Speedometer Problem ...

[Bryan]

Hi Everyone, Finally back at the office, sure pray that you guys have a great 2010. Those temps you are talking about are way too cold for me to even imagine, I been seeing some really heavy winter weather up in the northern hemisphere regions on the tv. Here, this morning, it's 07h30 and the temp is 23C or 73.5F, slight sea breeze and not a cloud to be seen. Just want to keep on riding, damn wish I had a rich daddy. Regards from Durban RSA.

If I had a rich daddy I'd be somewhere warm enough to ride...  It was 16 F ( -9 C) this morning and we are expecting 5 inches of snow tonight and then it's gonna get cold...  To cold for me too...

Enjoy the fine weather for me and go for another ride.

The problem is that in the places where it is almost always warm and good for a ride, there is a major lack of "rich daddies".
The colder, the more rich daddies.
Dammit!

Back to "Speedo problems"
I did mension elsewere that my speedo was far out! at 120km it showed 138kmh
I have sorted it out and its 100% now!
The sensor at the wheel was to close to the "grid" it should be one mil. away....mine actualy touched at one ore two places. it has a allen key adjustment but i found it easier to make a thicker spacer and fitted that!

[Bryan]

Thanks Andre, that info will certainly come in handy. I will be examining mine as soon as I get some free time to fiddle which should be after the end of this month because I have received a retrenchment letter and myself and a number of others will be out as from the 28th. Take care.

Hey Bryan! sign of the times! i find things also sticky! waiting for a policy to pay out! should have been paid out by 25th....stil nothing! hope u find new job soon!

Thanks Andre, For you kind thought however the math is (RSA + Age 58 + Pale Male = ). I don't think it's even worthwhile doing the CV thing, I'll have to try and do some private jobs from the house. At least I won't have the repo man come knocking at my door. Take care.

Bryan, welcome to the club.  I was same age when they shut down my office.  It's been 4 years and that same formula pretty much is true here.  I work for myself now.  Not getting rich, but still here and scootin.  Real glad my wife is working as well.
