Just been whipping round on my nice new (to me, I got it Thursday) '28 today, just popped down to Matlock Bath for a quick tea then going down the bypass to see if Monkey is home yet to show off my new toy to him, doing about 115mph on the (push bike it's got an HRC 030 card) speedo went to get another gear only to find I am in top and on the redline, thinks "probably shouldn't do this" just as the engine died, it didn't seize, it just lost power, so I pulled the clutch in just case it was going to lock and pulled over.
It seemed seized as I stopped then as I was messing about trying to get it into neutral it started to be able to be pushed in gear, then it started OK but had absolutely no power at all and it popped like crazy at low revs, if there were any big hills on the way home I'd have been pushing.

I knew I shouldn't be riding it like that before I'd had it checked properly but I just couldn't stop...........

Oh well live and learn, all part of the "fun", I'll post some pics when I find my camera and shed key. Both of which are hiding somewhere.
