lol, cheers Trev yeah both me and the wife feeling better. My pinball/diner/garage is the painted a room, though it did take about a week with a bunch of coats - fair warning; it’s not a time to order anything from homebase, they seem to be swamped!
Hope your all keeping well
Badger-Roy sounds like you have put the time to good use, what a great what to spend the time. Look forward to the pics or perhaps seeing it on the next ride out...... some time in the distance future....
Looking cool, nice bike.Originally Posted by BB
If I get really bored iv an old Peugeot Speedfight 50cc 2stroke I can play with that I was given last week by a neighbour, even got mot on it, may be worth a strip down and rebuild lol.
On the Bergman I stripped brakes today as planned and strangely it actually all went to plan, which with hindsight “should” have given me warning on what was about to come when I went on to change the fluids, brake fluid change went well, transmission oil even better, then on to engine oil, I went to undo the sump plug only to find some twonk in the past (not me I hasten to add) has completely stripped the threads out of the sump then glued the sump plug back in (yes glued). Anyway it’s now loaded in the van and it’s of to the garage tomorrow morning for the sump to be helicoiled and then MOTed so fingers, toes, legs and nuts crossed that it passes.

Close, remove a decade and turn the beard in to a glorious tache.
That's the roundabout in Calne where the photographer sets up? Bet that exhaust sounds awesome.

Too late for this one but you can buy oversized plugs, recutting the thread to a bigger size at home is not too hard. If I was keeping something I'd see it as more trustworthy than a helicoil.
I have to collect some crap from work today so you'll hear me come past this afternoon.
I try and keep it trimmed
It is indeed and nothing beats the sound of an old Brit single
Cept maybe an Indian onenothing beats the sound of an old Brit single
Glued? Well, I suppose it kept it in and stopped any leaks!
Yep glue, I suspect it was a type of resin as a gentle tap with the toffee hammer and it cracked clean away.Glued? Well, I suppose it kept it in and stopped any leaks!
