Jeroen (AKA Jay and an occasional contributor here) is from the Netherlands and came out here to NZ for a year to do an internship. That done he is touring about looking at the place. He turned up at mine a few days back.
He holds a typical Guzzi tool. I should have taken a better pic of his bike. It is a militarised V50. Nato bike.
Access to a garage here was the ideal opportunity for him to deal to a misbehaving transmission.
Reassembly
In the course of all this we visited Hayes Hardware for some stuff. A must do in any case. Jay was particularly taken by the Norman Hayes Engine
This is it. It was built by the firms founder as the result of a bet that he couldn't build a working engine out of scraps he had in his garage.
I had to get a guy in Hayes to start it up to prove to Jay that it worked.
In all, a pleasant encounter.
