Still get leggy and suffer a check with big temperature fluctuations
If you mean a glaze buster, three spring loaded honing stones which you whizz up and down the cylinder bores, yes I have one. Only ever used it once or twice, on old brit bike injuns.
I had an extension bar made by Cathedral City..Cadburys also make tools
I has bin buying the Halfords Expert kit when i need anyfing, lifetime warranty.
Up early Dips, back to wuk?

An putted the doors back ont..
This did cross my mind, as I agree it beggars the torque setting completely, but if you read it again I said that I greased the nuts and the wheels where the surfaces touched.
I agree I was maybe a bit ambiguous but I was very careful to not put any grease on the threads either male or female and I wiped the rest of the nuts clean afterwords to ensure none could get on the threads. There was evidence of corrosion where the outer faces of the flat wheel surfaces had been in contact with the flat metal washer that is part of the nut assembly.
However after I checked the rears and saw that they were OK I decided that I would take the front off again and degrease them. It was just that it was getting dark and I was cream crackered. It's raining today so I'll do it when I can.
And if the threads were greased then the torque I applied would be too high, as the friction between the two metals would be lower therefore they would in fact be overtorqued. As we know, they have been overtorqued by a long way for a long time now.
Nope nothing like a honing tool.
More like this.
It cleans the place where you take a piston ring out from, I believe they are called "lands"?
I also borrowed my mates cylinder honing tool and if I'd needed it he had a special tool for taking off the lip that occurs at the top of worn cylinders to stop you busting a new ring. Mind if i needed that I'd have had a rebore done. He also had a clever electric tool that you put a valve in and it recut the back face at whatever angle you mwanted so you could have nice multi-angled ones. Well, they all are to an extent but you know what I mean. He wouldn't have let me use that but he would have done them for me if I needed.
Raining today.
W managed to not get up on time so big flap on as she has to go get a blood test done at the orspickle where parking is a nightmare and you have to queue to get in, then she wants to go to her sewing club/lesson place, then somewhere else (I forget) then Tesco for summat(s).
All this on the flipping knee that she has been told to put on light duties.
She is a heck of a stubborn woman!
I could go to Tescos for her FFS!
And she doesn't HAVE to go to sewing, though I can see why she wants to.
Anyway, she can't eat after lunchtime cos of the CT scan tomoz.
We are both heart sick of hospicles and doctors surgeries etc over this past year.
So I'll finish me breakfast tea, then go to the tyre place for tracking. At least they won't have to take the wheels off to do that!
I'm secretly hoping that I measured it up so well that it won't need doing, but that is wishful thinking! At least they'll be able to adjust it easily.
Have a good day folks!
