So now that Winter is here.......

[billinom8s]

Has anyone got any Winter projects lined up? Restoration, servicing, repairs or replacements?

I know I have a ped to get running and some running repairs to Kims mx5.

Anyone else???

My first project is to refit the quilted liner into my jacket.
Went out on a quite spirited memorial run yesterday and was feeling the cold, especially in the early morning mists.

Just general maintenance really to the bikes and get more ped performance!
Then just looking for track bike for next year. Besides this I havent any real plans
but then if something turns up then all could change

Turn the tl1000r into track bike had it running just got to make an exhaust for it and junk all the road gear.and finally finish jo's gsxr just need to bleed front brakes and fit front mud guard and full fluid service. Think I done everything to the ten but....sure I can think of something.

Take off the Chrome sides of the CB13's engine (If I can get them off without wrecking the bike), and re-lacquer them or clean them up. Just gota figure out how.

Also need to repaint the left hand black crank cover of the gsxr engine. What's a good paint to use? It doesn't have to look fantastic, just protect the engine....

Apart from all this, getting some decent light in the garage would be a good starting point!

I've always found PJ1 engine paint to work well

Occasionally remove the house dust from the R1 (she lives in my kitchen)


Oh and clean, service and bring back into life the Bandit 12 as she hasn't been on the road for a few years now and she is my steed for both the Le Mans Moto Gp & the TT in 2015.

Both taxed & MOT'd, and just normal odd maintenance jobs to do to either of them
