Rotary Owners' Club

HI, I have two MotoMeter Tacho's, middle and RHS, and a Made in France, LHS, numbered 0980 091 9900 (?)

I could send you one to try if you like ?

Best Wishes to you Graham !!

I've never had to do it, but logic would suggest drain & clean oil tank; remove carbs to get access to plenum, solvent and rags ( count them in and count them out !) to clean as best you can; Flush out oil pump and supply lines. Please do wait until someone else chips in with grown up comments, ...

I believe that the latest recommendations are to use Silkolene Classic 2T premix, although you may need to clean the old oil from your system before using it, please feel free to correct me if I have strayed from the straight and narrow !!

Oh Soz, its at the Sammy Miller museum ??

Think you missed it, the event was on a few months ago, unless there is another one ??

Hope to see you there Stuart ! Sadly my IPII is still at AN, but will come on my mint VFR750 if it fine !!, regards dave p

Here's what she looked like when I owned her !!

Hi Mike, I have a shed full and am looking to thin out, so no room for the Commander unfortunately !!

Oh, just remembered, mine was not Krauser equiped !

Hi, is this my old TRL Commander ? it did go to a guy in North Wales. Unfortunately I amnot in a position to buy it back. It will make a great bike for someone, it was heavily breathed on by RN at Rugeley, but not quite to Supreme Commander spec

Yes, great to meet up, and the lamb burger was very tasty !!

Looks like they have a super evening menu, but do they do snacks for the bikers ??

Great, me too. Black R1100GS, brown leather jacket !!

I was touring Germany a good while ago with guys from work. Very heavy rain; one guy lost the front end and broke his collarbone. Turned out he was carrying a full chain and sprocket set, plus tools in his backbox - it weighed a ton !!

Well, I feel much heartened after a chat with Karl. They have a great plan which gives me confidence, and offers of support from some noted experts in the field. Might even have a run down on Saturday if the weather forecast holds. The Mighty 1100GS does 55 mpg, maybe more on a long run !

AN have my IP11, engine stripped, plates being moly coated. I will ring them today to find out if they have a plan. Gutted, anybody want an IP11 in bits ?

Oh wow, never knew about this one ! Is it every Wednesday in summer? Will have a run over if so !!

I was toying with the idea of a run down, but at 220 miles/ 4 hours each way (Drax) it's a fair run - not to mention the cost of fuel !!

Have a look at page two of their catalouge

Just spotted this - passes ten minutes pleasantly enough !

They are fairly easy to take apart; a couple of special tools need, I could lend you.

The realy tricky bit is getting them back together so that they work, best left to the experts !!

Hi James, these folk look like they could help, and as the bike is over 25 years old, it looks like it might not need to meet all the later regulations ??

We don't do much either, and being of a "certain age", staying up to the small hours with a bottle of port (happy days) are over !! Very Best Wishes to all, have a Safe & Happy 2024 !!

Nice looking bike, but how much are you asking ??

Does anyone now of the whereabouts of my old Commander. I sold it many years ago to a really nice Gent, Mike i think, from North Wales. He had a few more rotaries, including an F1 I think. The TRL has not been on the road for over 10 years. If it is stuck in a shed I would love it back

Hi Richard, unfortunately I have neither the space nor the need for any more kit ! Best Wishes dp

Cheers Richard, great to meet up again. Still trying to figure out what I am going to do with the 10kg of Vaseline though !!

Cheers Richard, that endplate might come in handy. IP11, 3366, EX Cypress RAF, is at Andover Norton with a noisy engine. RP suspects a shot bearing but we will see. If I use it I will make a suitable donation to the Air Ambulance; otherwise I will hang on to it until someone else may need it. Best R...

Good Evening Richard, I will give you a ring on Saturday to arrange if that is OK, I am 90 minutes away from you. You and Pete overhauled my TRL Commander at Rugeley many moons ago, happy days indeed ! What other "stuff" are you disposing of, anything to interest an IP 11 owner ?? Best Reg...
