johnnyfive Posted November 5, 2020 Author Posted November 5, 2020 I've got a couple loaner CTs, and an XL185. Minor problems, able to be sorted out. I am kinda short on time though. 1 Quote
tortron Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 you gotta take some cowshit with you so you can plug the leaks as the dry stuff vibrates off 2 1 Quote
RUNAMUCK Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 I learned last year you can plug leaky fuel tanks with soap. 1 Quote
tortron Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 who takes soap on this ride? i dont even take a change of underwear 1 Quote

No WOFs on all 3 (just an FYI) 2 CTs have sticking rear brakes, 1 CT needs indicator stalk broken (have replacement), x2 CTs probably could do with new batteries although not required. XL185 has had a china 27mm replacement carb and I suspect the jetting/quality is a bit dicky. (someone sell me a quality replacement carb for XL185, Thanks.) Quote
HighLUX Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 CTs sound like they could be easy to resurrect on Thursday evening 2 Quote
johnnyfive Posted November 5, 2020 Author Posted November 5, 2020 Yeah I've been using one on the farm as is, just staying away from the rear brake. I aim to have at least one or two spares to put on the recovery wagon. 1 Quote
GuyWithAviators Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Wasn’t the rear brake dicky on it last year too? Lol. Good steeds those back up CTs though. Happy to help with any repairs needed also. Quote

johnnyfive Posted November 6, 2020 Author Posted November 6, 2020 Where were Sutherland and sons staying each night? The reason I ask, is it may make sense to consolidate our room with another after a couple from ours can't make it also. 1 Quote
