197 ?

[Steve]

When are these deemed to be ran in?

What mileage safe for tracking?

Do you get a jack & wheel brace with these?

 

[DNP182]

I would imagine that after you have put about 500 / 1000 miles on the clock, it is 'run in'....but to be fair, the engine probably will not be lossened up until several thousand miles on the clock.

there was no wheel brace or jack with my r27...but I asked the dealer to get me one...which they did.

Once the oil is up to temp its run in

 

[jimbo666]

Mine was worn in once it left the forecourt

You finally bought one Steve?!

 

[Russy B]

no spare wheel with 197, dunno about jack though, you just get that spray stuff instead!!!

 

[ForceIndia]

No jack?

 

[Russy B]

not sure, i think they might be

anyone tried the puncture repair spray stuff

 

[Lee]

No jack in the Cup or with Cup packs due to the reduced ride hight.

What happens with a flat? Mine's lower, but the 172 jack still fits?

Basically you're fucked. I had one last year at the World Series.

I borrowed a jack off a friend with an R26, and spare off a mate with a 197 who carried one with him.

You need a jack to even use the foam, not that it works anyway.

Does the R26 have a jack/spare?

 

[theduck]

R26 has a jack, dont thnk it has a spare though, because as with 182 and 197 there is no room for one.

 

[Lee]

Does the R26 have a jack/spare?

It has the jack for sure, and my mate had a space saver, but I don't know if that's standard.

 

[ForceIndia]

Ok, danke

 

[Jay]

I think you could spec a spare as an option with the R26.

 

[Gaz_]

Mine has a jack, but mine is a standard 197.

Mine goees like a rocket at 30k, revs hard, good lump imo!

Where is it btw lol ill need to see if the one im looking at still has it lol !

 

[mradam87]

Hmm didn't realise they never had a spare, is there no room at all?

And is the foam stuff useless or will it get you home?

Under boot carpet, alway check to see the boot floors stright when buying a car

Nope. All 197's have a flat boot floor as the rear exhaust box is under it. Same as the 182....... The foam will get you home, as long as the puncture not sliced the side wall.... some people keep a spare in the boot lol!! I did when i went to the lakes in the summer, you never know

I suppose thats an idea when venturing a bit further from home

I'm usually within 10 - 15 miles though so should be good with that!

take a mate to 'push'
