  2. Thank you. Annoyingly (and inevitably), a client’s. This one ex. Colin McRae now owned by another automotive bigwig.
    Mine is next on the list and will be far more extravagant, hence the shelves I already started on. Holiday first though, assuming I get paid!

  5. Just setting off on my trip to, and around, the UK:), having just bought tickets earlier for Donnington this coming Sunday:D. Sorry @Birdie I may as well go to Donnington for the WSB as I'm in the West Midlands that weekend and it coincides with it, so a slight change of plan.

  13. BUMS!!!:mad:
    As I live in a crime free area I never have to use a disk lock or anything like that. Last night, when I parked up at the B&B in Pembroke I put one on. This morning I forgot I had:mad:!

  16. After a day out on the panigale yesterday - I've spent the morning removing the baked on bugs and flies and giving it a bit of a polish - looks much better.

    I've done a thousand miles on a bike in a day before, but 250 on the panigale almost crippled me :)

  17. DIY plumbing myself this am. Plunged kids bath, fixed stiff mixer tap abs replaced tap washer in en suite. Going for a ride this afternoon with the money I saved (until my handiwork fails when I will need the services of a real plumber!!).

  20. The horrors of ignoring what’s going on behind the posh, shiny, carbon swing arm cover :scream:. Robarano’s post about his helicoil kit prompted me to look at a couple knackered bolt heads and dodgy threads in the swing arm that I should have looked at a long time ago. 3 helicoil inserts, 1 repaired thread and 7 threads cleaned out and a tap run down later, the bottom chain slider, swing arm carbon cover, long rear hugger and crud catcher can be securely reattached. That is after I’ve de-greased the whole swing arm and taken a wire brush to the flaking paint before priming and repainting what I can get at. Job jobbed so time for a snack and a blat out to make sure everything stays in place. Andy
