Future riding plans/bike ?????

No plans at the moment.
Need a resolution which may be some time away.
Left shoulder is currently good although a bone shaving could be on the cards down the track.
The specialist thinks the right one is heading down the track of going frozen.
Then there is the nerves in both elbows starting to roll out of the joints.

So sorry to hear that health issues have put your riding on the back burner. I hope you can get back in the saddle again in the not too distant future.

STimpy I'll swap my vulva for it,, oops that's Volvo...

sorry to hear about your dicky knee,, oh shoulder

Don't mention Knees Johnny

When i was doing my physical to use the work gym last week for physical strengthening...well you just have to laugh don't you.

Thanks Pete.I guess it's a lesson in getting older and falling apart.
Hopefully we can get back to touring sooner rather than later.

Sorry to hear this news STimpy, but we may still ride to or from a Nat Rally in the future, even if both of us are on a mobility scooters.

Good luck with the sale.

Sorry to hear that Duncan but I may not be far behind you. Extremely painful neck and right shoulder have prevented me from doing much riding since Perth last year. Still undergoing treatment . . Probably caused by whiplash in a car incident in 1965, a passenger in a Triumph Herald hit from behind at high speed.

Might be driving to RTE's in the future . . . 😥

That's doesn't sound good Terry ! The folly of youth returning to haunt.
I went to a proper Physiotherapist yesterday only to be told i had a lot of tension in my neck shoulders and back which i hadn't realised.
Had acupuncture,a physio session then got trussed up like a turkey with race tape.
Not pretty

So tempting, but not allowed.

The MC cruise that lost its mojo after a tyre change is a common problem. The tyre changer has increased the gap bretween the pick-up and the hub magnets. squeeze the arm towards the wheel to get a 2mm gap and you'll have a functioning MC again. Then you can forget about selling it!

It's a fantastic set-up. I envy any buyer, especially at the price. I'm leery of high kays, but not in this case.

Biggles · « **Reply #17 on:** July 08, 2017, 08:32:26 PM »

Oh- and are the advert pictures for a touring company or a bike sale??

Cerebral Knievel · « **Reply #18 on:** July 08, 2017, 09:36:52 PM »

I had Brian ( Farkleit) service the cruise in May. I expect it will be a simple fix as you suggested Biggles but I have not gotten around getting on the ground to give it a look over yet.

A great bike Maketh for great touring pictures as we all know

The MC cruise is now going gang busters.
As Biggles suggested it was just a matter of tickling the sensor back within magnet reading tolerance

This post just appeared in my news feed for the first time - Thats the second post this week that popped up with heaps of replies but its the first time I had seen them

Bugga Stimpy - Sounds like you and Stroppy should have used the other arm a few times to reduce the wear and tear

That bike should be a nice pickup for someone :-)

Cerebral Knievel · « **Reply #24 on:** July 13, 2017, 07:05:02 PM »

Ian(Beatup)seems to think it was from the recent regular visits to the craft brewery not far from home as the crow flies.That would be a much more enjoyable way to have obtained the injuries but alas it's just repetitive heavy lifting
(again not from the

)
