Thanks Adam/Simon, Yes I figured a busy school would not have time to check harnesses. Parajet quoted £150 for a check but can't do it on the same day. That is great if there is a local repair shop. Motor runs great but I am not 100% sure the harness has been reattached correctly. Had to take it off in haste and removed the seat board etc. If you do manage to secure a club site I would be very interested. Cheers Wayne

Hello Paramotor Club members, Having trained to BHPA club pilot level I have finally invested in some kit. A Parajet Zenith with Polini Thor 190 ES and Dudek Universal 1.1 wing Unfortunately as I was transporting it back from purchase the fuel cap was loose and fuel leaked onto the harness : / As petrol is a solvent and would degrade webbing and stitching I decided to remove the harness from the chassis to clean and dry it out. There is still a slight petrol smell from the foam padding on the shoulder strap and back padding. The Zenith manual explains how to reattach the upper frame part to the numbered slots and I have looked at the Dudek comfort harness manual but I am a bit wary as there is not a lot of information. In particular I couldn't remove one of the offset pins from the pivot arm(must have been thread locked) so detached it at the interlocking 'pass through' buckle below it. Is there a technique to attaching the pass through buckle securely? Any info much appreciated. I am just kiting at the moment but looking for a launch site. Is there anywhere near Newbury or Basingstoke? Any clubs around that area? Thanks, Wayne.
