Soviet Steeds

Right so that is now sounding like ignition cutting out, intermittently

@ Mr Wazzock: That is why i get puzzled: Ranger is the name of the 2wd Gear-up in Europe. So according to my understanding someone sells cat for rabbit in Aussie-land. I know, but I am assured by my dealer that is also what it is called in left drive countries, where impossible to have 2WD. I think...

Congrats ..

But Jeez yeah that fairing is fugly, I'd have a ritual burning of it in the back yard pronto ..

Oil pressure is extremely low on Urals, it's why there's no oil pressure switch and warning light for the dash, there's not even enough pressure to turn off a hydraulic oil pressure switch. Your gauge would show next to nothing, just a few psi.

Behaviour says to me straightaway "running on one cylinder", so any of the above suggestions, causing one side to not work

IMO, automotive dampers have too much dampening for most conditions, but its subjective.

FWIW, my OEM damper was replaced very early on, the replacement is still going 3 years later; I like that they're adjustable, not that I'm readjusting it at all often, but on that basis I want to agree.

Reason why the rigs have a steering damper is because otherwise you do get head shake at slow speeds around 20 mph, this is normal behaviour (for a sidecar outfit) and not a fault.

One nasty surprise I got from the Enduro is how it collects and holds rain water. First time I took mine off propped it nose up against a wall and a veritable little stream erupted out of the rear end. :o I drilled holes in the bottom of the plastic base as drains, in 3 different places I think, whi...

Sure it's water and not blinker fluid?

They sell Ranger in down under....?
How the heck you get two wheel drive to the left?

You don't, Ranger is 1WD only version of Patrol / Gear Up

2016 so would be septic sorry optic.

Have to confess it wasn't obvious to me either, until I saw it written down! Then I was like

@DKK what bike exactly?

This is another significant reason why I like my solo seat (on my CT) just take the 'A' plate off that it sits on (4 Allen screws), a quick & easy 2 minutes job, and then the top of the batt and everything else is all open to the sky for access to everything.

PS: I got the LED's from ClassicCarLeds.co.uk , not cheap but they are good, positive and negative earth and even bi-directional for AC lighting, also got a set for my Bantam as well cos they do 6V and 12V. Different colours, bright and 'warm' white, amber, red ... for the turn signal I got a 'kit' ...

It's the reason why I did! :D I think you'll find you're going to have to inspect all the lamps periodically looking for bad contact problems. This has been impressed upon me. It's because of the rather nasty quality of the Russian lamps (sorry) :( Good to know, I wasn't expecting that. Usually I c...
