the hog is alive and kicking again
Turbo Mini Forums

well after having to do a engine change on the side of the road whilst the nes pig sty is being built, she is alive and kicking again.

graced with some new 14cc +20 accrilites, i managed to dodge the showers and get her fitted.

took her for a test drive and everything seems well.

had a bit of a due as i pulled in to the petrol station to check tyre pressures the kwick shift screws decided to come undone and couldt get any gears let alone reverse, but managed to in the end but the only gear i could get was first or 4th so trundled the mile back home in 1st.

so jobs to do is try and get exhaust on a bit better underneath, sort out gear stick and try and get a bit more clutch, i fitted a new ralley plate but it bites at the bottom and is a bit judery.

always looking for them bigger bunches of bannanas

Good to hear

Back once again like a renegade master

Well done!!

every thing seems ok clutch seems to judder a bit with the new plate.

continentals arnt bad. they certainly take some abuse.


you have to be carefull with them in the with them in the wet.

unless i swing wide on tight round abouts in the wet the back end can come out if im a little bit entusiastic.
