  1. Get the Triumph out then Figaro !
     
  2. We've got the drought back today so doesn't look as if there is going to be whole lot of motorcycling this weekend.
    Now... where's my guitar?
     
  3. Made a bracket under the seat on the 748 to strap my Kriega bag to ready for the IOM trip.

    It should keep the straps from rubbing the paintwork.

  6. Na burns so well, stainless is good for furniture!
     
  7. I may have got over-excited and ripped the bike apart more than intended...

    The way I see it, if you're gonna strip the bike down, you may as well get a load of jobs done at the same time. Only I underestimated the timescale:frown:. Forks are back in, but the rear end's out, footrests are off, clutch still to do...I've got a busy day tomorrow.
     
  8. Put a new fuel pump relay in, gave the bike a quick wash and made the horrific discovery that I have puff pastry stantions, need some new ones now :(
     
  9. If you've got right-way-uppies, give All Bike Engineering in Greenwich a call. They make new ones on site. You might get lucky.
     
  10. What have I done today?

    Cut the bl**dy grass for the second time in a week.....about a third of an acre............Drought my ar*e.

    AL.
     
  11. Bought some carbon-look vinyl wrap to finish off my Triumph footrests...
