BTW: Slingshot have you sorted out seals yet?

Yeah - good point. (Thanks Sully - I was trying lead Slingshot astray...)

Ill bring my boy Race car and hopefully fit a GP chassis in the back?

If its ok,

Ill let you know ok.

I won't be here Saturday either... Bucket building is Sunday and Monday (with time off for the GP at Kitty's)

Pull finger - drag it round here and get extra hands on it...

Called into Richard's today and I picked up some fork seals that he thought might be the right size, got some fork oil too.

Skunk, what time are you in the shed tomorrow? I'll drop by and say hello.

Is that the one you started bluiding at post #1? Or is that not going yet?

Think about that one Skunk!!!

The CBR is the tailand import that he was riding a while ago.

Notice that he hasn't fucked with that bike, and guess what... .. . IT STILL GOES!!
