The result of a loony midlander landing a 80ish MPH wheelie into a line of gravel which peppered the front of my bike, Arai etc. stonking wheelie mind, Geo would have been proud of it!

I told him today that he chipped your helmet (oh er!) and he said he was very sorry and he will never wheelie near a blue bike again....I'm pretty sure he is lying, but for about 10seconds he was feeling slightly guilty

One of those things mate, and I enjoyed the entertainment! Great roads. Just makes me realise how over populated and legislated the South East is. There are some cracking rides but they tend to be punctuated with stretches of limited/obstructed sections.

Well don't go to Scotland! When i go back there it makes me feel that the midlands is overpopulated and legislated with all it's 50 limits!

New Boots & Panties -

Had some new Dunlop Sportmax qualifiers fitted to my freshly powder coated six spokes. Fitted the rear wheel -



The front needs a bit of fettling before fitting. I have custom made spacers, thanks to Mark (GL_S_R, who is a God amongst men!!!), which I, being a Richard, have specified 2mm oversize. I therefore need to get them shaved by a mm each side. Does look nice though -



Bonus points for the name of the artist who released an album with the title the same as the sub heading of this post?

the wheels look fantastic mate, and you're right about mark.....
I will say the discs are letting it down a little, time to get some nice armstrongs or galfers.....

Ian dury .

Looks very nice Kevin

Good effort Lloydie, but finish it off boy!! Full answer please?

and the blockheads

looks bluetiful

Well done that man take a gold star and house point! You are the one I expected to be all over that question given your age!!

Looking as sweet as ever mate. How you getting on with the Abba front lift stand?

(:-})

It's a real bonus for working unhindered on either end of the bike. I had it up on front and rear paddock stands initially and when i found the issues with the front wheel I transferred it onto the Abba stand with front lift with no problem at all, so pretty impressed overall.

it helps if you have rear bobbins tho....

I may have a suggestion for you on Monday chap
