Engine and Transmission / Oil Cooler OUT Pipe/Line Part ...
Last post by cdubya - July 30, 2024, 12:06:21 AMAfternoon Gents.
Been adventuring a bunch on my trusty '05 Girly and noticed my oil cooler "out" pipe/line has taken a hit and is dripping. I'm struggling to find one online in the USA. Anyone have one laying around that they're willing to part with? Doesn't have to be new.... Just has to not leak!
Thanks much as always.
Regards,
Chuck

Girly Talk (1999 - 2006 Tigers) / Re: Tallulah's Diary
Last post by Lee337 - July 13, 2024, 05:16:41 PMSome may be surprised to hear Tallulah is still in the garage unsold after being on eBay at a buy it now of £1700. It seems she doesn't want to leave me!
Well, as she has an MOT, I've now also taxed her & took her for a ride earlier this month. She's certainly a different experience than Talyn J (the 800xc). One thing I did notice immediately was how agricultural the gearbox is, not helped by a stiff clutch, the last service being in May 2022 and 1,700 miles, nearly all of that done priopr to November 2022 when I bought Talyn J. Over 18 months tucked away in the back of the garage has done her no favours. Easy to get into 1st, 2nd was a bit clunky & finding neutral was about as easy as finding your zipper when you're bursting. You even had that kind of awkward shuffling although instead of left/right/left as you face the porcelain it was 1st/2nd/1st as you face the garage door (except you can switch the bike off, not your bladder).
So, on the bench she goes, an oil & filter change kicked off proceedings. I also decided to replace the clutch cable. I didn't think the old (Slinky Glide) cable was that bad until I removed it. While it wasn't seized, it was a bit like pulling a tricycle across sand, with a sumo wrestler sitting on it. Not impossible, but not something you'd want to do. 955i clutches are not the best anyway, so I thought a new cable would aty least ease the strain on my left hand - it did.
While I had the tank off, I gave everything as ggod clean & check over, including the IACV hoses, air filter, fuel hose and all the electrical connections. All good there. So having checked, fettled and replaced stuff, Tallulah got an full service and is, ready for the road.
Finally back together again, with fresh oil, I set off up the road. I managed to get a good 100m before I had to stop & adjusty the clutch, but with a litttle tweaking over a 15 mile ride, all was well.
I'd forgotten how much fun the 955i can be. Still think she's a tractor compared to the 800xc (who I took out to get some fuel & found myself going the long way to the local fuel station) and I doubt very much I'll be doing the miles I do with Talyn J, but I'm in no real hurry to sell her at the moment. I might even keep her for winter riding and put both Talyn J and Tabitha Trophy to bed for the winter.
Talking of Tabitha Trophy, she's next on the bench. She's overdue an oil change and has her MOT in a few weeks. I also noticed she's popping & banging far more when I shut the throttle off than she used to. When I had her on the Dyno a few years ago, the tech said a couple of the o rings on the carbs were on their way out. Might have to replace them over next winter, assuming I get Daysie's electrics sorted.
So many bikes, so little time...

Last post by Beernard - July 08, 2024, 10:55:45 AMNice save! Does the engine number shed any light? If so, I suppose you could bring it back to standard, if it has been modified in the past.
Sounds like an interesting project. All the best.
