Garage full (not for long)

    It's odd. I've got another UKRMer's Bandit 1200 in my garage, but not
    my own.

    Ogden - It did get an MOT. It also had a full service, front brake
    pads, degunking of the rears incl. a piston and seal set, bulbs, a fuse.
    The problem with the starter motor was a loose bolt inside the
    crankcover. This bolt keeps the starter motor firmly attached to the
    crank. Except when the bolt is loose.

    I've cleaned it (in a loose sense of the word; JP would be appalled),
    and I'm taking it up to the Dick Turpin tonight [0].

    Anyone fancy meeting me up there and having a CIHAG On Ogden's Bike
    Fest? I wish they hadn't put the mileage on the service sheet.

    I might be able to bring it back on Saturday, if that suits.

    That's one more than I've got.
    ....and that'll be why.
    Loose bolt and lazy owner in keeps-bike-off-the-road-for-months shocker.
    All sounds good, and not bad for the money.
    Uh-oh. Can you book it in again tomorrow for a new set of fork seals?
    Heh. **** :)
    Weather.com suggests that'd be a wonderful idea. Drop me a line
    when you know when.

    If you've got tomorrow off, you could always bring it round to my firm and
    we'll stunt the fucker on the industrial estate.

    Got a few errands to run, but I'll try to find the time.

    Thought you said you were busy?

    It would be a distraction for the prolls to see posh boys stunt a Bandit.

  9. We've got a lovely looking Bandit at ours, too, that's neither mine
    nor Will's. How odd!

    Will's off to US tomorrow, by the way, if you want to 'come and get
    it'. [1]

    Hmm. Don't know when I'll be able to. It may be weeks away. I'll be
    in touch.
