  12. what else i done today..... i had some bedding that needed washing.. the land lady has gone away for a few days so today was a perfect time to get it done...
    lets just say i didnt want her doing the washing this time... anyhu, im all secret squirrel in the laundry room and about to put the sheets in the machine when in walks the 80 yr old lady thats staying in the cottage next door and tells me there is no way i should be washing my own sheets, its melony's job and then basically starts to try and wrestle them out of my hands!!!!
    i manage to get em in the machine, then she is asking why am i using so much washing powder.. so much for a covert operation... i know the old biddy is gunna grass me up...

  14. Didn't do for a ride because I was supposed to cut down a tree, but it is too windy/gusty for that so all I've done is lube a chain and supervise the cooking of a rabbit madras :yum (the two last events aren't connected ;))

  16. i like that alot! electricery is not my bag at all but i would like one of those on all my bikes. is it bike specific? or cool for all bikes? where does it connect/plug in to?
     
  17. Just a generic voltmeter with USB, dead cheap from Ebay.

    I spliced it into the DIN socket on the right side panel.

  18. hmmm... i just disconnected a cheap usb thingy from my ss as it was draining the battery ... i thought if nothing was plugged in to it it would be fine but it turns out is was the source of my troubles. since disconnecting my battery starts the bike fine after sitting for a week or 2. prior it would be dead in 2 days..
