That's it! ...they look great up there! *thumbs up*

Washed it

Replaced all front bulbs, 100w headlamps, 60w sidelights and 80w foglights, with LED`s with wee fans on the back and ballasts - beautiful, bright pure white light to go with the light bar £50 a side from China - REALLY simple to do - pre 10 plates are different as theres fiddly metal clips to pi55 around with, but on mine - simple bayonet fit.

Is this not all a bit dodgy for the MoT test Basil? are super bright lights allowed?

Mr MOT has no way of knowing the wattage of the bulbs. That said I don't think the led one maintain the beam pattern, but j could be wrong there.

The bulbs can make a difference to beam pattern. For example, an H4 tungsten bulb in place of an H4 halogen one and you'll fail on incorrect beam pattern... as I discovered many moons ago with my Panda 4x4 Sisley. The optics can't compensate for incorrect size, shape or position of the light source. I just don't know how well the led jobs are designed in this respect.

just been out and fired em all up - jeezo, much better beam definition on dip, and the fogs are mental. so i bow to you lemmy (as i would to your namesake )

They may well be fine mate, I've just no.experience first hand.. you'll have to report how well then work and last, act as out guinea pig before we all buy them.

It wont be the first time.....

rubbed down both side panels on the tub ready for repair and paint.... 79 dints to repair ! (just on the top half) is this a record ?

My tub was one big dent,but I don't think it was a record...

Nae enough wartz

Finished tidying up the installation of my coolant heat exchanger for veggy running. Works a treat, looks smart in the engine bay, start getting warm in 30 seconds.

Mines red hot within a mile every trip

Which one have you got Birdie? I got the compact one from here...

http://www.biotuning.co.uk/ShopHeatExchangers.htm

I just need to find something to wrap round it as insulation. Don't want to wast a particle of that lovely heat.

It's a plate exchanger, came with an atg kit. It's stamped up as a ktm item

Have just looked at the site and any advice from anyone who has fitted kit 1 would be appreciated. Thanks

Mine is very similar to the compact one

replaced map sensor and also changed the fuel filter which should have been a sub 5 min job but involved a trip to my mates garage to borrow a big set of grips as it appeared that geoff capes had tightened it up

I found that my one was too tight the first time I changed it too had to put it in a vice

Replaced the oil pressure switch

Adjusted back shoes, put warrior prop shaft on the Trojan, got compression test done which leads to the best news, head gasket isn't gone or failed, compression test was good, rad cap needs replaced and coolant flushed and changed.
