How many slaves do you have ? Got any testimonials ? Don’t want no cheap jack job done. Andy

Tom, Dick and Harry for those hidden tunnels, just to access your buried gold bars.

 

Started to reassemble my bevel heads

 

Repainted these three items for the superlight.

 

Are they going on a Yellow or red SL or have you got two of them ?

 

Changed the belts on my 749

 

Might seem small to some but I received a very positive review from my Observer Health Check today. Going to have an Indian carry out and a beer to celebrate. Andy

 

They're for a set of red fairings that needed a clean up.

 

These were delivered yesterday


One for the Scrambler and one for SWMBO's car. Not a day too soon, as she went out on Friday evening, came home and forgot the internal light on. Result? Flat battery yesterday morning when we needed to go shopping Not the first time... Two hours on charge was enough to be able to get going, and two hours after we got back was enough for the charger to go into 'maintenance' mode. Well impressed!

Will set up a permanent connection for the Scrambler today.

 

I hacksawed the rear end off a perfectly good low mileage Monster S2R to fit a tail tidy, I did make sure it was reversible though, I like to be able to put things back to stock if needed! I havent fitted the bungs in the frame at this point as I'm waiting for the paint to dry, she looks much better now, made the whole bike look more aggressive and chonky!

 

Took a clutch out of a B*W R1200RT. What a job....

 

Topped up battery, cleaned the bike, checked tyre pressures, checked fluid levels, refitted fairings, fired her up to full temp (fan kicking in) and put larger number plate in readiness for the MOT next week.

 

Hoovered the garage, had some extra security fitted to our roller garage doors.

 

Trying very hard not to let OCD creep into my life. Bought a pack of 6, cheap, plastic boxes with lids to put cleaning stuff, oils, greases, brake fluid, WD40, chain cleaner and lubricant in. Also used one to hold all my duplicate sockets and screw drivers. Still got a lot of “stuff” that needs sorting, grouping and finding a home for ……… that is not in the garage. Andy

 

Changed front sprocket on track bike. Down 1.
God bless the Clarkealike Moss rattle gun

 

Ordered our tickets for Le Mans Motogp. Staying about twenty minutes away for Saturday and Sunday night. I think Mrs J biker might be more excited than me! She has been watching the races with me on motogp.com for a few years too, knows most the names and bikes.
Our last live Motogp was in the UK around 6 years ago..
Crazy collie is staying with friends, she is a complete tart and happy to be with anyone (the dog)

 

Wheels off as it's time for new tyres - loads of tread on the olds ones but they are 7 years old !
