  2. Called @nelly at Cornerspeed, to see if he had a couple of parts for my 996 project, he had both parts, so, called in and collected them

    Nice to meet another forum member, that's 2 in 2 days :upyeah:

  3. Freed up the stuck on front brakes on 748 project. Removed side stand and bracket (much heat and swearing). Spray painted it silver. Bought some period wheels. Went for a blast on the Striple.

  4. Good old dad insisted he rode the bikes down to me to put back in my garage to save me any bother . I bet he won't tax them both for me next month .

  7. Did a bit of cleaning and put a few stickers on too. I think I like them, they’re not too much, just enough.

  10. image.jpg Stripped plastics of Sons Aprilia ready for a sticker kit I’ve bought for it. Couldn’t resist starting to apply a little bit of the kit to swingarm, looks better already.

  14. Well needed wash of the S4 and fitted the mirrors back on the pani and generally moved bikes around. Really need to give @nelly a call this week and book both bikes on for a service. The s4 hasn’t had belts for over 3 years and the pani needs a couple of things sorted
     
  15. Can’t remember, probably did.

    It’s been sat on the garage bench for 6 months!
