I'll tell you if it's any good when it arrives from Germany.

It should be spot on .
We have an account with louis and have brought stuff from them for well over 25 years .

Top tip they do a full range of kids bike clothing and helmets if you know anyone who needs them ..

Ordered it on the 16th arrived this morning, that's 2.5 days process and delivery from Germany to N.Ireland, I'm happy with that.

[VladTepes]

Today bought & fitted new rear brake shoes wheel cylinders , brake fluid to my Corolla. Shoes, cylinders only lasted 25 yrs, fluid changed regularly. Not a bad innings i thought. Drums still in good nick. Amazing little car.

Had my BMWR1200RT's annual service yesterday I have complete faith in these motorcycle technicians at Skinny's Garage. The bike is 2015 model first registered April 2014 just travelled 177,000 kms is now due front rotors and pads which will be replaced asap as we're doing Christmas in July At Tenterfield 20/7. Rear rotor and pads were replaced last year. Trouble free riding is my goal.

Nothing too exciting - basic service items, R1 throttle tube, grips, Tokico 4 pot calipers. Promised I'd leave my newly acquired GSX alone until I finished some other projects but it's escalated already and I'm on my way down the slippery slope...

TeeKay at Skinny's did a high comp piston and big valve head for the wife's DR650 recently and I was very happy with the level of service and workmanship. It takes a lot for me to hand something I'm capable of doing myself over to someone else but this was ultimately a trial run for a much more extensive rebuild of an XS650 I've had tucked away in the back corner of the shed for quite some time.

Lurch, bloody old 650 Yams. What a bike. Bought one brand new 1975, maybe TX. Had cafe racer kit, had chopper kit, more exhausts than i remember. Never a problem. Rode it Melb to Brisbane, Brisbane to Melb. Think in 80 th ks just a few globes, amazing bike.

Muc-Off sent me a 20% Birthday discount, so I treated myself to one of their bike specific jet washers with all the tools and cycle and motorcycle specific wands, plus a snow foam wand. Plus about six bottles of the pink stuff, and various sprays.

It also had a free gift containing a few bits and bobs in smaller bottles, and some stickers. Oh....and some super duper thin expanding sponges and 2 micro cloths.

We all like stickers don't we lads ?  I will decorate my shed with mine.

I made a specific space for it right by the door, so when the need calls, it's not a great big faff to haul it all out to use it.
