Re: Commander Krauser for sale
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

Re: wheel balance
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 !!

Re: Andover Norton open day
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 !

Re: Andover Norton open day
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 !!

Re: Commander rotary engine
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 !!

Re: Norton Rotary Classic
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 ??

TRL Commander, H831 GRX ??
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

Re: FREE on collection
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...
