The Spazztrakka SR250 passed the MOT yesterday. Today was spent finishing off a service and MOT prep on a mate's Gixer 750 and fitting a new wiring loom to my SV650. It's nice when the bike fires up first press of the button after work like that. Fucking Datatools, try removing a System 3 and find out just how much original wiring loom has been chopped out by the fitters. It made it almost impossible to get running again without major and lengthy remedial work, so I bought a complete loom off ebay instead. 2 hours and 30 quid saved me an awful lot of work and hassle trying to rebuild the old one. -- Lozzo Triumph Daytona 955i SE (Black with added black bits) Suzuki SV650 K3 Suzuki GSX-R750L Yamaha 250 Flat-tracker I ride way too fast to worry about cholestorol.
Hog says... 2003 model naked SV650, bought as slight accident damaged last weekend. Plan is to fit a Gixer 750K3/K4 fairing/ race seat unit and a high level race can and use it as a track bike. I'm toying with the idea of fitting the USD forks and yokes from my Gixer into it too - they go straight in. http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=498783573&size=l -- Lozzo Triumph Daytona 955i SE (Black with added black bits) Suzuki SV650 K3 Suzuki GSX-R750L Yamaha 250 Flat-tracker I ride way too fast to worry about cholestorol.
muddy cat says... You're not the first person to suggest that, nor the second or third - it's a serious consideration at the moment. -- Lozzo Triumph Daytona 955i SE (Black with added black bits) Suzuki SV650 K3 Suzuki GSX-R750L Yamaha 250 Flat-tracker I ride way too fast to worry about cholestorol.
Why not indeed, if you can cope with the stress invoked by HM Revenue & Excise. Lots of dealers going bust but a really good, helpful friendly and well publicised shop could still prosper. These guys in Leeds www.thundercity.co.uk/index.asp are selling bikes averaging £20K a pop.
I wish I'd known yorkshiremen would pay cash for a big pile of shite *before* I'd gone for a dump. -- | ___ Salad Dodger |/ \ _/_____\_ GL1500SEV/CBR1100XXX/CBX1000Z |_\_____/_| ..89059../..24376.../..31896.
