 Posted: 17:51 - 02 Apr 2015 Post subject: Plans for the weekend? |
 |
|
This weekend I plan to strip my bike down and cut/weld the fuel tank for more capacity, make some disc bobbins to shut up my rattly discs and add some bits to my centre-stand to lift the rear wheel slightly higher so it doesn't touch the road if the surface is a bit uneven.
So, chilling out in the workshop. What about you? ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

I was hoping to do a bunch of bits on the divvy tomorrow but the parts haven't arrived So that's the swingarm and rear wheel bearings plus the front forks rebuild off of the list until next time I have a chance.
Still, I plan to change over the rear caliper to an "as new" one I have at home. Also to try and seal my leaky exhaust up eventually. Also a new rear tyre.
All in aid of getting it through it's MOT next month! ____________________ I am a bellend, I am a man of constant sorrow, I am a gummy bear, I am a rock. |

Planning on ripping the old, shitty carpet (one on top of another, and gawd knows how long they've both been there) out of the garage, which means shifting everything out. That's going to be no mean feat in itself. I have a feeling the floor might be a bit of a state underneath
Oh, how I want my bike back! Then I can just run away from it all  ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Hope you guys have a good one. I haven't seen a forecast recently, but it's a BH; what could possibly go wrong?  ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

To sort of quote Pepperami....Hmmmm? The Bank Holiday weekend? ...(thinks?) let me see...
Friday = working!
Saturday = car MOT
Sunday = relaxing, maybe out on the bike...
Monday = Working!
Then Joy of joys, Tuesday I`m back to work for the week...
Someone made an error and let lots of people have time off at the same time, then also some of them are off long term sick too. So I imagine my days to be crammed full of patients to visit...  ____________________ Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter won't mind - Dr. Seuss |

Zed is now all back together and sounding like a tractor - not sure if I've eliminated so many rattles that it's now sounding like it should
So I'm headed from the South-West to Bury St Edmunds on her this weekend (kill or cure!!) and then hopefully meet up with one or two others headed to the Southend Shakedown. ____________________ Make mine a Corona. |

Fri = Was supposed to be fixing someones computer, but I have sniffles + his wife is ill and can't risk it. So in the garage to finally fit my homebodged metal supports to ST topbox bracket and several refinements over the last couple of weeks.
Also going to try and fettle SV's gear lever to get better fit for boots.
Sat = Testing out ST (with new brackets, mudguard extender and rad grill), seeing if gear lever height is right for new boots. Hooning down to the olds near Bognor.
Sun = Back to mow lawn, trim hedge, Ronseal fence, clean bike. I suspect 1 out of that list to be achieved.
Mon = Off to hookup with BCF South East Bummer Command somewhere round Epping Forest and head to Saarrfffend for the Shakedown
Have a good one all! |
