    Yeah dammit, why couldn't have been like this yesterday? Mine needs a good long hours run to clean some cobwebs out.

    I did think of that yesterday but just as I was about to say it, we found the fan wasn't turning on. But thanks to Phil for reminding.

    A good day. Sorry I couldn't stay longer, I like to see a job all the way through. Plus it would have been good to knock back a couple more of my favorite brew.

    Good to meet you all as well.

    Cheers fellas!

    In all seriousness there did you guys get the gear shaft lever bolt? It didn't want to thread in, so I left it for the time being meanin to return to it later.....

    Don't want mr Ware going for a burn in the morning and his gear lever detatch

    The trailer hides the lever on the photo after it's loaded. So I can't see the bolt.

    Unless one of you guys remember doing it up?

    Damn shame if it's the case. And blame rests with me. While it may sound like and excuse, if I was able to stay, it wouldn't have happened cause I would have shooed all of you away from the bike for 5 mins to check, re-check and verbally run through EVERY nut, bolt and connection we touched.

    This is my procedure when I replace or repair anything on the car. And I've never had my suspension or gearbox fallout after a changeover, so I know it works.

    i did not have as much fuel in the tank as i thought, flicked the reserve on and to the nearest petrol station and all good. bike went great heading to work this morning.

    can't thank you guy's enough for helping me with this, was also so glad i was able to learn so much

    No problem. I share Kiffsta's mantra. "I hate seeing a bike with rego just sitting in the garage getting no use because of one problem"
