Chch Wednesday Maintenance Evenings

[phoenixgtr]

We have the opportunity to hold basic maintenance evenings in a fully equiped workshop. We ran these for the first time last year and they we're well received. This is a good chance to learn a bit about the mechanics of bikes and the maintenance of them. If you have something specific that you need done on your bike, but don't want to tackle it yourself then bring it along. If you post up on here beforehand we can be prepared on the night.

These really are just an excuse for us to get together and have few beers (or bourbons), so we usually head to the pub afterwards.

Where: Gloucester Motor Company
Cnr Gloucester Street & Fitzgerald Avenue

When: From 6pm each Wednesday (we usually give up and head to the pub (either The Twisted Hop, Poplar Lane or the Speights Ale House, Bealey Ave) around 8pm).

A huge thanks to Wayne (Wofman) for letting us use his workshop for these!!

[laRIKin]

When: From 6pm eash Wednesday (we usually give up and head to the pub (The Twisted Hop, Poplar Lane) around 8pm).

Like I said in the other thread can we try somewhere else this year?
Like where the beer is not so dear and we can sit inside for a change?

[McWild]

Second post!
Bugger that I missed out on the first one.

I don't know if I should come to these - my bike is pretty bulletproof.

[KiwiPhoenix]

I'm definitely interested, even though I don't have a bike, would you mind if I tagged along?

[phoenixgtr]

Lemans - make a suggestion

McWild - maybe if you were shooting it with plastic ball bearings

KiwiPhoenix - sure you can come. The more the merrier

[KiwiPhoenix]

Cheers, now just have to tell my darling fiancee! :yes: I will be there about 6.15pm (by the time DF gets home!) and I leave..

[stevewederell]

Man I could have really done with this a week ago when I was pulling the brakes apart. Maybe I can bring it along when the last set of seals arrive in case someone hasn't seen or dealt with it before...:woohoo:

[laRIKin]

Lemans - make a suggestion

Well I'm open to suggestion's as well.

It's a nice place but, lets face it the prices are not cheap there.
And we stand outside in the cold.
I think there has to be a better place.
At least a place we can stand inside.

[Retroqueen]

Speight's ale house in Bealey Ave does that work??

[Retroqueen]

Speight's ale house in Bealey Ave does that work??

Plenty of parking, not too far from the garage, not madly over priced and for those who want a bar snack there's that as well. :woohoo::woohoo: works for me

[laRIKin]

Speight's ale house in Bealey Ave does that work??

Now that is a top idea.
And better than mine.
We go to Pomeroys just up the road for our RAT meetings.
Not the cheapest and parking could be a problem, if you want keep an eye on your bike.

[fireliv]

Anywhere suits me fine!

[Dave-]

+1 for speights ale house and twisted hop.

and responsible drinking.

[phoenixgtr]

Hey no reason why we have to go to the same pub every week! Speights Ale House is all good


(I love how the whole conversation on this thread so far is "which pub should we go to")

[Dave-]

(I love how the whole conversation on this thread so far is "which pub should we go to")

I think it's an important topic...

[Mully Clown]

Speights on Bealey has a decentish loyalty scheme as well.


LOYALTY POINTS can be redeemed at any time. You get 50 cents off Bealey’s house wine and tap beer. For every $1.00 spent, you get one point. Every 10 points is worth a redeemable $1.00 in food at Bealey’s Restaurant. It doesn’t take long to start reaping the rewards. We look forward to seeing you soon and hope in the future you enjoy our Southern Hospitality.

/me cuddles No.4 loyakty card...sweet sweet monteiths golden

[Shadows]

When: From 6pm eash Wednesday

Jeesh it shounds like your pished already

[Gareth123]

Osheas on Marshland rd would suit me fine. I live about 5 mins walk away. I'm easy though. My girlfriend can confirm that;)

[rosie631]

Speight's ale house in Bealey Ave does that work??

I'll second that.

[KiwiPhoenix]

Have car will travel, don't care where we go as long as it's a pub! :lol:

[The Lone Rider]

Hey any chance of doing a chain and sprockets on my bike? I have an idea on how to do it but would prefer a more informed watchful eye present.

Waiting on parts at the moment though.

[phoenixgtr]

We did a chain on Liv's bandit last year so I don't see why not. I've also changed sprockets before. The front ones can be difficult but should be doable.

