Re: 500 Strada starting
http://www.brommer-forum.nl/faq/200/1.jpg "P" has to do with the insulatortype, projected or not. but it doesn't ring a bell what the actual difference might be, I always use the BP-series when buying NGK but they costs next to nothing so changing won't break the bank. Do not buy from inte...

Re: new toy
Last friday used the MM500 as the daily transport to work, 205 km single trip. The first stretch to the A28 a little bit hesistant but then the fun started. refueled after 180km, a welcome break as the bike is a bit small. The acoustic properties of both the Benelux and the Botlektunnel are very goo...
Re: new toy
as for plugs:
- I do not buy these anymore on Ebay, to much fakes around and to many failed plugs after a short period of running
- I only buy from a local shop with auditable sourcing from NGK

Re: new toy
this weekend off to the local classic races in Gramsbergen. The MM500 is running well and fun to ride. as mentioned before; on secundary roads the bike will hold itself well against the modern ones. although you need all the revs and gears. https://swf-ignitionsystems.nl/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/V...

Re: post office rant
I used to send my shipments with T&T only untill a number were lost, and no action from our postal services, case closed.
then I insured the packages for an extra 2€, lo and behold they all arrive and when not they are always returned or delivered. no more losses

usually starts with 1~2 kick
if left for a couple of weeks then 2~3 kicks
the electric start is not fitted.

Re: Fuel tap overhaul
On my MM500 the electric fuel tap also broke down and I had to resort to using the reserve fueltap while keeping an eye on the daytrip counter. Not the best way to manage your fuelreserve. Replaced the electric tap with a normal one but due to the fitted tophalf using it was difficult and removing t...

Re: left hand gearchange conversions
the rear brake doesn't do much in an emergency situation, better concentrate on using the front to the max .
recently at the 30K service-interval of my V85TT I was asked if I had ever used the rear brake, "no, only downhill on the hardknott pass"

Re: Do I have an ignition problem
I forgot to update this. The SWF ignition supplied by Anne (username lemans ) has been fitted and is running fine. Easy to fit but setting the timing needs 2 pairs of hands and eyes. The SWF system bypasses the crappy coil on the stator it takes power from the electric fuel tap power wire. Everythi...
