Latest on Lady Penelope...

[nudemetalz]

Well,....

The chain went on today.
Numbers were placed on as was tank badges.
Made up the seat pad and glued that on.
She got an extra polish also.

Then,.....it was her first ride,..up and down the street. Seems to ride okay, not very grunty but I put that down to the new tight motor.

All I have to do now is sort the front-end out, ie bleed the brakes fully and get the wheel spacers on place.
Also have to do some plastic sliders as required.

Looking good for the next meeting (which will also have my XR out there too !!)

[nudemetalz]

Thanks peoples.
She's getting there. Hopefully Nasty will be able to ride her okay.

I am looking forward to seeing how this goes on the track.

It sure does look and sound nice.

[nudemetalz]

Thanks, I am too

Damn she looks good! Love the graphics Chris and she sounds happy too. Team Rules .... when Lady Penelope says "... move over Parker ..." he does not say "Yes M'Lady"

Well, ...next meeting,...on the trailer there will be Lady Penelope, Parker, and the mighty XR250 Supermotardish..
What do we call the XR?
Mr Tracy perhaps?

errr.....excuse me??

[vifferman]

errr.....excuse me??

Ah... sorry - my eyes have come right now.
It was just the visual impact of all that violent violet paintwork.

[nudemetalz]

ah okay....
Was Nasty's idea for the colour. I wanted something MOTOGPish, but my fellow team-partner wanted purple.
Could be worse, could have done the frame and wheels in the same colour !!

Its was your wifes idea... and I agreed as its the original colour of the bike ... also the Grubby one agreed ... he likes keeping things as original as possible sometimes!

[Grub]

And it IS distinctive. Parker is probably going to do this season in his sky blue, not sure what our other team bike(s) will be initially (..watch this space...)

There's always a bright side ... it could be worse ... they could have been Kawasaki Green
