So what have you done today..?

Bloody good, and nice, work Joe. Is that for a client or yourselves?

ps I was only ribbing you about the low ceilings

 

Thank you. Annoyingly (and inevitably), a client’s. This one ex. Colin McRae now owned by another automotive bigwig.
Mine is next on the list and will be far more extravagant, hence the shelves I already started on. Holiday first though, assuming I get paid!

 

Been shopping for tyre's

 

Just setting off on my trip to, and around, the UK, having just bought tickets earlier for Donnington this coming Sunday. Sorry @Birdie I may as well go to Donnington for the WSB as I'm in the West Midlands that weekend and it coincides with it, so a slight change of plan.

 

got your paintbrushes?

 

Looks great and may have to plagiarise that sliding door into the en-suite for our gaff.

 

Nice work there @JoeC very tasty!! Liking the old lockers up cycling!

 

Received a phone call from a friend of a friend that needed their fab aprillia dorsoduro motorcycle collected from one motorbike trader and taken to another,the bike has ECU problems & maybe the alarm is the causeanyone a nice local trip out in the sunshine.

 

Panzer-vurst(GS) got an interim service & new front rotors.
Service droid brought in bit of paint that got tickled off the front wheel

 

No room

 

BUMS!!!
As I live in a crime free area I never have to use a disk lock or anything like that. Last night, when I parked up at the B&B in Pembroke I put one on. This morning I forgot I had!

 

Ouch............the criminals are f##king it up for everyone in this country

 

Installed a kitchen tap for a client and now i have some petrol money for a rideout.hmmm which bike

 

After a day out on the panigale yesterday - I've spent the morning removing the baked on bugs and flies and giving it a bit of a polish - looks much better.

I've done a thousand miles on a bike in a day before, but 250 on the panigale almost crippled me

 

DIY plumbing myself this am. Plunged kids bath, fixed stiff mixer tap abs replaced tap washer in en suite. Going for a ride this afternoon with the money I saved (until my handiwork fails when I will need the services of a real plumber!!).

 

Miles away2.5 hours

 

That could be pretty costly then. Never mind☹️

 

The horrors of ignoring what’s going on behind the posh, shiny, carbon swing arm cover . Robarano’s post about his helicoil kit prompted me to look at a couple knackered bolt heads and dodgy threads in the swing arm that I should have looked at a long time ago. 3 helicoil inserts, 1 repaired thread and 7 threads cleaned out and a tap run down later, the bottom chain slider, swing arm carbon cover, long rear hugger and crud catcher can be securely reattached. That is after I’ve de-greased the whole swing arm and taken a wire brush to the flaking paint before priming and repainting what I can get at. Job jobbed so time for a snack and a blat out to make sure everything stays in place. Andy
