Ahh man, I'm busy nearly all next week after Monday, Not to worry dude.

I'm free Monday Luke if you did fancy a meet up at Cannock, let me know how you go and we'll get something together.

Get as much oil as you can into the oil and lines to avoid starvation, it's only a small amount but it's worthwhile.

I'll check the calendar tomorrow at work, but would Monday be ok?

Have you picked a day for Cannock dude? If so I'd be game to join if that's ok ? And providing I can get the day off work..

Sounds good, I'll email them. But as of yesterday the posts working fine?! Not a problem to be found...

I'd be game for any midlands/West Midlands stuff as I'm sure a few others would Luke, Cannocks a good ride, and I've only heard good things of BPW. If you find yourself around north wales at all checkout Penmachno. It's a volunteer ran trail that's incredible. It's only 21 miles but it's definatley an all dater, the views alone are incredible so it's worth taking some packed lunch to sit and enjoy it, but it is a fair way out the way..

Yeah seal problems seem fairly common, but I can't find anything about them blowing the top seal to determine what seals I'm dealing with. It's not surprising the seals go when you consider they carry your full weight over most climbs etc, I'll see what SRAM say..

I've had about 20 bbqs this year at least, f**king love them. Meat and fire, perfection!

Just dry wipe to be honest then lube with the reverb oil that came with it. I took the post out the frame earlier and the whole inner is covered in oil so it's blown a seal somewhere, plus it'd dropped pressure to 160psi. I'll call SRAM in the morning and see what comes of it, it's only 6 month old but I've found SRAMs service plan for the posts and it's loooong overdue a rebuild.

I've just found a bbq forum and I couldn't be happier.

Just giving the bike a service/clean after a particularly wet ride Friday and my reverb seems to be acting abit weird. It raises/lowers fine and as smooth as ever but every time it goes full drop it makes a loud pop and blows the dust seal off the top of the fixed section of the post. I've looked inside and the foam pad inside is saturated but smells/feels a lot like the reverb oil I was supplied with the post. The top collar that hold the internals in was also fairly loose? Has anybody experienced this before? My first thought was the moisture in that foam is just rain water and it's just blowing it's top through raised pressure, but after thinking it might be mineral oil I'm wondering if it's blown a seal internally, but surely it wouldn't still rise/fall like normal if it had? I just wondered if this is a simple fix before I warranty it.

I'm game, next Saturday could be good too for me.

Sucks, the guy must be devastated after owning that for so long, but it's the risk of rally I suppose. I hope a suitable outcome is found for the guy.

That sucks Robin, I've loved following your rally adventure. Pleased everyone got out of that thou, they're very lucky people. How come the impreza was there anyway?

I used to worship Akriggs t-raptor, so awesome.

I can't see why not, but you'd be set within the constraints of that ecu. Whereas a standalone type gives you full flexability.

Haha, just reread my post. I'll reiterate.. Just cycled the 6 miles between my house and my folks in 17 minutes! Chuffed with that!

I can't see the 3.0 fitting, the 2.6 maybe but gazzas are heavy things, is there no maxis/continue equivalent more suitable?

Any reason you need a 3.0 tyre? They weigh an absolute mega tonne.

Is there any known causes yet? Without wanting to pry ofcourse..

Are we getting rid of shorts or are they running along side skirts?

Just managed the 6 mile run between my house and my folks in 17 minutes, mega chuffed with that!

I'd say that sounds pretty fair. Turbos are fragile things so I'd do everything to avoid working on it myself.

We use fax at work, I can email, scan, copy etc but the fax machine boggles me.
