    Woke up went into garage this afternoon. Bike on floor fell off the hyd stand. Must have lost pressure and clipped tool box under it. Toppled bike off into the oil radiator
    Brand new fresh painted panels ruined screen ,tc switch , clip on , pegs , rearset, hmmm think that's all
    Nice. So that's now March racing and track day out the winda
    Oh and the vito mirror got smashed off by a another van wanting to use my side of the road
    And I drove into a kerb in my car and scratched the bumper
    Hmmmmm niiiiiiiiice

    Is your bench not pinable? Mine is machine mart one and you can pin it in case of hydraulic failure

    Was just going to ask that about the Pin!


    Always use my Pin as I've seen a Trolley Jack let go on a Blokes leg when I was a lad due to him not using axle stands or at the very least shovin the wheel under sideways.

    Hydraulic seals tend to fail more at this time of year due to the cold
