Aye, once had a bee hit me, visor up at 60 or so, massive shiner - hurt like a b8stard and had to ride back from Devil's Bridge with one eye shut! Could've been worse, mate on a Gixer hit a pheasant!
I'm so unlucky that if there is such a thing as re-incarnation I'll come back as me!

Check you've still got your wallet, and if you don't remember any of the events of the day, and your butt is sore, suspect rohypnol. :lol:

Rode the spluttering beast over to Tony for some major surgery which included Tony taking a hammer & chisel to the front cam cover to rectify a rounded off cam cover bolt... 8O

Rear cams out & reset I now have a fully working Custard Crumble... :thumbup:

Boxing it all back up, just did the last air box screw...Went to put the front plug cap back on...The throttle cables are hanging down un-conected...

DOH!

Air box back off...throttle conected...Air box back on reached over for the last air box screw, which is sitting next to the intake stacks !

DOH! Air box lid back off...stacks on...Lid on for the final time...


Meanwhile Tony has wheeled Steve Vanstubs bike down so he can ride off & notices no mirrors...at this point I felt better... Mirrors fitted I said to Tony 'cor I just forgot to put the satcks in...' Tony thinks for a moment then walks back up to the garage & gets Steves stacks... :lol: :lol:

Finaly rode off after I rememberd to reconect the front indis ... :oops:

Rides like a different bike now...a proper Storm...

Cheers Tony... :thumbup: Enjoy that beer tonight.

Oh & Kev, Steves wallet was empty...Tony saw to that... :lol:
