Nut and bolt roast with oil gravy?

Stripped and painted. Gotta wait 24 hours for the paint to cure before I can refit the covers. In the mean time I want to check the friction plates in the clutch and fit the new springs.

I have no idea what that is, but post pictures of what you end up doing!

First proper blue skies I’ve seen since December. Am now enjoying being home with the windows open and Spring beginning to spring, and will take the bike out for lunch today.

Looks like a good machine, anyone seen one in the flesh?

For the last few days the forecast for today have been much warmer and dry with some sunshine. It's raining and I blame Starmer.

Next job for a young lad is the RM80, had a qwik look see...oil pump dead so big end and crank are in need of replacment, as is the piston and bore. So he is going for a big bore kit..so i have to make acrank case jig to split the cases first..I will get some metal in to do that next week. I have a drybolic puller/pusher so that may help..

And you would rather live with...lol....and soon you'll have a goat has your family pet instead of a dog...

You don't want to move too far from your mother/sister/aunty. (Same person).

Next step, new EBC HD clutch springs to fit, also cover to be painted. Check with the Triumph T300 group and you don’t have to drain the oil to take the cover off. They were right

I was born & raised in what now is a big city....back then it was pretty nice....only about 300k people....now there's over 2.3 million. Moving to a town w/ less than 2,000 people almost 7 yrs. ago now, was 1 of the smartest things I've ever done. Oregon is beautiful but there's just waaay too many people on the left side of the state. It's so much more peaceful over here in the NE corner....

To me it is Nute, to me home is where your born if that makes any sence...I did , for about 3 years live in big cities and it's felted so alien to me ...I guess if someone is born in a big city and moves to a place like this..it might feel strange to them i suppose...

I see you've got it fired up. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1CgXHdwYpF/

Bored. Waiting for parts and looking at pictures of boobs. Weather getting warmer at the weekend so I might have to get the bikes out.

Job i am doing now is my Honda C70 bags of power, so much so that the clutch slipped...done that now fitting the correct front forks to it. I am the second owner..bought new by my Dad in 1977..3thou odd miles. Mum rang me 12 years ago to say they had found it in the garage under a sheet..you better come and take it before your brother sells it. I was at Mums before she put the phone down.

That's it..think it will be my 4th.. great if you have foot change problems.

Same here, car, MOT plus service plus road tax..bike also needed to be insured..mega month this one..Ow! and heating oil last month too!

You do live in a lovely part of the world Marcel.

Oops !!

The snow is starting to pile up...

Car MOT done for another year.

Covers cured and on the bike with new gaskets. Last one to do is the large clutch cover but I am waiting until the next oil change as I want to change the clutch springs at the same time. Maybe sooner if the clutch slip returns and I need a new clutch pack. But we shall see. More small steps but I am enjoying doing it.
