what have you done to your "bike" today

[Duffy1964]

Swapped over the forks, front wheel & discs over on my winter hack....if I ever get a set of manual cct's I might get to ride it

[VTRDark]

You still not got any. I thought you bought some on eBay recently.

Weather is beautiful here today, after a few very cold days we got 16 C so I dropped my job for the day and got the bike out for a couple hour run on back roads before the Friday commute hits.
Every time I ride it I feel 20 years younger

It was on gum tree Carl, some guy in dundee but was a messer and never responded after I thought we had done a deal for them

I think Mac has got hold of Bazza so should hopefully get some of his soon

Attacked it with a grinder...

Finished off the steering head bearings, working nicely now - also changed the seat lock and top yoke so I now have a single key (plus spare) for ignition, tank and seat - as Mr Honda intended, as opposed to the three different ones the bike came with!!

Tried slotting the frozen screw in the swingarm - no joy, just going to have to cut the head off and drill the sucker out.

Also tried taking off Air Cleaner - 3 decent screws, one chewed up horror I could not shift!

Nice job Mike

What make is that double bubble screen it looks like it should do a good job of getting the wind above your helmet.
