What Winter Project For @expat Jack

I used to get similar until last time I slipped 2 discs and squashed all the nerves in my spine, you really don't want to go there, seriously think at least core strengthening excersises or I hear yoga is good

 

thank you - I think the yoga thing might be a good idea - I know it fecking hurts at the moment

 

Strippage commences

 

Ok. Ok.

chain and wheels come up nice.



Radiator is excellent



Forks like new



Ligerweight genuine Triumph OE exhaust system (nice)



Shock puts most 10 year old bikes to shame.

 

OE screen back on



That will have to do you.

@RC1 tomorrow afternoon??

 

Check it runs etc well in all gears before spending loads of money or time. Any bike that’s been on it’s side is likely to have had some starvation. These bikes seem more susceptible than IL4 to starvation (like older Ducati’s).

Must be an old airfield strip somewhere you can trailer it to and run up and down a few times. Unless seller has been using for a while after crashing it .

 

It has a valid MoT and I have got the necessary parts to make it road safe, all used from eBay. I can insure it for £116 TPF&T so that’s the plan. I need to ride it on the road to check it’s fit for the track. Going out and doing 140 on an untested and unknown bike is not in my thinking.

 

Yay

 

Find a hill and run it thru the gears without revving out (like a Sunday amble) then again giving the beans

Passes that, get the road shit off and book that first track day

 

Girl

 

And?

 

Cool. I am normally available but Saturday mornings can sometimes be difficult, like today.
How was the 749?

 

I’m happy to pilot it

 

We’ll be about next time ( hopefully)

 

Front sorted. God bless eBay.

 

I see your technical tool choice hasn’t changed
