Belly dancer for hire anyone. Comes with own nipple tassels :lol: I'm hoping the weather shall be good tomorrow so I intend on putting the bike back together. It will be good to be able to hear the old girl again. Shame It's not ready to be legally road ridden. Starting to miss riding the bike now. Well...not the riding so much as it's mostly traffic and stop start at lights but I do miss the sound.

Thrashed it home from work, in time to miss the rain... :thumbup:

Tucked it up in the cave with an oil pan under the draining sump for fresh oil & filter tomorrow...

Not really, it does a job & needs manitenance to keep it doing that job. I could do without keep throwing money at it but needs must.

On the CBF, I fitted a replacement application head for my scottoiler, adjusted the chain ready for Wales, checked coolant level and some wear strips on the rear sets to stop chaffing.

As prommissed changed the oil & fillter on Custard then...

Swapped out the side stand with the one swapped last week with flojoe...Custard now stands up straighter... :thumbup:

Then whipped the rear wheel out to change the wheel bearings...checked the new ones before removal of the old...too big, not the correct ones...good job they were free & even better that I checked befor I removed the old ones...

Then inbetween showers I stripped, cleaned & rebuilt a set of callipers for Vanstub...

Got the wheel back in & closed up shop for the day.

Tomorrow I have a front disc to change.
