Default Winter projects

What sort of winter projects are everybody doing then.

Mine will be
If one of my insurance claims pays out is.

White powder coated wheels
White powder coated swingarm
Bright Red powder coated front and rear brake calipers
A set of front and back wavey disc's
Clearcoat the rest of my bike
Spray the hugger Rizla Blue too match the rest of the bike.
And I may even start a different respray job on my spare set of panels, maybe the Suzuki Gsxr Blue/white colours.
As well as the odd jigsaw

My winter project is to get frostbite whilst commuting to work. Might invest in some new tyres and numerous tanks of petrol

Not so much of the freezing bits (electric gloves & socks), but I'm there for the rest.

Cheers Make.

Winter...projects....er, probably decorating the house.

The bike will get washed once a week, and thats it.

I have made an extremely half hearted commitment to actually bolt the various bits of disparate mechanical miscellany that constitute the Kat back together.

Don't hold your breath.

I look forward to seeing this, particularly if you're going to take it to Santa Pod.
