New headshield and fitted the tank! Basked in the reflective glory of my efforts and watched the rugby... happy daze.
Put some more parts on ebay.Still loads to get rid of plus a couple of old bikes which have been sulking in the workshop. Can't wait for the chancers on ebay contacting me-not.
Renewed the insurance to both bikes with BeMoto, and having made a couple of minor amendments it was done efficiently and without fuss and importantly with a £31 reduction to the cost from last year. And to celebrate I went out on the Scrambler and did 40 brisk miles around the country lanes which was lovely And I've just booked the Scrambler in for it's first MOT in April, which is the first bike I've had to MOT in around 30 years as I normally dont hang on to them this long But I love riding it and it is deffo a keeper
Managed to get out on the bike yesterday , Had a meeting in Truro, at a shop we are fitting out. First ride for probably 4 months. Bit chilly in the morning, but a lovely sunnyish ride home 200 mile round trip. Will give me an excuse to clean her the weekend, not that I need an excuse
Took the Scrambler to Victor motorcycles for its MOT , just an advisory for the chain which is being replaced early April .
Just had a 3 hour blast round Rutland on my Mutley 1260 Pikes Peak, what a bloody awesome bike, never get tired of this superb creation, puts a huge smile on my face every time!
You know you can do as I do and lower your side window and stick your head out to look behind you, or are you worried you’ll scare passers by?
Spent all morning pulling the 1199 exhaust off. De butterfly valved and 18mm lambda sensor bosses positioned, drilled and all ready for TIG welding in tomorrow.
Just about to head to Halfords to collect some snow foam I ordered online yesterday using my Halfords card Later on I will be washing the Scrambler and reapplying acf50 again, though that bit may happen tomorrow.
Upgraded the indicators, should sort the intermittent bad contact issue with the bulb in the left indicator.
Spent 20 mins this morning TIGing the new Lambda bosses on and blocking off the butterfly valve stem. It strange thinking about this... 30 years ago I would have been bricking them in case a gaffer caught me doing gubby jobs on the side in work’s time and now I felt so good about doing a job for the bike and getting paid for it. Exhaust back on and just about ready for the re map.
