Best laid plans

a decent rattle gun will take 2 seconds. i have 3, two run off air compressor, other is 18volt ryobi rechargeable, used many times. use it for work. it undid sprocket nut easily. cant believe how rusty that one is, mine has no rust. even your sprocket has rust on outside. maybe some chain lube with a bit of fling required.

Salt does nasty things to bikes. You down undies are fortunate. I am glad it's raining now and the stuff gets flushed off the road.

Thank you Seth

My puncture has turned out to be a bloody expensive excercise.
Will keep you all posted.

S.

The puncture on my car cost over £1325.
£875 for a new wheel (cracked when it went down a pot hole at night in the rain) and £450 for 2 new tyres (both had to be done due to 4 wheel drive, tread on the tyres on one axle must be within 2mm of each other). Tyre got ruined as it caught the edge of the pothole and ripped the wall. Only good news was that I had an insurance policy on the wheel knowing how much they cost if damaged - still cost me the £450 for 2 tyres though

Feeling a bit better now buddy?

Sophie is re assembled with her replacement swing arm.
It all went very well.
I left the sprocket in place till the impact gun and new nut arrive.
I intend to replace the front sprocket within the week.
This afternoon was gorgeous and actually sunny so I went out on her..
It was dark when i got back so tomorrow after work I will go over all the bolts with my torque wrench and re check the chains tension.

Within a couple of hundred yards I had forgotten the recent hassles..
Best all round bike I have owned.

Well done buddy I said in the other thread .add up the hours you have spent on your bike times it by £60 Then spend that amount on something you want as you earned it .Well done on your progress .

[Speedy1959]

Thank you Seth..
I am looking forwards to getting the impact gun you recommended.
Sophie asked me to send you her latest photo with Dels Black swing arm fitted..
So here she is....

[seth]

That looks fantastic especially with your colour scheme.
Bikes looking great .

[VladTepes]

Yep.
Time for a tail tidy.

[Speedy1959]

Nope...
The very first thing I did when I bought the bike was the chuck the "tail tidy" and hunt for an original unmollested rear mudguard.

I cant say I am a fan of the "Tail Tidy" look myself..

My bike was butchered under the seat to make the tail tidy fit and so it was no longer waterproof under there..

So respectfully.....

NO THANKS !!

Looking great Speedy & love the different colour scheme. I don't normally say this about other peoples girl's, but Sophie is quite a Sexy bitch with a nice rear end & set on her. 
Sorry she has caused you a bit of pain lately, but she is well worth the effort & high maintenance.

Hi Sweaty..
I am flattered when another bloke likes the look of Sophie..
In fact I said to my mate the other day...
If she was a wench I would "Do" her ! Lol

Wench = Sheila lol

[Speedy1959]

Sweaty..
Sophie says you may like her front end so just for you....

[Sweaty]

Tell Sophie that i love her front end & would sleep with her/ do her, if i lived closer (with your permission of course) 
Well done of turning her in to a great looking Gal Speedy.
