Getting excited - Steady the Edward - 08-05-2015
Well thats the Bike ready to go ! the holiday Insurance done ! the riding gear decided on ! leather trousers Textile Jacket with divers wetsuit , jobs a good'n , surprising how much you can get done in two weeks once you get stuck in , two weeks ago it looked as if I had a mountain of stuff still to do and wondered if I would ever be ready in time and here I am 20 days to sailing and its all done ! bring it on

My wife was asking me why I had to start cleaning my leathers and boots last week. You can't start too early I said, lots to do.

Well it was all done then some fool went for a tide and the clutch slave cylinder started sticking , so out with the clymer manwell and the toolbox , had a read of the said manwell and thought Oh sh-- take the panels off take the Exhaust off thought ooops dont like the sound of this , took the belly pan of and looked at the offending item right there in front of me and thought why would I need all the side panel off when it is there in front of me why would I take off the exhaust when there is no need ?? thanks mr Clymer two hrs latter all cleaned up greased up new fluid bled through working a treat the piston was sticking that was all , panic over !! out for another ride , yep sound that will do , do need the riding time though you know what its like when you haven't been out on the bikes for a while and you go out and feel as if you aught to put the stabilisers back on , well I felt a bit like that soon felt better but a good excuse to go out some more ( and any excuse is good enough for me , just don't tell thee boss lol )
