Yes he’s fine we r chatted a few times recently..as I said his KH500 blew up and amongst other things he’s been busy trying to get it fixed..it’s a bit of a mess..
We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…

Really sorry to hear about his Kawasaki woes as I think parts can be quite tricky to find for the triples.
But I'm glad he is OK. Pass on my regards too if you remember!

He seems fine. Beer, skittles, bike rides and puppies, in addition to mechanics. It's a busy life this retirement lark from the sound of it. Bring it on!!

Blimey must have been a biggie if it downed his internet connection aswell.
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

Oh yeah, so you have! Is that what is commonly known as "throwing a rod"?
Presume the piston stuck in the bore?
