  1. A Gerbing jacket with something like a Berghaus Cornice II over the top - use the same jacket for summer and winter then.

    Superlight

    To anyone thinking of buying a Superlight, I really don't think you could do better than this one - excellent condition, choice of screens, well maintained blah blah blah - or maybe I should keep quiet and hope nobody gets it before I sort a job out

    Its mileage is hardly high. I looked at Tom's car and it would be a good buy. Unfortunately, I hadn't quite sold mine at the time but now that I have, my job's gone the way of the pear. ☹️
  4. Hi Rich, although to the queue! E-mail sent.
  5. Is it still for sale? I am over your way this weekend on the lookout for an upgrade.
  6. Steve, AO32R 185 x 60 R13 H are £62 each including VAT and delivery from www.bookatrack.com, telephone 0870 744 1635.
  7. Keith, if I tell you, will you swap 7s with me...? Click here!, as they say. Nick

  9. Maritain, the spec is as below. Various pictures can be seen at http://www.rhubarb7.freeserve.co.uk/caterham/caterham.html 1.6 K Supersport Owned from new - May 1998 26000 salt free miles Built by Classic Carriage Company Regularly serviced by Classic Carriage and Hyperion 5 speed gearbox Competition exhaust 13" wheels with newish AO32Rs, including spare (on carrier) LSD FIA roll bar QR 260 mm Momo Rear arb 3 front arbs Apollo anti cavitation tank fitted by Hyperion end last year Red Cycle wings Screen, heater, hood, etc 5 point harnesses Cloth seats Starter button Ally Momo gearknob The tricky bit is price. I have long suspected that 7s are overvalued by sellers and now it's my turn... Who has recently sold one and for how much?!
  10. Pierre - who manufactures the "liquid aluminium weld" and what is it meant for? Ie, a sort of 'plastic metal' for fixing things like home radiators? It might help me to track it, or something like it, down. Thanks Nick
  11. James - be sure to measure the rolling circumference of the wheel as the tyre distorts in contact with the road. The Sigma BC1200 only seems to work if the magnet and sensor are in the same plane, ie parallel to each other, rather than forming a 'X' when they pass. I inititially had some dodgey readings but traced them to a wheel balance weight knocking the sensor. Failing that, check your maths? I applied high beardage and measured 10 wheel revolutions to counter error; however, this proved unnecessary as the final reading was only a digit or so out. Subsequent calibration of the Sigma with a GPS showed it to be accurate to a percent or so, and then comparing that with a measured mile it seems accurate to 1/100th of a mile. Richard - my wheel seemed OK without rebalancing it, but I have since moved the magnet, like Pierres, to the head of a brake disk bolt, so I can swap wheels around and retain the speedo. Although the epoxy glue is only guranateed to about 60 degrees C, it is still there after a couple of trackdays. There is some detail of mounting the display on my site at www.confessions-of-a-beard.com. Edited by - Nick on 12 Jun 2001 11:55:14
  12. I can't believe it hasn't sold. If you can find a buyer for my 1.6K Supersport, I'll have your Superlight. Nick
