Back in the saddle.
Just to update everyone been at LPB today to have my engine fitted back on my rib, BRP have replaced the whole unit but Ian did have some mither from them wanting photos etc. they also told him that they believe that the engine had been misused  but they can't prove it so they are doing it as good will. "BOLOCKS" anyway it's now back on which is the main thing and I hope that there will be no more problems. My next trip out will be November depending on the weather.

Glad you're sorted Steve.
Naughty response though. If they believe it, why replace it?
