Hi Alan

I jack the rotor arm up, and the bus nearly fired. Not sure if it is the wrong cap or there is too much end float in the top part of the dizzy shaft. all good fun, what else would you do with your spare time but try to eliminate ignition faults. Cheers Dave

Actually, it's probably the spring on the graphite plug. Not enough shove to get it onto the rotor properly, and the plug itself is probably too short through wear.

As for offtime, went up Thompsons Track yesterday. Very dry and, unfortuately, no mud. Good day out though. Came back with a few extra scratches.

This is during a short play time in a mud spot we found. Mine is front right and the 109 behind belongs to the guy beside it. It is more or less the same age and is from the same camp. That is how mine used to look.

Then there's Beatrice (http://www.alphabyte.co.nz/beatrice)

And there is the kontiki I made this summer, plus various other projects,...

Work (2 jobs), research (doing study), ...
