Too much to even think about let alone write down here. The 18 month old granddaughter is here. That's why!
Put the ZXR 400 in the dining room for winter, cleaned and polished the 'Blade ready for taking in to dealers, and took the 748 for its service also before taking to ducati Manchester. Another week closer to getting the Pani :tongue:
Productive night tonight on my project at MADASL Racing. Airbox modified and fitted: Mocked up some Ducati i.e milled intakes to see what they look like: So I am now looking at getting some made to fit the carbs properly. They look so good though. Finally decided on a headlight for it: Original Monster one, I just need the chrome ring that holds it together!! Yorkie
Picked up my 1st Scania 8 wheeler tipper Truck today After 6 years of hiring in lorries I have taken the plunge and bought one ! Named her Charlotte after my 1st daughter, hope the driver doesn't mind. onwards and upwards, the economy better be improving ! :smile:
We pay extra tax in the beautiful south not to have to deal with that kind of thing. Never drops below 18 deg in Surrey...
Some idiot managed to twat my van while I was stationary, then drove off without stopping. Nice. Wasn't able to give chase so I rung 101 and got through to the Met police, and the most Cockney voice I have ever heard. "What way's he headed bruv?" Towards Wandsworth Bridge. "Sneaky fucker! Don't worry geez, we'll have 'im in a headlock before he gets off the bridge".:biggrin:
Just ridden all across the wastes of South London in the rain this afternoon. On the way back, the South Circular from Catford to Eltham had a huge diesel slick all the way. Some truck must have leaked gallons all over the road for miles. Fortunately I stayed upright by creeping along at 10mph with both feet on the ground. I went past about 10 bikers who had fallen off at various places. There was so much diesel on my boots they kept slipping off the pegs. It was just like black ice. Should I remove the diesel residue on underside of the bike? Or is it better to leave it there for the winter I wonder?
Meanwhile, in west London, I had to overtake a Diavel in my van cos he was doing 20mph - no diesel slick available for excuses. And I sincerely hope the guy with the black Streetfighter parked in Mayfair Place got home, cos his fancy alarm was going off for at least 2 hours...
Worked and popped out in the rain to put £250 quids worth of diesel in my lorry. Been on the road for 2 days and that's over £700 in diesel. I'd be pissed off if my lorry was spilling it ! Still it's full for a busy day Monday time for beer !
