Is there any chance it could be on Saturday 29th as I can make it there and back in a day, on Sundays the ferries are ten and four making it necessary to stay over two nights to be there...if that's convenient with the others of course

I'm OK with that. Will that be a problem for anyone else?
If anybody has made bookings and can't change them, we'll stick to 30th.

OK John. We'll do it again for sure, if people want it. 👍

Got the 500 Four ready for the 29th, the carbs are ok now thanks to the other members, I fitted the YSS piggyback shocks from my Kettle. Brook suspension provided two clevises to replace the bottom eyes not cheap at £79 but these are excellent shocks adjustable for compression and rebound damping independently...they seem to work well on the 500 first run out since buying it last year... YSS springs up front from Firefox Racing, front brake with new pads and fluid, Boyer ignition fitted and the light switch internals repaired with bits from the parts box.
First run tomorrow 🙂 [ Guests cannot view attachments ] 👍

The bike is looking great, I think it is looking forward to the ride too. 😁

I've booked good weather for the weekend. It'll be a good reason to get away from all this election nonsense.

So how many of us are going, folks? And is there a plan for meeting at the visitor centre?

Bike ran well on the run, Gareth but the fuel tap had been got at so in main it was on reserve, so I coughed and spluttered my way along till it ran bone dry 10 yards from the petrol station pump!
Fixed now with one from the spares box 🙂

Hi, I'm glad that you've sorted your bike out. Good timing for the meet.

I'm not sure how many are coming,  I guess 5 - 10 SOHC members. There may be a few classics from my local club, Scottish Classic Motorcycle Club as well. There are a few Honda fours and twins in the club.

The main car park at the Visitor Centre is at the rear of the building. Follow the access road round to the car park and I'll try and pick out a location for us all to park together.
