Another Z3 Compact convert from HTC here. Best phone I've ever had.

Me too, had it over ten years now and it's never let me down.

as I get more and more used to having a girl I want to cover her in bubble wrap a lot more

You think like this now, wait until she arrives.

Since my two have been born I have the firearms licence and shotguns all ready for when "boyfriends" hit the scene in approx 10 yrs time.

My daughter brought her first boyfriend home after I insisted on meeting him. When he'd gone she asked me if I liked him. 

I replied "He's still got his teeth hasn't he"

That sounds Neil Hodgson.

A good strong cable threaded through helmet and leathers all shoved into a bin liner and locked to your bike is a better deterrent than just leaving them in the tent. But having said that if someone wants to nick them they will.  However, I've done a fair bit of what your planning around the UK and never had so much as a sock stolen.

Thanks Yorkie, next time your down Naaarfuk visiting JW maybe we'll get out for a few wet ones.

To be honest it does sound more like bearing noise now I've thought about it and after Gav planted the seed.  I did have a tight spot in the chain before I changed it last winter. It could have caused some damage to the output shaft bearing.  As it's just at the irritating stage at the moment I might leave it for a while to see how it develops.

Chain isn't too tight so I'm guessing you'd be inclined towards the output shaft bearing.  I've never heard of this being a problem on 9's, have you Gav?  I'll investigate further.

tell her on the back to shut up 

Tried that, never works!   

Yes it does Gav.

F2 model with 45,000 miles.  When I'm on a positive throttle opening it's fine but when I close the throttle and engine speed drops to about 2200 rpm a little whinining noise occurs that is irritating the hell out of me.

I'm leaning towards the cam chain tensioner but thought i'd ask for a few opinions before diving in.  Also at 45,ooo miles if it is the tensioner would it be wise to change the cam chain while I'm at it.

Looking forward to the Ninja knowledge.

Welcome, nice to have a member that's green in the middle if you cut them in half.

I have two, hang,draw and quarter me I'm green throughout! There's more of us than you think. Welcome     

No we haven't. There are more of us than it seems.  We own Ninjas so we don't have to shout as loud as other bike owners. 

My mate has a 05 12R in black. Fooking raw power. Nothing subtle and I love riding it.

Welcome by the way.

my money is still on a coil breaking down...

Mine too Mark, I've had other people ask me about this type of fault on G J and A models over the years and it's always been a coil. They just seem prone to it for some reason. I'd have a look on ebay for a spare and just swap them 'til you find that it's fixed.


Just had quick look and there's loads on there.

Made me chuckle.
