Talking Update...Dead Bike... No, SHE LIVES..... Hurray

My bike is dead, so rip out the old lump and have yet to find out what caused my rear wheel to lock up....
Cheers to Dan (aka WRC63) for your help and the mad grinding to make two engine bolt removers...21mm & 24mm sockets now castlelated.


check out the protective clothing...
Note the ear / eye defence all in one.
The safety gloves... Very protective....NOT
