Rotary Owners' Club

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...

Had a belt up today on the mighty R1100GS, well worth the fresh conditions for the latte and carrot cake !! Heated grips eased the numb fingers on the way home !!

I will look after them for you if you wish, until...

Hi JB, when did you last change the fob battery ?? I renew mine, inc the spare, every couple of years or so, worth a try ?? Regards dp

Hi MIke, could you cut and paste the text please; sorry but I'm not in the NOC !!

Hi Roy, the gauge I have is marked 310 274/1/46, 12V, 3.88.

PM your address and I will pop it in the post for you to try. Buy me a pint next time !!

I have a box full of bits, I will have a dig round and let you know !!

Hi Guys, yes JB, the Big Beemers are tall & heavy, but still well worth it for me. They handle so well and have plenty of grunt !! Hi GP, my interpol also can't be far off now, dying to get some miles in soon. She too has plenty of pull, and also handles very well. We loved our Commander, plenty...

Hi from Sunny Drax, My IP11 is at the moment in the tender care of PR at AN. The engine started making horrible noises; and some of the blame must lie with me - again !! I'm sure that Paul & Team will return her to fine running order !! Will Keep you posted and I will write a piece for the Epi T...

I have seen 85/140 GL5 recommended, and is what I use. I have used a moly additive in the past, but not currently, Good Luck with 3rd !!

Not me, I don't have a Commander; just a sickly IP11 !!

Hi Guys, my wife has to cover her ears as I pull out of the drive; such is the noise from the IP11 engine. She starts instantly, pulls like a train, all is great apart from the noise ( the bike of course - not the wife !). I can feel nasty rumbles coming from both Air Transfer Ports and the screwdri...

Many thanks for your reply Anthony. I will check all around for air leaks, again !! I will also recheck the oil pump "C" setting before the the engine gets hot - the throttle angle when cold will be a better datum I guess.

Well, after much gnashing and heartache the IP11 is now back on top form once again. She had been coughing and spluttering, going down onto one rotor, most unhappy. I had convinced myself the carbs were to blame; I cleaned the dashpots several times, twiddled with the idle screw. I had even obtained...

Grab rail now fitted after some minor butchery, the bracket fits perfectly "inside" the frame, all good in that department. The carbs however are a different story. Out for a blast a few nights ago; came out of the Offy to find a pool of petrol under the bike and it would not start. On ins...

Works a treat !

Hi JB, I dare'nt sell the Bemmer, I've only just bought it and they do ride so nicley. It's more about technique when handling these beasts, which I have now got used to. An Ice Hockey Puck bolted to the over-short sidestand helps a huge amount too !

Hi JB, no rallies for me this year I'm afraid. I am not totally happy with the way the bike is running, carb issue I think. My back is also recovering from wrestling with a BMW R1100GS I have just bought, fantastic bikes but jeez are they heavy !!

Ah, Sussex, bit far for a run out really !!

Hi Rupert, I have just bought a "civilianised" IP 11, which came with a couple of boxes of misc bits and bobs, inc these two which you may find usefull ?? Drop me a line to have a rummage or just a chat. Are you local to Selby ??

Cheers John, looking at the AN parts drawings, the Classic bracket does look like it bolts on the the outer face of the frame, but the IP 11 bracket is different, bolting on the inner side of the frame. I am 90% of the way to hacking/mating it all up, and it does look OK so far Regards dp

IP 11 Grabrail fitting Dear All, I am trying to fit a LHS grabrail to the 3366 IP11. I have the parts 55 & 58 as shown on AN Frame Suspension and Fittings drawings, so far so good. The bracket does not appear to be a straight fit to the “inside/underneath” of the frame, there is a bent over stif...

Hi, it would be great to meet up with other Rotary Folk, and as the weather is set fair for a while - a run up to Seaways Cafe at Fridaythorpe may well be in order _ anyone fancy ?? Early afternoons are best for me ??

May I ask why you are going "the other way" and might the hydraulic bits be for sale at some point. I fitted a Hyd conversion and thought that it was better than the cable set-up ?

Well, we are getting somewhere !! The carb pistons & chambers are spotless, both jets are set to 3.2mm down; she now has new battery – the voltage on the old one fell to 8v when the starter was buttoned. The large white multi-pin connector under the instrument cluster is now firmly clicked into ...

Hi Kieth, I cant find anything, the item number brings up nowt, unless I am using it wrongly. Can you put a link in ?

Many thanks Tony, I will keep you posted, regards dp
