After a few rides on my new RD I just finished restoring. . I investigated why the bloody thing was vibrating so much. Could hardly see anything in mirrors. I forgot to tighten up the engine mounting bolts. What a difference. Unfortunately I do stupid shit like that.

....im still wondering how a course car can hit a rider ? Sounds terrible, the course car was heading one way to an incident, while the riders who had been stopped, were being sent back to Douglas... in the direction the course car was coming ! Im just reading various online posts about it, but lots of questions to be answered. RIP Dan Kneen. Steven.

Second rider was told to return to the pits riding the wrong direction with a group of riders, which is quite normal under full red flag conditions under race control, as they take the shortest route back to the pits depending on were they are stopped when Red flag is deployed. However the course car was traveling in the race direction & hit the rider returning to the pits. Questions will be asked tomorrow.
Not a good time here as one of our 3 riders is very close friend to Dan Kneen. RIP Dan.
I Think this now needs to go back to the original thread on LCs
Best regards Johnny C.

They are all kept & prepared by IDP Moto. This bike is my personal bike which was built for me by “Kevin Schofield” to add to my collection. It’s fabulous, I have only just got it registered last week. As I am working here during the day have lent it to a mate to use for a few days whilst he’s over here as he hasn’t got a bike anymore after his divorce. Best regards Johnny C.

OK that's my dream bike right there. Had an RS but with a 500 lump in it? Ferking heck!
All I did was measure up some USD forks and a swinger to see if they fit. Yes, they do.
