  1. Happy birthday!
    You timed that poorly, didn't you?
     
  2. Woke up to find water coming through the bedroom ceiling - something leaking in airing cupboard above which houses hot water tank and header

    Happy 2014

    I need a plumber :mad:
     
  3. Watching storage hunters on Dave. Ok it's all hammed up for cameras, but do they not understand the concept of an auction?

  4. Progress at last today, finished assembling a fully refurbished racing mag alloy swing arm. It's got new bearings, spacers, bushes, Brembo 916 Factory Racing caliper, alloy billet caliper carrier, 998 cush drive, AFAM sprocket carrier, Renthal sprocket, pukka DP long chain sliders and carbon swing arm cover. Also managed to remove the standard 45mm headers without any dramas and fitted 996sps 50mm headers with new studs and nuts. New DP 30mm offset triple clamps all torqued up and I should be ready now to turn the bike round in preparation to lift the frame off the engine to change over the swing arm. Is that a light I see at the end of the tunnel or is it just some bugger with a torch coming the other way ? A few pictures of the swing arm up loaded to my album if anyone is interested. Andy
     
  5. Applied for another job, going swimming later.
     
  6. Been calculating and negotiating most of the day :smile:
     
  7. Did Driver Awareness Training, got a text from Boss saying there wasn't much point in my coming in to work afterwards after all so met up with some mates at Loomies and went for a spin up to Odiham and back to S'ton. Slowly getting closer to finding suspension settings I'm happy with, still abit of fiddling left to do but a jolly enjoyable couple of hours in the saddle nonetheless :)
