I was very lucky to get a ignition barrel and gas cap with the matching key through a guy in the U.S. I had brought a new set of tyres , the plan is to get the rims painted or powdercoated, but nothing has happened as I suffer from rare condition called lack of motivation.

    The WR needing fork seals, indicators x4, rear tail and stop light, rear tyre and rego plate. Ive fitted a new rear tyre and brought new fork seals and that's as far as I've got, that lack of motivation again

    So dont know when Ill be back out riding with yah.
    I know that condition, Well! Great to hear from you mate. Let us/me know what else you need and or who you need to have do stuff on the bikes, I can call a favour or two these days, happy to help. Can spin the odd spanner for a good cause, and it goes without saying, "You are a bloody magnificent cause"
    Every day above ground is a good day!:

    Traffic on both motorways looks very heavy, will check later but might flag it this week.

    No, would ride it again, but I gotta pay for it.
    getting bike in for service this weekend, not sure if it will be ready, or they can fit it in.

    definitely will try those remote dumplings......

    Long as he could touch the ground he could take The Coal Burner if he wanted to.
    She's just got a WOF, in 6 months time she'll cost something ridiculous to register, cant wait.
