Bad day for me today, I woke up in the middle of the night thinking where did I put the o ring for the fuel pump I cleaned recently, had I put it back on??
Got to the garage this morning and took it apart again and NO O ring  :furious:
ordered a new one at £7 plus £3 postage from Bristol ffs, it weighs about 1gm

Last week I found out my sump bolt had sheared the thread on the oil pan, so today tried to remove the oil pan ready to re thread it and one out of the 20 bolts to do, the one connecting the oil pipes, has sheared, it's gonna be a pig to do as the bike cant be raised at the mo!

Sheesh!

Yesterday I looked at mine and thought " I rally should put that bloody rear wheel back on..."


I reckon my shoulder and ankle are probably up to me having a crack at riding her again.

Not funny Grog!!
Saturday was effin freezing here, I had to linesman for my sons footie team and came home with trench foot!
It took an hour of soaking my feet in a bowl of hot water before I could think of getting out to the garage!

Back then, think it was the 14/18 W....W.. winters (at least it feels like that long ago :rofl2: ) for every hour of riding I spent 2 hours in the hot tub.  :cheers:

This is why you pommie fools made a mistake sending the convicts here.
Anyone with sense would have moved here and left the convicts behind in England.....


Yeah its been way to hot lately. But I detest sub-zero temperatures, so I'm not complaining too much.

Isn't that why you got the al-fresco redesign on your house... better airflow?   :whistling:
