It's Finished

Well apart from the MOT.

http://sportsbike.org/makeover/makeover.htm

A slight problem though. I took it out for a shakedown this evening but it
stated to lose power as if it's only running on three cylinders. Plugs?
Leads? Any other suggestions?

 

It died of embarassment at being pink.

 

The intensity of the pinkness is conflicting with the essentially blokey
nature of the four-cylinder engine. It's trying to evolve into a Triumph
Tiger in self-defence.

It was pink when I got it.

 

Hell if I drop another cylinder it might evolve into a gay machine.

 

But in defence, it has a large rear sprocket and a 13 tooth front sprocket.

Good point, it is a replacement fuel tank.

Actually I was hinting at cruisers.

 

R1200C?

"Hello, you've reached Lozzo's phone, sorry I'm not here to take your
call - you can leave a message after the beep if you wish. I may reply,
but the likelihood is I'll just fucking ignore you."

Molly secured a place in history by writing:

I suspect I've skipped some earlier revelations. But ****, Molly: That's
truly ghastly.

 

I know! Those teeth!

 

had one of those as a loaner - easily the worst bike I've ever ridden.

 

Look around the garage floor. Can you see a piston?

 

it's probably acutely embarrassed at having "Feisty" written on the
screen.

HTH.

Champ says...

He has a 'How to fix bikes' book in front of him, that's my guess.
