    I'm up for a pay day if it's not a mud bath. I have too many holes in the floor panels (bolt holes not rust luckily) for mud and deep water.

    wow, didn't realise there were so many available. I've got only a couple near me. Will the roof rack be ok or would you recommend to remove it.

    Do we know which lanes we might do ? Does Surrey council have up to date TRO lists ? So looking forward to it now, haven't been laning for a while and will be great to be in a bit of a convoy especially with a Full English to start the day :)

So bought a new quarter section and other new bits and had fun with the grinder and welder tacking up. Got a professional welder from work to do the...

    Thanks, it's been a fun project so far. Bought it on ebay whilst I was on a business trip in China. Ebay and jet lag is a dangerous mix. haha Project is even better as it's given my Dad a chance to come and play too which has been special. He taught me all I know so great to have him around...

    It is keeping me busy. Unfortunately the barn isn't mine, I rent the space from a local farmer but at least it's dry and out of the way.

    GoPro - like the idea... I got a gift card for Christmas so maybe I'll have something for the trip :) Rykas - nice cafe, haven't been there for years (was different name then) since I was a biker. There was a crushed Honda Fireblade in the carpark to warn the bikers what would happen if they...

    Series 2 Help ! early type valve guides and seals probl
