Good job Lloyd, I'm surprised you didn't go for some braided hose bits and pieces. Especially as you only have the bikini fairing so everything is on show.

They are braided just not stainless .

Total cost for the hole job including
The advancer and cooler is £90 :-)

I suppose the other option would be a series of O rings in the indentations to give a little more grip.

I started to fit the under tray to the bike today. What a sod! It is no on just not secure. That bit comes tomorrow if we get the stoppage of rain my phone says we will. Fingers crossed.

Managed to get the under tray secured this morning before the rain drops started
The proceeded to pick up the log air stack from Lloydie. But rain has come again so any further work must now wait

I was very tempted to pit the gazebo up over the bike. But last time I tried this I was working on a moped , a gust of wind then proceeded to launch the gazebo into me sitting on the moped and then me, the moped and gazebo own the garden

Made the Storm jealous.
Wheeled a 50cc ped out of the shed, parked it up next to the Storm and spent an hour cleaning and polishing the ped.....
