Just learned the hard way Doh

Post by Vtrkidda »

Ive just decided to drop my folks 10mm just to try it out 8O and soft butt here loosened all bolts then it lowerred its self 1000000 mm so I was stuck ,trying to pull them up :lol: :lol: then I had to use a trolly jack and jack the bike up while holding the bike plus tightening the bolts :lol: :lol: :thumbdown:

What a mission test ride tomorrow :wave:

Wish me luck :angel: :Beer Popcorn:
