    4 celcius today, which IS a wee bit nippy... Rode to a wrench day/meet, good that I arrived when the burgers were ready :-) The clutch rod oil leak fix seems to be holding and I do like the RT emulators initial feel. Roads too cold for any serious pushing, but less dive yet planted feel for now. This year I will be experimenting with them. Didnot drill extra holes, will wait if and when a spare set of front forks are at hand.

    Once the weather improves, actual riding will tell how good this fix is. Have to wait till 1st March anyway. If not, Dutchy meet The Dutchy part trois :-)

    I also hope it is a case of "me love you long time".......

    So far, so good. The engine ran for about ten minutes, pulled the clutch a few times. And no leakage. Compare this with the earlier picture.

    Fingers crossed....

    If you know another trick Bert, please do tell. The Dutchy gave me a tip to pull the rod and put shrink tubing (the stuff you heat up) over the rod area where the seal would be. Tried that, but it kept leaking. So I put another bit of tubing on top and reassembled once more. But then the rain started. So I will try tomorrow if there is dry spell. Made myself a nice gin and tonic and call it a day.

    Well, the voltmeter kept on fogging up, so I caved in and got a new VDO one... A VDO one, just like the clock..

    Did you succeed in quieting down that Sebring?

    Cheers The Dutchy for offering light at the end of the tunnel With the bike under "overgangsregeling oldtimers" I won't be riding her until March anyway. Weekend forecast for rains and more rains so the "pull the exhaust and give the engine a good clean/inspection" will have to wait.

    The glistering wetness all over is condensation inside the garden shed, only redslut is parked in a heated garage.... If there is a break in the weather AND my work schedule, I will take puma out, remove the mufflers, front headers and collector box to give her a good clean underneath and hopefully trace "the source". There was but still is a lot of grime underneath. Having put a new rear shock in a sourced RT front fork emulators and springs, I'm not ready yet to consider letting her go.... In the few months I had her, put ~ 4,500km's on her, I like her a lot...

    Not sure yet, the underside is/was very dirty with old grime so I need to get my sherlock cap on. Other -family- stuff to take care of 1st... The shed is a plain single stone one and with temperatures >freezing anything metal wet with condensation. It could be fuel as the actual petcock was dirty/wet, as was the area below. Shoved a bunch of white paper towel under the petcock and will check tomorrow.

    Fark...... After having her warm up, put puma back in the shed, but.. Underside of collectorbox: WTF?

    Cheers Rush! I stil need to figure out to affix the wires to the rear of the case and then down towards the tail section. I won't be taking the case of each time I stop so am thinking of a semi-permanent method. Givi sell -for their own line of cases- a LED system that contains a flug one fits to the bottom of the case and the base plate so it "clicks" into place.

    The decals for both my girls came in today :-) July 1986 the year my VF500F was built also the month/year I started with a certain company I am with still today (after 2 mergers and a split...). Undecided on which color scheme would look best I simply made "3 generations".... The nothing else matters will look good under the sidepanel VFR logo (methink) with the sane insanity apt for the VF...
