Default Re: What have you tinkered with today?

I just made a table to build my Lego on. No really, an actual table made out of wood. I had a lot of help from wifey, but it is all good and seems quite solid, but then it only has to hold small trays of Technic Lego pieces.

Right off to build a robot, once that is done the world will be mine... All will be trampled under the boots of my Lego killing machine! Has anyone got any batteries, I think that these ones are flat...

Coolant change, although the stuff that came out looked ok.

Nice easy job, except for seeing how full the reservoir was!

Oil, filter and spark plugs. Also rewired the indicators and replaced one that an LED was out on.

Default What have you tinkered with today?

Treated myself to a better satnav case. My TomTom start 20 fits perfectly. Had to buy an additional bracket due to the lack of handlebars on the VFR.

It was really down to the Givi case really. It only comes with the bar style attachment. It also has a quick release mechanism. Much better made than the £13 jobby I was using before.

This turned out to be a disaster - rolled the bike out of the garage and forgot to put the side stand down - end result was me re-enacting the scene out of Fools and Horses where Del boy leans on the bar when the counter is up...

Headlamps replaced anyway, along with a clutch lever and indicator - thank god for crash mushrooms!!!