[McWild]

I would appreciate it to the tune of beer (so really, really appreciate it) if someone tomorrow could give my powervalve a look or a listen. I think I may have damaged it at Ruapuna on Saturday as the engine has been feelinng very very odd since then. Not sure if it is even the powervalve mind, but any help would be appreciated.
It could just be that I'm running Shell 91 atm instead of Mobil 91 like usual, as I had to fill up asap after Ruapuna. But yeah. Please please please.

[The Lone Rider]

We did a chain on Liv's bandit last year so I don't see why not. I've also changed sprockets before. The front ones can be difficult but should be doable.

Sweet - saves me labour cost at shop :banana:.

Just got prices on chain and front sprocket.. just waiting on rear. Should have parts end of this week.

Maybe do next Wednesday? I'll be working mornings so I'm free to come.

[JMemonic]

Will be working this week and next :(

[rosie631]

Not sure if I can make it tonight either. Definiteley next week tho

[SDU]

Hey no reason why we have to go to the same pub every week! Speights Ale House is all good


(I love how the whole conversation on this thread so far is "which pub should we go to")

What you mean there was another reason:drinkup:

[Flip]

I'm stuck at work supervising an engineering job. Might just pop in if its not too late.

P_

[Dave-]

I've got a staff meeting at 6:15 till about 7

ill be late.

[fireliv]

Wont be there... no bike!

[Gareth123]

Wont be there... no bike!

I could lend you mine. Provided you do an oil change on it. Oil supplied of course.

[fireliv]

I could lend you mine. Provided you do an oil change on it. Oil supplied of course.

LOL I would have done that for ya no probs! But I dont have any mode of transport to get your bike!!! U'll just have to try and get along sometime!

[Spuds1234]

I was asleep. Im not ashamed to admit it.

Fast asleep by 7 and only just woke up.

That and I dont have a bike with rego or wof at the moment.

[Transalper]

....That and I dont have a bike with rego or wof at the moment.lol, I got the Reg and WOF but no bike... (no engine at least).
lol again... my skinny little legs aren't so skinny any more thanks to my current more frequent use of pedal power.

[Spuds1234]

lol, I got the Reg and WOF but no bike... (no engine at least).
lol again... my skinny little legs aren't so skinny any more thanks to my current more frequent use of pedal power.

With our bikes combined.... We could take turns riding.

Not sure how the Katana would fare going off road. Last time I went off road I lost a mirror.

[The Lone Rider]

Couldn't stand waiting until Wednesday, chain and sprockets should be done Monday. Hoping to still show up, so hopefully someone still has some sort of project or job to do?

[rosie631]

I do. Have done my indicators but I have a rattle in my primary that i could do with a hand to sort out. I have the workshop manual.

[KiwiPhoenix]

Great something else to have a looksie at! :yes:

[fireliv]

Will bring the SV in next week, it needs a general check up cos it hasnt been running that much/had much maintenance done in the last 6 months!

[helenoftroy]

lol, I got the Reg and WOF but no bike... (no engine at least).
lol again... my skinny little legs aren't so skinny any more thanks to my current more frequent use of pedal power.
Its been a long time to be bikeless Carl!!:crybaby:
Much longer?

Will bring the SV in next week, it needs a general check up cos it hasnt been running that much/had much maintenance done in the last 6 months!
:woohoo:Awesome!! will be there with bells on to see the new machine!!

Geez Im sure to find something needs doing on the ever expanding stable!:wari:

....and I know you lot need all the encouragement you can get to stop work and start drinking!! :whistle:

[phoenixgtr]

....and I know you lot need all the encouragement you can get to stop work and start drinking!! :whistle:

Actually they did this week. We we're standing around gas bagging at Waynes when suddenly we thought "why aren't we at the pub yet?"

[Dave-]

I want to adjust my gear lever, bleed my front brakes and lube the throttle assembly and cables.

[McWild]

I want Hell to freeze over so my bike will never have any more problems. Can anyone help with this?

[Mikkel]

I want Hell to freeze over so my bike will never have any more problems. Can anyone help with this?

I'm cool - but that might be pushing it :cool:

[Gareth123]

I want Hell to freeze over so my bike will never have any more problems. Can anyone help with this?

I know some guys who work for Climatech, they're pretty good with air conditioning. I'll have a chat to them and see what they can do for you.:lol:

[Transalper]

Its been a long time to be bikeless Carl!!:crybaby:
Much longer?...
Spoke to the man today and asked that we start making some progress on it as I might like to be on it for Queens Birthday weekend Adventures.

[stevewederell]

If we get short of something to do I can bring my crash bungs along and throw them on...they're big and ugly, but hey, better than sliding on the engine eh?!:beer:

[McWild]

Powervalve being worked on atm, it will be a bit slower as a result but this should extend its lifetime by a fair bit. I SHOULD have it by Wednesday, but I wouldn't hold my breath, due to it being a complicated process.
Might be able to turn up on my scooter though. We could go through the removal of a front brake disc, as I need to check out the pads.

Also, if anybody is looking at new gear or anything else (even a bike), from Avon City Suzuki (by Sockburn roundabout, top guys by the way) I have a voucher for $493 that needs using, and I'm willing to trade however much you need from it for cash, with a 5%-10% discount for you. PM me if you think this appeals to you.

[fireliv]

Well the new bike needs its indicator pulled apart because it sticks when you push it left.

If I get oil we can do an oil change too and at some point the brakes are going to need to be blead. Simple things to learn.

[JMemonic]

Grab a new filter if you are doing an oil change as well, well worth while, I am looking foreward to seeing the new beastie but work demands that I be there :(.

[fireliv]

[helenoftroy]

[SMOKEU]

A Harringtons pub would be much better to end the night off rather than the Speights ale house, everyone knows that Speights is overpriced mass produced crap.

[Mr Triple]

Should be there tomorrow night to have a look at Fireliv's new ride :yes: Even a beer will go down well, and I don't mind where we go. ;)

[SpeedMonger]

Will try to make it but may not be on bike - but I guess that really doesn't matter now eh?

[Dave-]

A Harringtons pub would be much better to end the night off rather than the Speights ale house, everyone knows that Speights is overpriced mass produced crap.

yeah but it doesnt have potato skins with cheese and ham...

come to think of it I vote we head to tower junction speights ale house, cause they have the wedges, cheese and bacon and OMG it is so good.

[KiwiPhoenix]

MMMmmmmmm!! god you're making me hungry and I've just finished my brekkie!!

Have car will travel, don't mind where we go as long as it has wedges! ;)

[McWild]

Yeah because Harrington's is quality.

Just how much were you planning on drinking anyway?

[KiwiPhoenix]

Was good to see everyone there last night especially since the weather was crap! Wedges were great though!

Nice to meet you Liv & of course you Helen (again)

[stevewederell]

Ironically I couldn't get cos I took the last brake caliper off but no time to replace the seals and go through the rest of the drama and get down to the pub, I mean workshop.

Next time all going well:hug:

[SDU]

Was good to get along for a change not very often I get along to say Hi.

[helenoftroy]

McWilds "Ducati" moment was priceless!!

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

[phoenixgtr]

Poor widdle boy was scared of the big noisy bike!! :o

Hehe. He's never gonna live that one down

[McWild]

It was loud ok!!!

[jim.cox]

It was loud ok!!!

What was that you said?

Sorry, you'll have to speak up

I'm a little deaf

:)

[KiwiPhoenix]

The best bit was when I was following you guys to the "workshop" and as you were pulling away from the lights, I could hear the roar of Helen's Ducati and then McWild's :scooter:

(must not laugh, at least he has a bike! :scooter:)

[hayd3n]

So anyone doing any maintaining tomorrow? More lovely weather on the way for tomorrow by the look of it. So I might pike out yet again. But if anyone is doing any work on their bike I would be interested in coming along for a look and give a hand.

[Dave-]

i need to adjust my gear selector

and talk to the guy who fixed my bike about the fuel tap falling off...

[McWild]

We could also work on fast food etiquette near bikes eh?

[phoenixgtr]

Liv wants to adjust her chain...not very exciting and will take all of 5 mins but it's something

[gammaguy]

ill see yez all on the 30 september 2009.

i work on bikes for a living,so youll understand i dont really want to work on 'em in my spare time.unless they are:

TWO STROKES


FAST
FUN
and most importantly.....
MINE!:whistle:

happy maintaining all:calm:

[Flip]

Might drop in if I can get out of work in time.

Don't need anything fixed on the scooter at the moment. It's actually quite reilyable.

Just posted my form off to the Brass, don't know exactly what my plans are and they change with the forcast, but if anybody is interested..... Probably going to Oamaru on Friday after work then to the rally Sat. Back Sunday via Hast if the weather is fine or just up the main road if it is not.

I'm sure McWilds bike will need working on. There's always something wrong with it :lol:

[Wet]

I am considering replacing my existing fork springs with some progressive springs and a heavier weight oil. I would like some help in, firstly any info about where they can be purchased(locally if possible), cost and also is it worth replacing the internal valves?

Cheers

Have checked Racetech and Progressive Sites for info.

[McWild]

I'm sure McWilds bike will need working on. There's always something wrong with it :lol:

Actually everything seems to be fine at the moment. Um except I think my reserve tank line may be blocked. Maybe.
Other than that it should all be fine.

But then we still have 3 hours 11 minutes, right?

[phoenixgtr]

Well I won't be along tonight. I've got swine flu (a.k.a. a cold) so I'm being confined to the indoors

[rosie631]

I won't be there tonight. Too cold and wet. Being a wuss..

[Brownstoo]

So what's the dealio with these? I'm kinda newish round here an I got a cheapish old bike that I knew would need a bit o' work, and it'd be pretty sweet if someone who knows what they're doing could have a quick look and point me in the right direction?

[JMemonic]

Easy the address is in the first post, turn up meet the folks and go from there :).

What sort of things do you want to work on ?

[The Lone Rider]

Hey anyone got projects for this Wednesday night? Hoping to be there, bringing a friend to.

[Mr Triple]

Haven't been to one this year, don't think I'll get there this week either.:weep:

[Brownstoo]

What sort of things do you want to work on ?

All sorts! Just wanted someone with a bit of bike experience to have a bit of a look and see what's going on.
Got the carbs n radiator off and I prob won't get round to putting it back together till the weekend tho.

[stevewederell]

I'll bring my massive "planet sized" crash bungs to throw on if things are looking a little boring:zzzz:

[gammaguy]

Its just one of those things. The belts last for ages unless they get stoned. Swaped the last one out myself which was a relatively easy job.

ya know what Bob Dylan said dude:

everyone must get stoned.:eek5:

maybe he rode a harley?:whistle:

[stevewederell]

Ah ha, another plan...I'm going to replace the radiator fluid in preparation for winter and the Brass Monkey so we can do that as well. Any types/brands I should get or avoid??

[KiwiPhoenix]

You sound like Dr Evil, Mr Steve! <_<

[wofman]

on thursday 21 may street and sport are having a sale
so if you are heading to the brass monkey drop in to
the shop on manchester st the shop will be open till 7pm
so there is time to get some warm riding gear, or hot grips
that you can fit on the next wednessday night

What the hell do people really think Wednesday nights are for.:spanking:


Don't have anything we can do this week. But I will come along anyway to see what you're up to and say hi.

Changing your belt would eat in to the drinking time to much.
Unless we took it to the pub with us.:msn-wink:


I'll just come along and look pretty!! :cool:

And you do that so well sweetie.

[KiwiPhoenix]

And you do that so well sweetie.

Why thank you! :o

[phoenixgtr]

Hmmm...so I picked up a chunk of metal in my rear tyre today. It's looking a little sad and deflated. Looks like a new tyre is on the cards

[KiwiPhoenix]

Ouch!

*can't think of anything witty and I need to increase the character count*

[McWild]

Well I was going to make a thread, but instead I'll just hijack this thread...

I am now the proud owner of a 1978 YB100 bucket race bike!

Stripped right down, with a four speed gear box, necessity to premix two stroke oil, and an ear shattering exhaust, this is the bucket that will end all other buckets. If you can even call them buckets.
Too intensely powerful to even idle without constant revving, this is the bucket you can expect to see and smell roaring past you on the racetrack, leaving all you wusses on FXR150s crying for the sweet satisfaction of a two stroke.

Have fun trying to sleep tonight, bucketaroos and bucketeers...
The YZF-B1 is the stuff of nightmares.

[Emlyn]

need to do:

lube throttle cable

change coolant

And I have the sticky throttle issue.. and oil and filter for a change.... :)

Do my best not to eat into 'beer o'clock' though! :)

[Mr Triple]

I still plan on being there so Wofman can do a wof for my Tiger:niceone: I'll even shout you a beer for that wofman :msn-wink:


Emlyn is coming along and she would like to do a oil and filter change with some help of course.
And she has a sticky throttle that needs a look see.

So we could have a busy night, I'll try and get in there as early as I can.:niceone:

[stevewederell]

Haha you were too fast for me:niceone:

Lol... that will be my sticky "throttle" issue.. running at high revs, the bike and I !! lol :P

[Mr Triple]

That will be it.. hopefully no cruse control for you after Wednesday.:bleh:

:woohoo:the McWild has been bitten by this highly addictive racing bug!!

Awesomely awesome!!will your wee machine be ready for the next meet on
the 30th May?(cams meet)

Buddy!have you not seen the wickedly stupid grin I have on my face every second Im on the track?Bring it on whippersnapper!!:nya:

Geez when I tell Casualty(Sam)he'll be Green with envy!!:devil2:

[McWild]

Probably won't be able to do any actual racing til mid June. Life is demanding :doh:
As such I'm not even free to get it home til Friday, but when I do you'll all be heaing about it!

...probably so that I beg for spare trailer spots lol.

Oh and pm me your address for the party thing a ma thing. Please. :eek:

[stevewederell]

My baby was tired from the trek to work today and needed a rest - see below

[McWild]

My baby was tired from the trek to work today and needed a rest - see below

I cringed hard... that sucks dude. What's the damage?

[KiwiPhoenix]

Ouch!

So obviously the training wheels didn't work!!

What happened?? Hope you manage to get it fixed ok!

[Mr Triple]

My baby was tired from the trek to work today and needed a rest - see below


Bugger Steve hopefully not too much damage, so what happened.:nono:

[stevewederell]

I nearly cried, but after inspection hardly any damage!!

There are a few scratches on speedo and tiny one on pack rack. She didn't go all the way down so no road (or car park) test performed.

Kind of a catch 22, if I hadn't parked so close to wall, she would have gone right over, but if I had parked further away perhaps the tarmac would have been more solid...I did think perhaps the gods were either testing me or saying I should stay home...:bleh:I'm still going :msn-wink:

[McWild]

Forgive me if I'm not getting something, but how did it actually fall over? Wouldn't the side stand have kept it up?

[stevewederell]

LOL, the side stand didn't fail, the tarmac underneath however failed, buckled and now there is a crater where the side stand was sitting. :doh:

[Shadows]

Forgive me if I'm not getting something, but how did it actually fall over? Wouldn't the side stand have kept it up?

Not when the asphalt gives way. Sometimes it's pretty thin and doesn't take much to punch a hole in it. I know somebody whose bike came close to being written off as a result of that happening (brand new Speed Triple back when they were the latest thing and parts were expensive to come by).

[McWild]

Ooh dear, didn't think of it like that... that is very far from good...

[KiwiPhoenix]

LOL, the side stand didn't fail, the tarmac underneath however failed, buckled and now there is a crater where the side stand was sitting. :doh:

Clearly the bike was too hot for the tarmac to handle! :msn-wink:

Glad that there isn't too much damage.

[stevewederell]

I think the rain got in at the edge and attacked from underneath:spanking:

[Emlyn]

My baby was tired from the trek to work today and needed a rest - see below

That sucks! Please there was minimal damage and you can still pass your warrant! :)

[KiwiPhoenix]

I think the rain got in at the edge and attacked from underneath:spanking:

Bad tarmac, that was very naughty! :spanking:

:laugh:

Haha Steve.. pretty sure you just told me your whimping out yourself!! We will see who is in need of the pills ;):bleh: Not often you hear of women taking pills for hardening!!! lol :niceone:

[rosie631]

its going to be cold and wet....very cold and wet...

Think you're right. Will see what weather is like tonight. I will getting my dose of HTFU at the Brass. Don't really want a preview lol

[phoenixgtr]

LOL, the side stand didn't fail, the tarmac underneath however failed, buckled and now there is a crater where the side stand was sitting. :doh:

Reminds me of this one time, in Wanaka. We we're doing a tour of the south island in the middle of summer. In Wanaka it was unbearably hot (esp. in leathers). We pulled up and I put my bike on it's sidestand and jumped off. The stand literally started sinking into the road and the bike started to topple over. Luckily I was still standing next to it so I dived under it. Hardly a scratch on it, but it was close!!

By the way, the guys at Pitlane fixed my puncture for $20 so no new tyre for me. Cheers guys

[KiwiPhoenix]

Some of us are true experts at the standing around....being bossy.....chatting.....then heading everyone in the direction of the pub lol:msn-wink:

[McWild]

Some average pics of the Yamahard.

[Emlyn]

That looks like a few 'wednesdays' worth of work there McWild! :):bleh:

[Gareth123]

Is that seat actually comfortable?

[McWild]

I'm not really sure it counts as a seat to be honest.

[helenoftroy]

Is that seat actually comfortable?
Thats wot I was thinking.....ouch!:doh:

but hey!!McWild will be crouched and streamlined with the tank for increased aerodynamics as he desperately tries to keep up with the FXRs:laugh:

Who needs a seat,this is racing!!!:devil2:

[KiwiPhoenix]

That looks like a few 'wednesdays' worth of work there McWild! :):bleh:

I agree! Now as said before (by me anyways) I'm good at holding a light!

[Mr Triple]

I agree! Now as said before (by me anyways) I'm good at holding a light!

Yes you do that very well to KP and like Em said McWild got some work to do. Let see you find the header tank on that!!:bleh:

[McWild]

To be honest it doesn't really need any work to it. Just got to get used to draining the bowl after racing so that the oil/fuel mixture doesn't harden in the cylinder, apply some chain lube, and once I can afford it fit a bigger carb.

The photos make it look worse than it is, it's actually in pretty top nick, and runs really well.

So you are going to do two Brass Monkeys.
Keep safe because the weather looks like it could be crap.

[McWild]

Omg... so tired... just spent an hour running up and down the street trying to start the damn thing, hasn't happened...
Anyone want to come round and share in the fun? It's character building!

[_Shrek_]

hey wolfman cya wed, will get Mrs S to drop off my new tyre & tube so I don't have to carry them over, & was thinking of using tyre levers to show thoses who may want to know how or if time is short the machine lol

[Emlyn]

I will be in.. with my oil and filter.. for some expert assistance in getting my filter out from amongst my pipes! :) and any other pointers.. like learning about Shreks tyre.. awesome :)

[McWild]

Ok so it runs really well when I can start the bloody thing hahaha.

It was only because it hadn't been started for over a week, same thing with my RG last night it ran like a right dog til it had cleared the crap from it's system.

I did manage to get it started eventually and went for a hoon round the local suburbs. Got more than a few dodgy looks from passers by haha, race numbers front and back, super loud exhaust, no plate, lights or indicators.
Good fun!

Plus I was doing it by myself (no one pushing) so that didn't help matters.

Good workout though. Did more running today than I have all month. All my bikes must have one thing in common: they must be character building. This fits the bill nicely.

[stevewederell]

So you are going to do two Brass Monkeys.

:Offtopic: - Sorry

Shit was it ever. Actually the ride down to Inverveges was pretty good, well untill I headed over the hill into Dunners. Felt like someone was putting glass bottles into a large tree mulching machine and spitting it back at me. Couldn't see with visor up or down :no:

One sign said "Open" the other "Snow". 20kms prior I had also switching my dodgy fuel system onto "R" for really better make it over the hill before run outta gas.

When I pulled in my face and body couldn't move. Roads pretty good all in all.

Have a groovy Wed' night, have one for me and I'll do the same for all of you!:chase:

Nice bike. Is it YB100 or 125? Looks very similar to mine. Will try and make it this Wednesday, since my bike is finally out from Canterbury Rides.

[Gareth123]

I need a mechanic who can replace some gaskets for me. Only problem is The bike shops I've rung don't have listings for GL145's anymore so the gasket needs to be made.

I'd do it but I'm a lazy prick who prefers to open my wallet. Plus I never was one of those kids who liked to put things back together, only pull them apart.

Can any of you kind folk reccommend someone for me?

Thanks heaps

[laRIKin]

Try here they will make anything you want.

So would these guys pull the bike to bits and put the gasket in, or just make the gasket?

[Gareth123]

Ok so I invested some time into reading the website. They will only make one. Now who is a good mechanic? McWild your bike was in and out of the shop a lot. Who was your mechanic? I seem to remember a few people thought quite highly of him
