    Thats what the Mrs calls it. Getting the bikes ready for the soon to be season I just get totaly focused or is it a mental state.
    So new batterys in the BMW GS, started after a few turns, the Aprilia RSVR got one also, supprised as it seemed to start before I touched the button, and it tends to do things its own way. KDX dosent have a battery but kicked it over anyway. My poor neglected EXUP hasent been run for nearly 3 years now, I really must retreive it from the underground carpark and give it some TLC.
    Not long now before the good weather comes in.

    I too have had a little tinker in the garage today on the Blade, can’t wait for some good weather.
    Lets hope 2013 is going to be a good biking year  :D

    Yep, me too, yesterday had the failrings and tank off the Trophy, adjusted the head race and fitted new plugs, amongst other things. Put it all back together, started on the button.

    Aparently the TT this year is gonna be the best ever or the best in a few years, as reports from the IOM Gov and papers say,. But cant wait to get off Island for a bit of touring and some roads where I cant see the sea from!

    Cheers Ses.

    I’ve got next week penciled in for construction (as long as the weather is dry).

    Nice fleet you’ve got there! Yep, I’m itching to get the bike out but snow has arrived again today.

    Great stuff. Is it a sectional one you’ve ordered then? Don’t make the mistake I did of not sealing around the bottom before putting stuff back in ‘temporarily’. It’s now a big job to get everything out to seal it properly. It’s amazing the tiny gaps that mice can get through.

    No not sectional – it’s a log cabin type.

    got it from here:

    Good way of putting Excelium!

    Looking at what’s got to go in to the kat cave I reckon only have room for the bench I’ve already got. Thanks for the offer.

    I’ll stick up a thread of build later.
