Fathers day here today, I ate so much cake.... Amazingly all of that is vegan... The marsipan cake is amazing...
Fitted the multivar kit today It’s totally changed the characteristics of the bike..highly recommended to any one with a 50cc
Wheel bearings for the car arrived today. I planned to put the tomos together again, left the clutch hub at the other workshop.
Scv's whizzing about like a good un.,having much fun playing in traffic...... - sharp difference in riding/centre of gravity,etc.though.coming off of geared since Febuary.
SCV's developed a 'skittering' problem when riding...even straight lining it,nice little Christmas list at fairly reasonable prices knocked up - front & rear shock(s),races,tyres,battery & a replacement starter motor as present one has a maybe mode.. Looks like the Sr's back in service shorterm.
For lunch yesterday - had fast food/courtesy of the local click & collect with the local Sainsbury's with a wrap of shock absorbers.... Dinner,started with a 'starter';followed by a Monoshock main course - desert being an assortment of nuts/bolts & bushes. 'Late' night pre-bed snack - was a pair of NOS /OEM Pivot arms & bearings. .......then the logbook arrived & i may have ordered for a '7'/mine being an F5,ooops - will recce parts no 's at the weekend.. Might be getting the readys together to finance a NHX110 today.
Off for 4 days now Had an old customer contact me, wanted to bring a bike round he bought for his son. Turns out it's a 125 pit bike. It's in a piss poor state as well; no rear caliper at all, the front end is "fully floating", read into that what you like and you'll be about there, the bars are bent, the rear wheel bearings are completely shot, the chain clicks as it goes round, lift the back end and it's as loose as you like with the shock rattling around all over the place. It leaks oil underneath, leaks fuel at the carb, can't get neutral when it's running, the throttle sticks open and the front brake is shite. About half a days work then............................
We've had a bit up north, played absolute havoc with my drivers. Failed deliveries and collections, loads of jobs rolled over, and with Palmer and Harvey going bump as well, people are screaming for their supplies. The last 2 days have not been pleasant at work. Much pressure. Was hoping we'd get some snow down here so I could go play on the XTZ, but alas, no such joy
