It was OK - except for the very minor things we discussed - when I saw it the other day.

I think you have room for optimism, but good luck anyway.

Well blow me down IT PASSED.

Just a few advisory items.

Drive chain loose. Only just tightened that up so means it's wearing out.

Drive chain worn but not considered excessive. Yup fugured that from the above.

Front wheel bearings are slightly rough.

Front wheel bearings have slight free play.

So all the above I can safely say are more than likely down to my fondness of one wheel riding.

Oh and Number plate small.

So I am a happy chappie now.

Yeah, I've got to take the Blue Blade along soon - I think I'll be giving them the 'helpless bird' look as I clutch the baffles in a little plastic bag and go with the "But it came with them in this bag, and I've no idea how to put them in so I've just left it sir" excuse.
