B*gger ! I seem to be doing a good job of forgetting things this weekend I was so p*ssed off at the weather this morning stopping me from getting on with the conservatory, I forgot all about this little do .....

Sorry mate, looks like ya did OK though

nice one blimey, sorry didnt make it over, didn't finish putting my bike together till about 7.

glad u got the brakes done

Was a really good day !!!

Cheers for the BBQ mate

Good to see the bike all finished ... looks cracking mate, lovely track bike !

The bike looks good and sounds great,
and BBQ, was awesome too.

looks awesome dude, sorry i didnt make it mate. looks like you got a good job done

All that attended remember that tiny oil leak which i thought was sump washer??

Well turned out to be a cracked sump. I'm to blame for that

Over tighten sump plug

So had to drop the sump

Unrepairable (gone to far across for steal insert or hellicoil) so just purchased a S/H hornet sump. Deeper so holds more oil and looks as if it will clear the exhaust. Just waiting on gasket to arrive tomorrow and try again

Time is ticking

Another BBQ on the cards to put it back together for me yeah ???

I know it's easy to say afterwards but for future use a torque wrench. You know it's not to loose but tight enough not to come undone.

I use a halfords professional one which was the only one I could find with NM and lbf.ft on with a window scale, that wasn't silly money, was 3/8 drive and wnt low and high enough.

Always use a new sump washer as well for the price of 'um

Hang on Mark... How quickly we forget certain conversations eh...

Nick after changing oil filter and filling with oil - Quote 'Hey Mark, have you tightened the sump plug mate?'

Reply - Quote 'Yes mate, all torqued up' - 'Now, get back to work and let me finish this beer and hot dog'....

Looking good mate................Very blue
