Hi Guys Mr. Badger is still waiting for replacement parts for his speedo, so now I am trying another approach. Anybody know where I can get: * A broken, or working, speedo * A rev counter, or actually just the black ring that fastens the glass onto the front of the rev counter? kind regards Charles Oertel

Hi Mike Yes, I am very interested. Mine is missing a gear and perhaps I can salvage something. Whereabouts are you? Website Administrator [http://honeybadger.net Honey Badger IT Services]

My family is going away on holiday on Saturday and I am alone all week next week - let's make it after your return because I probably want to scrounge some other things from your bike while I am there. Website Administrator [http://honeybadger.net Honey Badger IT Services]

I was traveling up the Blue Route (M3 ?)in the van en-route to CT, earlier this morning when I spied a bike coming up behind me, I moved aside and received a thank-you flikker of the indicators, then I saw the un-branded rider gear and the anti-pink tappet covers and knew it was Mr B and Charles....thinking to catch up and give a friendly wave I dropped a gear and accelerated WELL no wave given...Charles since your speedo is broken your speed was +.... no I had best PM you!:-)

Oh, it was you! I noticed the sudden move over as I came up the road centre-line - hence the thanks. I did think at the time that it was a bit extreme to move over so far... ;-) Then I got to thinking about the times I have thought a car was moving over so that I could take the gap, only to discover the gap closing a moment later because the driver was actually just weaving while SMSing or yakking. Sorry if I didn't be more friendly - you know how grumpy badgers can get when they haven't had their cider! Website Administrator [http://honeybadger.net Honey Badger IT Services]
