Event SHITEFEST 2017 Sales, swaps, freebies, logistics, & cetera.

[RobT]

Right, looks like there will be a naff plastic bicycle being delivered for me, but sadly I'll be in Wales that weekend. Can anyone in the south collect and store it for me for a while? RobT or Jackietwoshoes perhaps?

Happy to be plan B if the Itera doesn't fit in Gary's old heap.

[castros_bro]

Had a look through the spanners and they're mainly AF unfortunately and they're being held on to apparently. 

I do however have the following:

 

• 7/16 W = 1/2 BS - open/ring
• 1/2 W = 9/16 BS - open/ring
• 9/16 W = 5/8 BS x 1/2 W = 9/16 BS - double ring 
• same again but double open end
• 3/8 W = 7/16 BS x 7/16 W  = 1/2 BS double open end
• 3/8 W  = 7/16 BS x 5/16 W = 3/8 BS double open end
• 5/16 W = 3/8 BS open/ring
• 3/8 W = 7/16 BS one open end only and a bit fucked but usable, and the ring has sheared off the other end (!)
• 3/16W = 1/4 BS x 1/8 W double open end
• 3/16W = 1/4 BS open/ring

Whit sizes in bold, BS in italic. All available FOC but I'm not sure how to distribute them, can you agree between yourselves?

 

alles zusammengenommen

 

 

Yes to all and a quality photo of the first draft of the bike'

[KruJoe]

CB, do you have a moped for U_Womble, for me to take northwards?

[Ghosty]

If anyone needs anything moving from the north west that'll fit in an R8 then I'm happy to help out too.

[KruJoe]

[if Will could...]  be passing  27.6831928, 85.3200262 Kathmandu and spare 2 mins to eyeball if there's a smoll (my) Russian drill rig is still parked at the university engineering campus ? Will add photo tomorrow.

 

 

Photos please, I have asked him...

[Guest bangerfan101]

Any love for the armoured cable? If not it's going in the scrap Friday. Taking up too much room in my shed and leaving it outside will end up pikeyed

[KruJoe]

Why has Bangerfan gone yellow?

 

An odd request - does anyone have any bits for an early 80's MTX125?

Specifically, air pipe from filter to carb, little choke lever from the carb, ignition stitch.

No? Didn't think so.

 

 

It's my bro-in-law's bike, and resides in a Karen hill tribe village in northern Thailand.

[catsinthewelder]

If you have 30M of cable I'll happily buy it.

 

Anyone want to buy an old bike?

 

1940's BSA and Raleigh 3 speeds,  70's Batavus sprint racer and 80's Puch Toledo,  various conditions, cheap as I don't have enough space to keep them all undercover.

[ruffgeezer]

Also have this trolley populated with some old imperial and Whit spanners etc, it's a home made jobby and rather too large for my current garage. Anyone want to make an offer on it?

I'll get a better picture tomorrow, any bites at £35?

When I was working at the Engineering campus and this rig was given by the Russian Embassy to the college. Being polite they didn't say WTF do we want that for. I said may I have it and they couldn't agree quick enough. It stood outside for the wet season so looks much more manky then it really is.  6cy sidevalve truck with starting handle, tractor without running gear powerering the Kelly from its PTO, tractor starts from 1 cylinder donkey engine which starts with a rope pull. Took short time to get running using tiny 12 bike battery n starting handle. Everything mechanical worked. Then I had an accident and needed the NHS.

 

Located here and the nearest port Kolkata/Calcutta about 1000km

[chatsharris]

Annoyingly, due to work I'll be unable to make this one, as I have a few spares available.  Next year is a no go too so I'll aim for Shitefest 2019...

D'oh, Puch sounds interesting. I'm all out of cash though 'cause I'm already buying a bike at Shitefest (if it fits in a C4 Cactus, and the Rover, which it should).

[catsinthewelder]

It's quite small but saying that I commuted on it for a couple of years and I'm 6'4".  There is something wrong with the Sturmey Archer gears which means that you occasionally find yourself in neutral which is annoying.  You can have it for free so don't worry about skintness.

[Bucketeer]

Are you really 6'4" Rich? A lot of that is hair, right?

[Ghosty]

If you're 4-5" taller than me and you call it small, it might work for me  

 

Sounds like I could have a go at fixing that hub too, cheers!

[3VOM]

Anyone going who has Op-com or equivalent full Vauxhall/Opel diagnostics please? I need to narrow down an ABS issue.

[NorthernMonkey]

I'll bring my snap-on solus pro with me....that should do it if no one else has Op-com etc

[The Moog]

Two petrol metal jerry cans £10 for the pair

[bub2006]

If anyone needs anything shifting from shitefest I can bring the trailer? I'm only coming Saturday though.

[beko1987]

Is anyone coming from/past Bury Saint Edmonds by any chance?

[ruffgeezer]

Are you the chap breaking the V70 on the vox at the moment?

[NorthernMonkey]

I was breaking one a bit since on there but most of it's gone now. What were you after?

[The Moog]

Anyone coming who is close to Eden bridge in Kent??

[ruffgeezer]

I'll get a better picture tomorrow, any bites at £35?

Here is the homemade trolley on all its grubby glory;

 

 

And here is the top shelf pic for you mucky buggers...

 

 

[KruJoe]

I now have these items aboard:

 

 

Destination: South.

[Bucketeer]

^^^^ I would recommend Joe's ARSE to anyone. Never lets you down.

[KruJoe]

Thank you sir, don't mind if I do.

 

 

Also, field fettleage occurred.

If these are rust free inside, I would very much like to buy these fuel cans.

[The Moog]

Sorry Mr Cylinder they have already been claimed.
