Wiggled my gear lever after a ride, has dome play so I'll have to strip it and see. Found some nice bronze self lubricating bushes on Ebay that might fit, will see. Otherwise it will be Grog's marine bearing grease trick in the meantime.
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Does anyone know gear lever bushing ID and OD? I'd also like to order one because of lever wiggling.

Serviced my ignition barrel whilst the front end is apart today. Found a handy little push in the right direction created by Hooli some time ago - thanks!

I got bored this afternoon so went for a toddle during the 'storm Ashley' with it's imaginary threat to life etc. It's normal autumn ffs, windy & some rain at times. Climate change bullshit again to scare people.

Anyway, pretty back roads, Squires, pretty villages & a quiet bike night.

I did find out my front brake light switch has broken. Should be fun as I epoxied it on cause the screw snapped years ago..

Another great day on the right side of the grass.😎

Yeah i thought so as well. Even the Tardus.

Yes great pics but...

First 2 show these eyesore propellers. Plastered all over here. Even cut trees down for them. Wonder if any of the greens gave them a hug before they were cut down.

Not generally against them, but they should not be placed all over. Saw a positive example in the USA, where they were located in mass without hurting anyone's eyes.

Public Tardis not Police Tardis though, not too many left now & a lot that are house defibs or tiny libraries rather than phones.

I can't stand the bloody things. Even by the greenie's own lies, there's so much Co2 used to make them that they are pointless & the ones out to sea are even worse. That just happens to be the first fun bit of road heading out in that direction.

MOT due so up on paddock stand clean chain and lube. Checked lights etc - position bulb gone, not sure if they check this on MOT but better get one. Otherwise all looks ok but who knows !!

I think like most lights it's a 'if fitted it must work' having said that I'd be surprised if they noticed with the headlight always on.
