Yep - in the garage....got an old dell monitor with a speakerbar hooked up to a satellite receiver. Always have to pause to watch that video...i remember when it first came out our plasterer was working in the basement....came up to the kitchen for water, saw the video and said "saw this last week" not a fan of the song but hit the nail on the head with the video...
Not much happened today....workday, but, got in contact with a local stainless supplier so, we'll be paying him a visit tomorrow with an indian takeaway tub full of nuts and bolts with a view to getting as much as possible in stainless. Were hoping that the swing arm and bottom yoke will be ready also....assuming it is we'll take that to the local engineer to get the bushes pressed in.....if that happens...building starts wednesday evening...
Bolts nuts and bolts dropped off. Hopefully should get a call tomorrow for the bolts and hopefully the swing arm and lower yoke.
Stai less wholesaler my mate found is great value for money... Here what we dropped off.... Here's what we picked up for 30 quid... I got extra as I don't know what I'm going to need additionally... Plus I wanted some spares myself... Opposite hrs motorcycles just up from trinity Road nick... Great value for money.. Ive no idea who that is in the foreground before anyone asks....
Replacement fuel pipes (in Red), swingarm collected along with yoke. Brake pads front and rear arrived also.....set for building this weekend now.
Build day today....weather is nice and mild outside, cup of tea and crumpets first with WSB fp2 on...
If i get it finished. While ive got the chance im going (first before i actually start bolting stuff together) take the wiring loom apart and run a set of mains to the front of the bike, hes got a tracker, heated grips and ive got a spare HID headlight we're going to wire in, he also wants a denali horn (i highly reccommend if you can fit one in) so that would mean running cables back and forth across the bike making it messy. Plan is to split the loom add the cable put a small fuse box at the front and then run the stuff from there reducing the spaghetti...
More pics... Swingarm and bottom yoke. The swingarm was the worst part of the bike.... 60% rusted I would say...
