Thank you, we are lucky to have lots of good riding locally so I try to get out whenever I can!

My bike is nothing fancy, a steel hardtail I custom built up with some nice bits.

Steel is real

I unfortunately don't own steel anymore.

Initialised my MusicBox, thanks to Spuddyo for the menu translation.
Took almost 10min to remove all the J-Pop and J-Rock from the HDD....must have still been from one of the japanese owners.

Now I just have to burn some CDs of my own music as the only CDs we own anymore are my wifes Taylor Swift albums.

Outing in the bus later but reminds me I have like a rubber creeking sound from front of car. Are poly bushes more noisy than rubber bushes or just need more grease?

liam you will need poly bush grease for your bushes other grease will be ok for a while if you are desperate most motor factors will do a branded one

Drove it 120 miles round trip for a mini meet and 2 cups of tea oh and to drop off some stuff as well as to pick some stuff up.

Third time of cleaning the roof in four years .. washed ,clay mitt and waxed .. was gonna DA polish it but it’s a big area and only Circus freaks can see on top anyway ... can highly recommend a clay mitt instead of a bar ..they’re big old girls

[peter strokosz]

Just da polished the bonnet but not the wing .. look at the difference between them .... I’m very impressed

That was a lovely tool you showed me today, puts mine to shame as you have the DAS Pro mine is the basic one, I should have swapped them over when you went to make the second cup of tea, missed opportunity grrrrrrrrr ;o)))))))

Check with who does Pop Top conversions on Elgrand's as if it had a sunroof then it was removed or try the breakers, I think one of them is Tojo?!

 

[keithguzzi]

Can you just replace the glass without pulling half the bus apart?

I would not know, might be easier to replace the whole cassette, check your insurance and the windscreen/glass cover section to see if it would be covered as usually there is just a £75 excess to pay.
