Agreed , normal people would've looked at their legs and arms facing the wrong way and thought, right, that's enough of that then, not how soon can I race again doctor Saw him in the pits at Malory Park in 1977 , transatlantic races, on the track the bikes looked futuristic but close up they were a bag of bolts , his suzuki had a fairy liquid bottle near his right calf with a pipe going off somewhere Maybe that was if Kenny Roberts got too close on the final straight myglaren 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No - this was a Pug HDi and, on reflection, I think they must be referring to the aux belt pulley that bolts on over the top of the actual crank pulley (I'd thought they meant the main crank pulley but now realise that you can't actually see that on those unless you pull off the belt pulley and the cambelt cover 🤦♂️). he XM type pulley sounds like the 940's - they also have a built in rubber vibration damper that can deteriorate and cause'wobble'e symptoms on the belt pulley. An advisory on either would probably be OK - I was thinking main crank pulley in a senior moment. DSdriver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblers Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Best thing I've ever bought is this bike. This is my commute home from work:!!!! Had it not much more than a week and already done 240 miles! I'm happier, more fit and I'm exploring places that I'd never otherwise get to. I know it's flipping cheating having a motor on it, but perfection is the enemy of success. It's a compromise but it still means I'm getting shitloads more exercise than I otherwise would - I set off home from work last night at 5pm feeling a bit lethargic, couldn't really be arsed. As soon as I'd got half a mile down the road I'd perked right up and ended up doing 29 miles all over the place! And best of all I didn't pay any tax on the bastard because of HMRCs incredibly generous cycle to work thingy Honey Badger, cort1977, somewhatfoolish and 22 others 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goosey Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Bought a genuine new Merc temp sensor this morning spoke to a very helpful lady on the phone from the dealer, item in stock collected and fitted job done. Then took the battery back to ECP under warranty (4years) swapped for a new one with no fuss whatsoever.

Very common for blowing apart A sensible tester - the DVSA does recommend that testers advise any non-testable items that are worthwhile making the presenter aware of, especially in this case they've probably identified it as a common problem which is about to fail as they so often do.
