600 mile service done today … new exhaust will be on next week …. And then the weather will probably turn to shit

CBF600 is off for it MoT tomorrow. I think all is good but we shall see.

Must be your fifteenth job in twelve months.

Probably not.....but I bet it woulda ended up some sort of "Bob Approved" Maico red....

In the perfect world I want a van that I can carry the bike in but lined and with some sort of bed. The van I went to see was perfect for my needs but the paint was shite, I'm kicking myself now as I should have bought it and just sorted the paint later.

Made it to Ericeira yesterday, dropped the bikes and drove the last 300 home to Sofia's. Long day as we rode through a VERY smokey and uncomfortable northern Portugal, riddled with fires all around. Will catch up with work and things today, might start to work on continuing the ride report too. I've fallen behind and now there's too many pictures and things Also now seriously considering getting a stable partner to my GS.

Resident chipmunk @ our campsite recently....

Back from camping yesterday....view out the back of our site....

I know now, when I dug them out. Never mind they were not to spendy on Ebay

You will have trouble fitting those in the rear because they are for the front

Passed with advisory on rear brake pads, luckily a kind Welshman sent me a set of those so playing bikes tomorrow sorting that out.

What was the colour..Dildo blue ?

Didn't pop in for his birthday, that's very rock and roll!

Had a bit of a do

I have 2 900cc bikes and both filters are double that size. You'll be fitting a new one after every run.

Oh yea, Aprilia collected yesterday, he's a happy bunny. Speedo not working, found the wires to the sensor cooked onto the exhaust and no side stand light, bad switch. These Italians know how to charge for parts don't they. It's back at the end of the month for a fork seal and front discs.

Husky Thump.....

OMG just look at the annoying Tit with his Piss Pot and shades

Just got back from Damerells bike night with Shadow. Some interesting bikes there but also some patched up twats talking smack about each other. All very tedious. I did like this GSXF600 haven’t seen one of them for years. on the other end of the scale a brand new Daytona 660. Nice Blade

Servicing work has slowed down in work so it’s time to build race engines

he's had his broom for 20 years..

Rich likes to play the field ,

increase...

It's not required here...but with some bikes I've seen riding around it would make sence...

well not so much a street cleaner than a rolling road block in a 12t sweeper, fuck doing manual work

Chich and Cong ....that takes me back

He's kind of annoying but I can still watch, what's all that about.

That is prob pressed/knocked in so an easy out will expand what's left of it. Think I'd have the engine out a drill out the remains while keeping air pressure in the water jacket hopefully keeping the swarf from entering. Be easier to glue knock the new one, be it home made or original, in with the engine out too.

Iceberg Lake, MT....

Managed to remove the snapped item from the coolant hose so at least I’ve got something to take to the Yamaha dealers next week to see if they’re able to source a new one. The rest of it is still inside the hole in the cyclinder head so getting that out could be a bit tricky. Thinking of trying one of those easy-out bits that are supposed to enable the removal of such things. The other option is to remove the cylinder head and get the offending item taken out by a professional engineering company. Could be pricey but if I remove the head myself then most of the labour is free. While I was at it I flushed out all the remaining coolant……..what a mess that was. Christ knows what the previous owner(s) used but it surely wasn’t coolant! Finally removed all the crap so at least that’s a positive.

True that I have giant hands but dam that's one small filter I find..

He should get back here, have 100% proof the earth is flat .

Ignore the twat Bob … welcome to van life … living the dream .

Wouldn’t have been the original band . Think most of the Village People died of Aids … must of been a tribute act

Wooden overcoat next.

Our ceiling, not

The boys are going to a dyno event Saturday...couple hours from here...who know I might even get it on the dyno just for fun...if I can clean out my air filter by Saturday...notice she's was getting thrusty during the trip...Dan's bike was always taking a few bucks short on every tank...was suppose to clean it at every 15 k...it's up to 25 k and with the amount of bugs it must have injested last Sunday...the thing must be plugged solid with bug crap...

Met up with a few folk last night.

You have zero class

Happy birthday … enjoy this ..

HMS Prince of Wales leaving St Ives today.
