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.

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.

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?!

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.

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.

Might consider after getting my bike back from Canterbury Rides.

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.
