Not exactly the weekend, but I have managed to get a couple of weeks off because of a lack of work. My working year is nearly done.
Today I pulled the SV out of the shed and dusted it off, gave it an oil and filter change, kicked the tyres, reinstalled the battery and took it for a run. It hasn't been ridden much since March. Tomorrow the old Beemer goes up on the hoist for a full service, swap the shocks out plus a long list of repairs (eg cracked subframe) after a fairly intense couple of months. There is probably two or three days work there. Hopefully the battered old girls replacement will arrive by the end of the week and I will be able to go over it and break it in some before putting it up on the hoist for a lot of modifications over the wet. Lotta, lotta work. Cheers |
