To celebrate ....

today I have mainly been working on falco's :)

PhilH's bike now has a sidestand that does not scare folk....

He also has brakes that do not pulse - the semi floating bits now semi float again!

Then Carl's oasis green turned up....

Right hand side clip on fitted, Gabro chip installed and then a motopike clutch slave - i fitted and carl bled it as i was well pissed off with it.. sometimes they work as they should other times..... I will honestly say that having a bleed nipple at the top of the circuit is a VERY good idea :)

Hanna's Oasis was next - new battery and optimate leads fitted - fired up for the first time in a long time... Also changed her front wheel for one with a tyre that matches her rear tyre....

Finally took a gixxer stand and made a bracket so it would fit on my bike - my belly pan is obviously different LOL - and after Mr Dremel had played... its fitted :)

So - am sitting down with a tinnie... which will be followed by more beer... lots more beer as Leeds beat Posh - no big shakes, but annoyinbg any member of the ferguson family is always a good thing :)

i'd love a pint of act-a-twat,,,,,just for the leeds win.

white armmmmmyyyyyyy

I shall join you, after successfully avoiding east anglia's worst torrential downpour in years (wudve been on the a11 at the time) i think that deserves a pint! Sometimes flat batteries can be a good thing..

Yes i will have a nice cocktail with cherries and an umbrella please

I've earnt a beer or two as well. Not been playing with the Falco as I've been lumber jacking in the garden.
Lalandi are b'gers. Look big at a distance, double in size whn you get close, double again when they're down and again when it comes to clearing them away.

the firepit will burn well then....

Sure does, had a couple of barbies off last years "hedge cuttings". Got plenty of fuel getting stored for next year. May have to donate to the village bonfire in November.

...... so the view that spending very little for a bleed nipple at the master cylinder is not worth it when you have the "foolproof" bleed method has been revised then?
