  • major fright

    i had a major fright today going to aberdeen,sitting at 100 mph along past stirling castle and looked in mirror to see major smoke thought i blew a piston, but had wrong oil filler cap fitted and it was leaking on to exhaust my co pilot lifted the bonnet for me but must have hit the cut off switch at the same time shit myself ,stuck in the middle of no where at five in the morning ,found problem and we were off again ,great day out though and spectacular sideways stuff from martin at dundee roundabout in the mex.will need major steam clean for cumbria

    Glad your motors all right, good day?, finally got mine on the road and took it for a spin tonight as it was dry, turned more than a few heads, will hopefully get to see you soon and you can give her the once over, cheers.

        gaz under two hours from aberdeen to glasgow is not bad going,no time for sideways action.we ended up limping home was crosseyed keeping an eye on oil pressure and temp gauges,f$ck i cant handle these old school motors,bloody nerve racking.hopefully no damage to engine mate any way the oil keeps it rust free
