Went out on the B-King to get a tyre but mates shop was shut.
Started the Bandit, it ran on 3, I stuck an old plug in and it was back on 4.
Needs a good run but there's no tax / rego on it at the moment.
Pottered about in the shed just doing tyre pressures and lubeing chains.

Rego here is similar to your road tax.
Our rego includes basic third party insurance so anyone with a licence can ride anything with tax,
although it only covers personal injuries not property.
If you register a bike as a single seat vehicle (my Busa and B-King are) you get half price road tax !

A much needed spit and polish, hasn't had one in months... need to work out the source of a new oil leak so I had to get the motor degreased. I'm hopeful it was just the cam chain tensioner bolts were just a smidge looser than I like them... we'll see!   |

BUGGERATION !!
This tube bending lark is harder than it looks when you're trying multiple bends. The major bend at the back of the seat subframe came out good, the kink inward on the first side went well.
The other side ?
Close but it is wrong, only a couple of mm out, but wrong.
And I can see it.

O dear, the perils of surfing Fleabay when you're still doing the night before. Found a full Ti Akrapovic system for a GSXR1100wt that would be perfect for my little project. I don't know what the F*** happened but apparently it's now on it's way to me. "Buy it Now" is a very dangerous button !!!!! Well, the "Full Ti system turned out be "not very Ti". It's all there and no dents but it's stainless................. that hasn't been cleaned in a very long time. It'll need a lot of labour to get it looking decent. We are currently re negotiating the price. What do you think ? |

If you can't get it cheap, fuck it off back to him. As Ken says, "not as described/listed"
