Re: East Midlands meet up?

Do you work weekends Jim? I don't know the pubs near NLM but it sounds like an idea to meet there then ride to a local to discuss further meets. Is the Vic recommended? Does anyone have a specific date in mind so we can try and get it posted in ATG, probably have to meet in February to get it posted...

Re: East Midlands meet up?

Hi all. If we created an East Midlands section there's no reason we couldn't involve modern and old morinis. You could do seperate ride outs to meet at the same place if the difference in speed etc bothered people, though if your sticking to more scenic roads I find my strada can keep up with most m...

I live in Derby but am more than happy to travel further out. If anyone's interested let me know and we can ...

Re: Strada back on the road again

Thanks. Now I've got the hang of the kick start procedure again I could use it as a commuter, don't think the neighbours would appreciate it at 5:30 am though. Sounds great though

Strada back on the road again

Hi all, Thought I'd post some pics/info on my 1974 strada, that passed it's MOT today (though I "lost" my rear reflector on the way). I got the bike when I was 17 as it qualified as under 33bhp. It had been stood for 8 years and the bearings promptly collapsed meaning I had to rebuild the ...

I've seen from previous posts that ev_guru has made his own, can he or anyone else provide some details for correct cable lengths or is it just try till it fits? Che...
