the what have you done today thread

Shower on the cheap too.

 

Currently trying to figure out how Im going to strap two 2 tonne car ramps and a complete car exhaust system to the back of my scooter.

 

Ive decided not to risk it because knowing my luck Id get tugged, Im just going to take a taxi when I go to the car next. £10 taxi fare is better than getting hassled by plod.

 

Collected my car today with the assistance of some lads from work after getting a tip off from a mate who works in the bodyshop next to the garage that the garage were hooning about in my car.. Decided to take my car to a garage to have the exhaust fitted only for it to come out with less of an exhaust than it had before a nice scratch down the passenger rear side and the interior absolutely filthy with 200 miles extra on the clock and fuel light on

 

Picked up some LED bulbs to go all round on the Kymco. The brake light has stopped working so I'll change them all while im at work tomorrow. I'll probably have to add resistors in on the indicators but it doesn't look too fiddly of a job. I need to get the belt and rollers changed along with a service and some brake pads before I ride it to Nottingham next month too but my impact gun has had it and I rarely get enough time off to do it myself. Think Ill have to find a mechanic to do it Ill need to get my top box fitted too but I cant find the base plate

 

Just picked up another Agility for some parts that I need for mine, £150 and a half mile push home. Adding up the prices of parts that I need on eBay, Ive just saved myself £200

 

Tyre pressures? Rear shock leaked?

 

Rushed off my feet with this new job in the last few weeks; I'm setting up a completely new Transport Operation here in the UK for a company based in Mumbai.
And when I say completely setting it up, I mean completely.
They had no infrastructure here at all, nothing.
Now we have land, no buildings on it, but we have some land, trucks and trailers will be ready by the end of next week, contracts are in place with a couple of BIG market players and are kicking off in 2 weeks time.
I've done everything including spending their huge sums of money, and if it all goes Pete Tong, it's all my fault!
And I can't hide for 2 reasons:
1: I'm heading up the transport
2: The directors have already been to my house for meetings!

 

Kinda sorta had my first smash today bike a complete write off so having to get the £150 Agility city OTR now for work ordered all the bits Ill need to service it and get it safe to ride again and put insurance on it @ £290 a year TPO

 

Sorry to hear that mate. Did you get hurt?

 

not really just some bruising could have been worse if I wasn't wearing my full gear

 

and there is a prime example of why you wear the right stuff all the time, even in this heat!

 

All the gear all the time even for the shortest of trips! Id rather turn up sweaty and smelly than to never turn up at all. The zip broke on my jacket so I'll need a new one and my helmet needs to be replaced but they both did their job.
