Catching up with Biggus today.. good to see you again mate.
But also whilst travelling back on the M25...having our prayers answered.
White van man driving like a loony and just wishing we had a blue light in the car when all of a sudden the Blue RS Focus driving along side us suddenley shots of after said van... With blue lights flashing.. Fantastic. Seeing the arsehole pulled over.. Priceless. undertaking and weaving in and out of traffic at 90mph+ should be at least dangerous driving.  |

Ta. The plastic pig is now sans plastic in my garage ready to do the swap (save for removal of the exhaust, alternator and cooling system drain). Job for another day. Tomorrow perhaps.
Been quite organised and put the fairing screws, bolts, push rivets etc into labelled jars pertaining to where they came from. Anyone who's ever got a pan naked will concur that Honda were clearly under orders to use as many different types/lengths of fastner as possible on the Pan.

Well done mate!!! just don't forget to check the gear selector before setting out on a test ride otherwise you may get stuck in third gear again!!!

ah yes... I remember the replacement box the centering spring wasn't in the right place, and I ended up with the back end of the bike right up in the air so I could take the back of the gear box off without losing all the oil or having to remove the engine... and Andgel dropped a spanner in my eye

Congrats Barry. Seems quite a few people are taking an interest in the "Cruddy Kwak!" Definitely something to be proud of! |

Really not that great (Mig needs some serious TLC...), but it's just to get an MoT on it and test ride it to see if the new mill is good.
