XTreme Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Cos I just got a Whatsapp message from Rafa.......the dealer in Granada! "Buenas tardes Pete, había un hueco hoy en ITV y ya se la hemos pasado. Mañana se la llevan a taller para revisión. La tendré lista el lunes día 5" He's saying that they had a free space in the ITV (MOT) Centre today so the Beemer got it's 2 year ITV certificate. It was originally scheduled for Monday! Tomorrow it's going into the workshop for a full service, and it'll be ready to be collected Monday morning! That worked out well with me getting my 2019 tax rebate today, because that'll cover the difference between the two. I think my pulse has quickened a bit! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 It's got a center stand and everything, so you can clean and lube that chain after every ride or every 117km, whatever comes closer, perfect! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll drive him mad 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
