Hmmm, I may well be there... but not going to guarantee it, have been away from home a fair bit this week, and I think the kids may have forgotten who I am.

Going to spend most of tomorrow (Friday) riding, as nobody home but me - will definitely pop in, but I promise nothing!

Oh, did I mention J, I'll be riding most of tomorrow?

Might pop in and see ya at work! Muhahaha...

Sweet, we can both sit outside the gates of J's workplace and look like no-good bikers out to corrupt innocent students and propagate the flow of illicit and quite probably illegal substances amongst the learning youth of south Auckland!

Actually, there's probably enough of that goes on in the classroom... hmmm...

Well another Spanner night has been done ... I think it was more of a multi-meter night! Installing a Steelmate motorcycle alarm into a CBR250 and learning a heap in the process.

Ixion and Bass were handling it like pros and old hands as they systematically identified and then disavowed any responsibility for the final product!

Anyhow, after much mutterings, diagram consultations and vampire clips - we got the bugger to work and installed! Final fairing mounting was a proverbial pain in the arse, but with Donor's laser-like ability to force anything into compliance the job was done.

Tried to get the two fiddy boys to come on a the nice group ride today, but seems it was too short notice for them! Never mind, I'm sure the weather out to Kaiaua will be courtesy of Maverick's weather-genie!

Now, will get some piccies posted up once I get some time...

I'm struggling with 'laser like' force.

Good attitude, lacks execution. Could do better.

Yes a fantastic spanner night mission accomplished!! Like to thank Ixion and Bass for their extensive electrical knowledge and detailed electrical map drawing!, Gijoe and donor for all their hard work and support this wouldn't have happend without you guys!! Like to thank breakaway for the ride to and from Gijoe's and his patients i know it did take along time mate!! Thanks Gijoe for the food and beverage that was great and much appreciated.

Spanner night is definately a great evening to spend learning new things meeting new people or just being a genuine lazy bum!

Will be there next week too

Donor atleast we got to bring the sledge hammer and wood out! couldn't believe the smile on your face when you saw these peices of apparatus.

thanks again guys.

P.s Breakaway let me know when your heading out next week i'll ride along with you again, was great fun just watch out for the idiotic cage drivers opening their doors on you.

No did'nt go on the 250 ride today spent sometime insulating some of the wires from spanner nights escapade.

worked out good though i would suggest that when you do your bike, you do the insulation before putting the front ferring back on it will make you life alot easier.

And yes a longer ride would be good maybe we can con donor and gijoe for a cruise around mission bay or something thats alway a nice enjoyable ride on a good day!!
