I don't think standard R500s are any good at bedford. I did it with my old R500 with a rear-exit exhaust and the reverie air-box. Graham

ignoring all these clever brains and their techy stuff (9.4v is low on cranking in my view), here is how I solved my clicky problem. I wired in a fly lead to the solenoid feed on the starter and ran it up to near the battery positive. Every time I got the click, I whizzed off the bonnet and used the fly lead on the pos terminal to start the car. It never failed to crank using the direct connect fly-lead. I then did the magic relay mod and never had nasty Mr Clicky again! Graham

Thanks Phil, but I got Kevin's in the end. Graham
-
Banner are good if you phone them up and ask for your local stockist..they seem to know! Graham
-
why not sikaflex, it's made for that job? It works if properly done and is removable as well with a stanley. Graham
-
On what tyres? Graham
-
I'd just bang another Banner in, they work very well. It seems too much hassle to bodge, I mean engineer another battery in unless you are on a serious weight saving kick. Graham
-
Hi Phil, what condition is the screen and surround? Graham
-
still looking... Graham
-
you don't let your wife have Naim do you? Next thing you know, you'll be telling us she drivers your 7 as well! Graham
-
earplugs makes it all superduper. Graham
-
"sticky tappet" noise is very common in K series engines with hydraulic followers especially if the engine has been left for a while or if the oil is contaminated with coolant. Graham
-
does it rev much more than a standard 1.6 supersport? 7400?
-
indeed...early r300=rollers, later=vvc. I wouldnt expect either to have solids. Graham
-
I'd be surprised if it had solids even if it was an early one with the roller barrels. They didn;t do too many of those before fitting the VVC IIRC. Graham
-
no it's not. I started hijacking the thread on the subject of buying, so I claim ownership of the hijack. So I want some 6" ones all round! Anyone? Graham
-
Thanks Martin, but they are a bit big for my poor old supersport. Graham
-
Paul, do you have any tips on where to go to find FF racers getting rid of them? Graham
-
Do ACB10's still get used in racing anywhere? It was good when they were used in caterham racing as you could get 2nd hand ones easily. Graham
-
I was perfectly happy with my ACB10's on the road. Currently on CR500s as they are my wet wether tyres. I polished my ACB10s and am too tight to buy some more at the moment! Graham
-
A series might do it (not a very useful comment if you haven't got one!). Graham
-
yep, me too. Just calculate the distance required from your weight and dont bounce when standing on the bar! Graham
-
ACB10's work brilliantly on my supersport on road or track. Luv em. Graham
-
tried here? 2002 site
-
the site lists all the bmw clubs and registers as well. Have you phoned and spoken to them? I did when I was looking to buy a 2002 a couple of years back. Jaymic themselves had a couple of unused 2002! Prob not what you are looking for they were £25k IIRC and suitable only really for collecting. I still hanker after a nice Tii! Graham
