My tyre arrived, so I've taken the wheels & got them fitted this afternoon. I guess that means it's ready for Germany.

Oh & I washed it before topping up the Scotoiler.

That's a real bummer Barmy, but as if to rub salt in the wound two people liked what you did.  :whistling:
Name and shame them Mick  :rofl2:

If you click where it says '2 people liked this' it tells you which arseholes liked it.

I just liked it too. Not everyone publishes their "slip ups". I think that deserves a like.

I wish you  @gsxbarmy a speedy revovery :cheers:

He had to make room for the coming gunk from the oiler.

I washed my chains with kerosene, adjusted them and oiled them with gun oil.
Chains are pretty silent now :smile2:

Most of us run only one chain, whats your setup or am i missing something? Or did you want to add extra oil to the timing chain?   :stir:
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Replacing head stem bearings, pulled the front end off and removed the triple clamps.  Was a bit surprised to see the bearings had already been replaced with tapered rollers, but both top and bottom were shagged. Wil post photos later.

Also replacing rear light with LED unit.

Some piccys, havent finished putting it back together yet.

I would get one but my legs are medium and my bike wouldn't be standard anymore.
