    Well it isn't really designed for what you'd need it for but to be honest they'd be just glad to Hire it out!

    The Hire Van parked up in the Carpark at our local B&Q Superstore in Crewe never turns a wheel as far as I can tell.

    B+Q Van hire is a NO NO! I tried before I got my Volkswagen and they wanted £14.00 an hour! That works out at £336.00 for a 24 hour period!!! It's only intended for folks to nip their flat pack kitchen home and is very cheap as long as you're back within the hour!

    I got back from Turkey at 3am this morning. I now need to rebuild the bike and I'm still not happy with the front brake so might need to re-bleed it when I get down there this afternoon but going to try a different lever first.

    Planning on getting there for about 3pm.

    At least they can't quote the old " it's always raining in Manchester" it's been baking up here since February and even old Barney is thinking of moving up here for the rays and nightlife:cool:

    I've put the standard brake lever on and loads more travel available. :D. Hopefully more confidence on the brakes.

    Oh, l'll be stopping off at motorcycle megastore in Swindon on the way so if anyone is desperate for something PM me and I might be able to pick it up.
