    At the risk of being shot is it just me or does the blade resemble a 125 in that pic?

    Friggin' hell, Golfy. You could have opened it for us. Reminds me of when I'm on Indian Brides dot com and they're all dressed in saris and swathes of friggin' silk and Bollywood jewels. In my view show us the real stuff or 'F' off!!:D:D;)

    I don’t want to prematurely show it off nigel, I’ve often been known as a tease. Starting to get a nice collection of parts to be fitted over the winter. I’m sure there will be a grand reveal... once I’ve broken it :D

    Got a bit of a ride in this arvo. Soon realised it's time to replace the liner in my winter jacket.

    Not overly concerned though, because I knew hypothermia wouldn't set in under 30 miles.:);)

    Well, as this thread isn't abut what you did to your CBR1000RR, I went out on the MT10! :D
    Blows me away every time I ride it. Traction 1 and Power 1 and it gets grin inducingly silly!

    Did nothing to the bike but buttoned up the block work above the door to the new garage I’ve just about finished building. Same to do at the other end then paint the walls, floor and get some juice and lights in there before the bike finds it’s new home away from the welding and grinding and rust in the other garage!

    It has a 75mm insulated roof, electric roller shutter and uPVC windows n door! Can’t wait.

    It’s just the right height to climb up on the bench then on to the tank. Fabulous :D

    Electric fence units aren't that expensive you know, they don't even use a lot of electricity, even for a Scotsman :p

    Its more at risk from push bikes, scooters and crap being thrown in the side door than it is for them climbing on it. Even though I built a groovy shed for the crap the garage is easier to access. Plan 2 - extend the garage and add bike only area...just waiting on getting planning ;)

    Well I tried to ride my bike today as it’s the first free and dry weekend I’ve had for a while....
    And....
    The devil wouldn’t start :rolleyes:
    It’s been sat for a few weeks, outside, under a cover and under my version of a carport. so figure the battery might’ve been suffering. Battery is now out and I need to source myself a charger and we’ll try again, maybe next weekend. This is just hammering home my need for a garage (or bike-friendly housemates...).
    Shame. Pedal powered ride for the afternoon instead...
