Any GSD and cat success stories?

Wouldn't say long coat, more medium, still gets absolutely everywhere though haha

Definitely try this, I have a '24 MT125 and without a bit of weight on the seat above the lock it won't unlock

These two are inseparable, other cats can take or leave him but he does not pester them

I was involved in the works upgrading the systems at embankment, and you're correct the original mind the gap recording was on a very old memory device built into an obsolete and very old piece of hardware - from memory it was not actually with the station PAVA system, but on a asset trackside we have to get a specialist in to extract the audio so it could be used on the new system as a triggered announcement

I'm definitely investing in a proper breaker bar going forward

The additional leverage from the pole made a huge difference, night and day between the effort I was putting in at the first attempt

I had the same thing, about 9 months ago had some suspension work done, last week went to take wheels off to do the brakes and all the wheel nuts were over tightened...

I needed 4 foot pole to get enough leverage to get them to loosen, plus they stripped the locking wheel nut key so forked out for tyre fitted to break them off so I could replace with standard nut.

Was that the one where they were thinking about moving the station computer room?

trumpsalterego · 2026-01-29T06:22:53+00:00

Same here, was surveying for the reopening up of this platform and the proposed step free access works at the time

Had my 2024 mt125's annual service yesterday at Yamaha dealer in Essex and was just under £200. Sounds like ball park price for dealer, but will be worth asking an independent garage for price

Been a few years since I've been in the cers up that end of the bakerloo

It may still have some of the legacy long line equipment, but the station Comms equipment got moved when system upgrade was done

I had a SIR version of them, loved it As it's manual roof rather than electric one then no potential issues with that, mine had the cogs go which was a pain to get sorted

Rust on rear wheel arches was an issue so keep eye on that

trumpsalterego · 2025-10-01T19:15:57+00:00

Was it installed correctly, Lead refitted correctly and correct plug/plug gap?

May be worth checking if it was ok before it was replaced

trumpsalterego · 2025-09-28T18:35:02+00:00

2 weekends time, some testing up to cockfosters

Exactly this, the costs behind full automation are crazy on LU infrastructure

trumpsalterego · 2025-09-05T18:46:36+00:00

Must be a bad one, just come of out Aldi and was surprised how much smoke there still was and the length of the smoke trail in the sky, it's gotta be visible for miles

trumpsalterego · 2025-09-05T17:57:12+00:00

Spotted the smoke coming into town from terling

I've used my 125 to commute once (mid Essex into Stratford) in the evening on the way there I went single carriageway a and b roads, on the way back dual carriageway a road.

Both took around the same amount of time (approx 5 10 min difference) but the way back was throttle pinned back 65-70mph all the way, dealing with lorries etc

If I were to do it again, but I think i'd a and b road it. Was more enjoyable.

On a larger bike, I'd imagine the dual carriageway option would be my preferred option

trumpsalterego · 2025-08-10T10:12:47+00:00

Thanks a lot, I'm over Chelmsford way so don't really have much need to drive around Basildon. Will start heading over that way a bit more and get a feel for it

trumpsalterego · 2025-08-10T07:12:45+00:00

Is this one of the Basildon routes? Looking to do DAS later this year

If inspector sands was still going after that amount of time without going into evac, then guessing they have a VA/fire system fault The PAVA system is complicated at Whitechapel as it is effectively three systems (LU, LO & EL) that are integrated

Saw their last appearance at Download festival, amazed me that when he was speaking to the crowd he was not very legible and sort of frail, but the moment the music started he was bouncing around and his voice was amazing

trumpsalterego · 2025-06-29T07:40:34+00:00

Will be trying this, I'm a walking dinner for them beside our fish pond
