Hi all, as Dawn is now back on her feet ( sort of ) and that Xmas etc is out of the way, thought I'd put on a workshop day
Saturday 19th January from 12 onwards
where.... my shed....... 29 Mistletoe Drive, Huntingdale if ya get lost 0434 545006
what to bring........sense of humour and some coins for sausage sizzle, drinks, beer etc
get to take Lefty's new bike for a test ride, poke fun at Davey Sprocket whilst having a quiet ale

may even get some work done on a bike or 2.

Don't know about test rides, but the beer and sausage sounds good

Mine have done 40000km but I expect another 100000km out of them as I don't wait for Dr's or should I say Dr's don't ride where I ride

I suspect that if you are changing the discs then you should change out the disc retaining bolts, if you are just doing the pads then no worries about bolts.
looks like there will be a bit done this weekend, my list
. new sticker kit,new chains and sprockets, refit exhaust etc on the old DRZ
. refit Safari tank,rack etc to new DRZ.
. fit power supply to handlebars on GS1400 ( well has got an X on the end )
Tom is giving lessons on the new club coffee machine

that arrived in the shed tonight
Ewen is doing his front forks.
Lefty is cooking the BBQ
Everyone else is giving unwanted advice

Hey Serpy (Bolton)
I am sure you will be welcome, even if no-one else replied to you
