the modern bikes..................

It was a good day, and thankfully a fine day without rain - thanks to all who attended, and good to see we have a combined knowledge base to get a variety of issues resolved. I will host another day in September, date to be advised.

Fantastic day, more than I could hope for from membership.
Resolved those little issues I had because of change of tire type.

Thanks
Steve
