Great little run out to DRD's in North Walsham.

Just back home with a fresh 12 months ticket on the Kat :D :D

The Speed Trip came out of hibernation with an ECU error light on.

Went ok, so couldn't have been much🤔

So today plugged in TuneECU.
Turned out to a low voltage on the cooling temp sensor.

Now looking good!

Will need to get a new one...

There you go , the reason I only have 80's Kats in the garage... Sensors that just just apply for no reason ....1 of the work V stroms I've had developed an FI warning ever so often 2 days after ownership began brand new ..they never found the issue even though it said front cylinder ...125000 miles later still there never missed a beat it just lied ..

:D :D
The Speed Trip is my modern bike, 28years old, and mostly "on the button and go"!


The Kat is the one I enjoy riding the most though, despite being a bit more involved ownership.

FustyWeeds is on my to visit list (for Norfolk, thanks to you!) which hopefully I will do soon. I did do Slutshole Lane a while back (near Attleborough) and this last weekend I did the (so Google says) the UK's shortest dual carriageway on the Tunstead / Scottow road. Should get the Kat down that sometime.

Sorry not on Kat, I was camping at Clippesby on the FR80.

Ah, yes. The Tunstead to Scottow motorway!

I have in, in the dim and distant past, been over taken along there. Mind you I was at the time driving a Massey Ferguson 2690 towing a water tanker! :lol: :lol:

If you head towards Wroxham from there you get to cross the level crossing at Tunstead at which my brother managed to get a Bedford HA van airborne. I was in the passenger seat so knew what was coming, the 4 people in the back didn’t………
