Cheers
Thanks both, sounds like I'm in for an adventure, all be it a solo event!
I'm in Sihanoukville at the moment, and the girl I'm riding with managed to keep it upright after a blowout on NH4 just out of town! Luckily we were given tubes by Angkor Motorcycles when we rented the bikes, and managed to borrow a couple of 19mm spanners to use as levers.
I was amazed as a crowd of 28 people slowly gathered to watch the western chap sweat over the road-side repair.
I've just read Simon Manicom's books, in which he describes his procedure of scribing a large circle in the dirt round the bike, and employing a local to guard this makeshift workshop area.
I can see the merit on this, after many of the onlookers were so keen to 'help' me out.
Anyhoo, thanks for the encouragement.
Safe riding
