  1. That really sucks , really sucks

    I hope you get the support you need
     
  2. We get a PCP/PCH allowance which is not quite that high, 40ppm, car has to be under 5 years old, under 6 months old when purchased, have to have a maintenance package with it (full service including tyres) and until recently had to be 4/5 doors/seats, no convertible, etc. I wish I had your deal.
     
  3. Sorry for your news Sev, that really sucks. Sometimes life seems to enjoy repeatedly kicking you square in the bollocks.
     
  4. So sorry to hear that Sev.I pray that your wife gets all the best help possible and you both get plenty of love and support from family and friends.

  5. apart from working on the 4th floor of a building with no lift and having to cart all my tools and materials up and all rubbish down i have apparently nearly killed a Lycra wearing homo. happened about an hour ago on the ruislip rd in greenford.. If by some bizarre twist of fate said homo is on here i have a couple of pieces of advice..
    1 wearing lycra is not cool full stop.
    2 wearing black lycras on a black bike at night with no head light is not smart
    3 riding as fast as you can down the cycle lane (on the left) through a left hand exit in peak hour traffic (there has got to be at least one car that wants to turn left) is just plain stupid.
    4 in some situations abusing a driver that by the luck of the gods managed to see you and managed to stop before even entering the cycle lane could result in more pain than getting run over.
    I am not one of those drivers (lucky you).. If by chance you are on here pm me to discuses how to fit a head light and how to wake up and maybe live a little longer.
    If he aint on here yoal get the gist of my day

  7. Anodizing is all done & I must say it looks 1000 times better than powder coating or paint, this was a 2 step process so that heat and time will not make it fade...the CNC lines are visible and all that little detail is still there...I am very happy with the results now time to put everything back together...

  8. Just been fettling metal in the garage, nearly finished my seat supports - another bit that turned out quite fiddly but coming on good now, just some holes to drill for lightening (read: looks) :)

  9. Working away in the yard this morning. No bosses about so fitted some evotech levers, took the bike upstairs, where there's more space for changing the rear shock / fit ride height adjuster and also started making an A frame for suspending the bike while dropping the swing arm down. I love working on the bike especially while getting paid for it! :)

  10. Just fitted HM Quick Shifter to the 848 that I got off @arthurbikemad
    Took a couple of hours to fit; but wanted to make sure I plumbed it in the right place along side the Nemesis traction control.
    Still on stock settings; may have a dabble at the weekend to set on the side of caution. better download the instructions I suppose...
    First run out on 27 at Donny with NL

    Oh, just remembered; it took two hours as I also swapped out the rear subframe...

  15. Thanks to advice from the forum, just got off the phone with Bengo to sort the track day insurance for Cartagena. Easy to understand process and they volunteered a 10% discount code. Paid FE the balance for Cartagena and confirmed the pickup date of 7th March. Spoke to Sarah at Ducati UK and organised tickets for the BSB at Brands in April and October and spoke to a lovely lady at Silverstone about tickets for the Moto GP in August. I might be a lot poorer financially but I've got a huge silly grin on my face. With ACDC in May and UK track days still to plan, it's shaping up to be a great year. Andy
