I think I am correcting is saying only civi police have the calibrated Speedo fitted, so that may well be a clue, most of the MOD ones have the blackout switch. got any photos? especially of the Speedo head, and switcheson the left side

in that case mate, spend the 70ish and get the samsung.. no external power supply need and pocket size... with 1TB capacity.... and even a choice of colours....

Have editted my posting DOH! sure there are cheaper units of same memory size put not as small and portable (no need for external power supply)

If you want something hand a portable I can recomend the Samsung S2, they now offer a 1TB version and currently selling on ebay for around £75 inc p+p.. its very neat and small size for its capacity... 11.1 x 8.2 x 2 cm ; 195 g http://www.ebuyer.com/product/239086 sorry forgot to put this as well.... DOH!!! http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=samsung+s2+portable+1tb&_sacat=See-All-Categories

I think the return trip from Wigan to London worked out round £900 :wow:so not cheap, but an impressive day out... :nut:

Someone seems to have bid 7995 for it... :shocked: mmmm yea lets wait and see if it comes back on as a no sale

Andy, I have vauge memories of this, and it was recharged - but cant remember who done it??? but it all worked find back in the days when I owned it sure it was refered to as the accumulators as said.... sorry cant remember more...

Mad Mark Rowlands aka the nutty professor was doing this back in the early 90s.... now that man knew/knews his stollys... Any one remember his conversion?? if my memory serves me right a K60 multi fuel? extended cab... I know i must have photos somewhere...

Maybe ALong recovery could help? http://www.alongrecovery.co.uk/ Andy Has loads of large hevy kit and the Low Loader to move it all, so he is used to moving most thinsgs, maybe worth a call ?

UNFICYP use any white.. the civi fleet are just as they come from the dealers, and the armoured are just any white that can be sorced at the time. so no paint code. MINUSTAH again civi fleet as supplied by the dealers, military kit was/is any shade of white. both matt or gloss.

something very much like this was used on the back of the FV 43? serise.... and i think I have seen this on the back of a radio pod???

I will tell tha packie that... as he said the other day he should have brought then......LOL :cool2:

LOL just wasnt sure my mate would want his mug post up...... LOL

Hi Andy, My old baby looks sad, now that I am back home I will look through to see what i have in reference to our chat... best regards and good luck with the restoration this picture is from around 1997 this one is from around 1994/95

The road traffic law Cleary states that no one other than authorised authorities may use blue lights, and that a lamp is not a lamp if covered– except if it is blue! It also states if fitted it counts wether or not it is connected/working. It also states that any material cable of reflecting light can also be classed the same. So yes you were breaking the law by having the blue lights fitted and covered. The simple solution is to have a set of either yellow or clear lenses fitted, I would suggest the yellow as it is more obvious that you are showing you’re not impersonating (remember impersonation can be described as what someone sees- i.e. just because you’re wearing black is not a get out various police forces use all black with just a hivis band over the shoulder and round the waist. What I believe to see compared to someone else can be so different.) Does the bike have any wording on it? If so is it clearly crossed out or better still signs on the bike saying out of service or film unit – providing you use it in film or TV work- proof maybe needed for this. We use to run 5 pans for various reasons, all were marked correctly and used yellow lenses on public highways, yes we did have various stops, but never any issues, we have even worked with various police forces whilst escorting private/classic military vehicles/convoys and abnormal loads (not just classic military). So my advice would be, take the blues off show the yellows clearly and cross out any signage with black tape or better still get some stickers saying out of service to put over any wording. Carry any documents to prove what you use them for. Good luck and safe riding. For the record we still have these type of bikes in the club only now they are the newer BMW’s and still without issues.
