Same mileage as my pug nearly lol

63k its just wear and tear, a bit of TLC will go a long way. Supposed to be going a weeks road trip taking in Skye and Applecross in June so have a few weeks to get things tip top!

Past that on Balmore Rd last week and gave him a wee toot, forgot all about it. Best post a spotted thread!

Rack ends then, I shall investigate them and replace them first with the rod end too and get some camber bolts and an alignment at the same time. Prob worth replacing steering rack gaitors at the same time. Coolio, Cat B Ali

Anyone ever get to the bottom of these issues? Mine has a bit of a knock and feels vague, a little bit too much play in the steering and feels like its sliding a bit in faster bends. The shocks and top mount bearings are new, the o/s driveshaft is newish - was thinking track rod ends and track...

Cheers Martin, John at Progrip told me 6 months ago there was play in the track rods lol so that might be all it is. Need to get camber bolts fitted and tracking done again so perfect opportunity to do it I guess. I'll get it on a ramp locally this week to see if there's any more needing done.

For a while now my 172 has had a bit of play somewhere which was noticeable through the steering wheel when low speed maneouvring e.g. pulling out of a parking space. I had replaced the o/s driveshaft in the hope it'd fix it but it didn't. Since then its had new shocks and springs so they're...

Evaporative emissions canisters are used to collect unburnt fuel and its drawn into the inlet under vacuum to be burnt. The purge valves are there to draw the fuel through i.e. open the vacuum when triggered. IF they're the same as on motorcycles in California that is. I did a bit of work on...

Parked up past the hairpin on the rallycross track? very clean!

The day I got mine I knocked it over like a tard and it came up with red lights. Error code on screen suggested it was a drive fault and it's never caused any problems in about 6 months

Think so, maybe 54

At the British GT racing today spotted: 53 plate cup Inferno 182 on lowering springs Racing Blue 182 Nimbus 197 Liquid Yellow R27 2 x 200's Meg F1 Team Also spotted a phase 1 172 on the m80

I'm sure it sounds good in the car but when you passed me en route to Tesco it sounded like a wet fart lol I was told the same when I had a blueflame on my 182

laptopsdirect.co.uk do decent finance, buy now pay later etc bought one there 6 years ago

That sounds like the one I saw at Knockhill, had 182 gordini stripes in dark grey too IIRC

I saw a silver 182 with purple wheels at knockhill last year.

Its worth slowing down to avoid getting dazzled, need to be doing over 40ish for it to flash when going towards them anyway. What exhaust you got?

That was me, R90 RYS Saw you flash, gave you a subtle nod lol. Was that you I saw last night too coming off Alexandra Parade heading up to Baird St? Must have been the Ferrari you heard as the 172 is standard bar the suspension, either that or its blowing lol The camera on Duke St is for...

Indeed, fair play of its both belts. Make sure they do the tensioners too

@ 36k its not a cambelt unless its over 5 years old. So £500 for an aux belt and service is a bit steep imo.

Ordered a Vivaz as a free replacement, uses Symbian software like some Nokias so hopefully the SE glitches have gone. Upgrade in September so just needs to last me 5 months anyway.

Getting an Iphone next month anyway so gonna have phones coming out my ears lol ebay anyone?!

indeed. worth no more than 2k though when you can buy a straight 172 for £2500-£3000

Update: complaints dept have offered me any free handset (non smart phone so not iphone, blackberry, HTC or x10 from my reckoning) brand new as a good will gesture. And come Sep/Oct I get to upgrade again. Need to go look at some phones tonight and let them know. They've just retained a...

I like that a lot, same engine as Ally's Z4 they have a great sound

Same reason I was late lol Milngavie

Yeah I turned my head and watched you go by blissfully unaware lol

40 year old bikes will have imperial wheels so you'll need 28" tyres prob not the modern 700c's

Silver ph2 172 heading the opposite direction, stationary in traffic as you passed - running very late!
