So what have you done today..?

Very different from the norm.

 

big Ford meet out Margate direction today also.

 

The red helps! Was a very nice meal, 6 courses, and I’m stuffed. Makes it all worthwhile.

 

Looks like sea sponge, I have a few of them for decorating

 

Went here today

 

Was JC there?

 

Didn’t see him. I did watch the latest grand Tour special the other night, thought it was hilarious.

 

Yes, but a little bit flash for washing motorcars you'd thought.

 

Don't be silly as he would be ripping up mud in his Lamborghini.

 

Catching up with the motogp race only at the minute, gutted for the man in third position in the championship.

 

Corrected for you:-
MOTOGP SPOILER

My view was if you aren't sitting down watching for the secondtime around now then you've a problem in life, but thanks Mr Janitor for wiping my arse again.

 

You can place me on the naughty step later on in the season.

 

After a week in France and Belgium now sat on the Ferry in Dunkirk waiting to come home
Was looking forward to watching Aragon and Japan which should have been recorded

 

Worked…. Which seriously fucks with my social life

 

"Fabricated" some studs to re-mount the front fairing on the 2007 MTS after a drop.
started in Fusion360 and then thought: WTF... invisible location, JBweld epoxy to fill any 1 mm gaps and the headlight holder is the perfect jig. Ran to the shed and half an hour later 2 "perfect" aluminium studs some measuring, but more eyeballing.
No need to buy a replacement fairing, quite hard to get hold of a decent one, being Dutch and cheap I also saved around 100 euro's, next to this mishap a bent subframe and a broken headlight/fairing mount, found a used set for 65 euro's so bike back to normal tomorrow.
Original mounts seem to look like sacrificial parts, however they did not prevent the subframe from bending and the headlight holder from breaking after a drop from standstill, so I'm fine with 12 mm solid aluminium, not even bothering to take a couple of mm of in the middle with the lathe.

 

Well this weekend, i went and did the bronze course at ktm adventure bike experience on 390 and 890 adventure bikes

Received a phone call yesterday, my long awaited new windows will be installed in a couple of weeks. Wahoo Only problem is, that gives me 2 weeks to get the rooms cleared and a radiator isolated and removed ready for changing a window into french doors. Got my work cut out for me, I can tell you Andy
