All is not lost

And once more into the breach dear friends!

Fancy a fettle day at the original home of the fettle

a mere couple of miles from cats place, I could well host this

Now, may have to push it back a wkend to either Sat 31st March or Sun 1st April

All those who'd be game fer that weekend say 'Aye'!


Done: Homo sap navigation/ twisty thing on bars to make it go vroom/ grabby thing to make it stop (in front of twisty thing)/ 'leccy things front and rear to make it glow at night/ Sucky + drippy oiler thing to keep chains moist (!!) / Laser Pro Stock Race pipes / bleeding ear drums (see previous mod)
To do: Educate homo sap nav system to operate twisty + grabby things/ get ear plugs

All Trashed Now... Pants... its a Cat B Mwahahaha it lives again!!


Remember every driver is a deaf myoptic twat who is out to kill you, ALWAYS assume they are going to do THE most f*cking DUMBASS, STUPID manouver possible, at the worst possible moment; get past, and get past quick

If my holiday is not booked over the top of it, I'd like to turn up.

My TDM9 is in need a of service, 11k in the last 6 months, it also needs the shims done.
I've done 37k now, it is running sweet but the shims have never been done and should be pretty soon.
I'll probably service it the weekend before, but haven't the knowledge or confidence to tackle the shims on my own.

Four questions!!
Is anyone else doing this?
How long does it take?
Do I need any special tools?
Is anyone going who has experience of doing this?

I can offer a Free HID light conversion to whoever helps me out on the shim side.
I put in two but took one out, the high beam is good but the flasher is useless when you need it?

Oh and of course I'll bring lots of cake with me!!!!
