Home Alone
 

Yep thats me, this weekend I shall be home alone... well not completely, the cat and fish are still there, but still on my tod.

Now I could just work on the bike and play xbox all weekend, but I figured I could do more. So who would like to pop over and say hi, I still plan on workign on the bike but some company would be nice. I can supply tea, coffee, cola, water (tap), squash, biscuits and maybe even a bit of cake. Now it would be nothing like the spread the Jax puts on, cus I'm a simple man. Then if you like we could even jump on the bikes and I can give you a little tour of Portsmouth, Cosham, Fareham, Havant, Hayling and maybe even Gosport.

Re: Home Alone
 

What sort of cake are we talking about here ?

Re: Home Alone
 

I might be able to manage requests... what do you prefer?

Re: Home Alone
 

Well, Im working sat night, so to do a 600 mile round trip.. I would have to be looking at a nice battenberg tbh, but the pink one not that common yellow rubbish obviuosly :D

Re: Home Alone
 

well grinch, if you do decide the xbox is a better idea, and you have GTA IV or bad company or project gotham racing 4, then i'm on xbox live under "alpinestarhero". Feel free to add me

I'd come along and say hello, but after thursday I wont have my bike for at least 2 and a half weeks......

Re: Home Alone
 

Whys that? Oh and no I don't have any of those, I hate paying the 'new' xbox game prices so tend to wait till I can get them cheaper, or second hand.

Maybe steal it off the little brother.

Re: Home Alone
 

Lol, well of course...

Re: Home Alone
 

You might be able to get PGR 4 cheap second hand, its been out a while so i think its kinda dwindled in poularity and hence price?

Bike going home while me and maria go to greece, I dont wanna leave it outside without me to check its still there every morning while we're away...so its gonna go keep my dads GSXR company, and tell the GSXR tales of riding bravery the GSXR could only wish for

Re: Home Alone
 

Well have a nice trip and I might keep a look out for PGR4.

Re: Home Alone
 

Ok, well feck that then, I'll come round when Jax is back!! :smt045

:D

Re: Home Alone
 

Does everyone talk to me cus I'm me, or only cus I'm married to Jax and out of politeness?

Re: Home Alone
 

Poor Grinch,

I am sure that both you and your wife are lovely.

However I am not allowed on the road yet by law, so although it would be great to go for a ride, I am afraid that I can't no matter how nice your cake and squash is.

Have a nice weekend though.

Don't forget though that there are many things you can do while Jax is away.
X-Box - :smt067
Music - :smt035
Stroke the cat - :cat:
archery - :smt063
Man's favourite - :toss:

Re: Home Alone
 

Well I have never met Jax, but if she puts on a better spread, I'd be more interested in visiting when she is supplying the nibbles!! 8) (you slit your own throat there dude ;)).

Besides, I am not sure I fancy the idea of being all alone with you in a confined space with no adult supervision/policing :shock: ... :D

Re: Home Alone
 

I might pop over on sunday, but I might be heading to the middle east somewhere for work. If I'm not dodging shells I'll try to come round for tea and man love... I mean cake...

Re: Home Alone
 

Ain't done that since college, but I need the equipment first.

Awh spoil sport.

Shells! That's a bit extream...

Re: Home Alone
 

So it looks like it might just be me and bear... Where is that video camera again...

Re: Home Alone
 

I'm at a big gay wedding on Saturday, so that's out of the question, but I'm free Sunday (so far).

Coincidentally.....

I'm due a 4000 mile service, and am considering DIY'ing it for the first time (ever , with respect to bike maintenance)....

Whats the chance of some "help" in that respect, if I bring an oil filer, some oil and.........

some CARROT CAKE!

Re: Home Alone
 

i too will wait till jax is back............. as i have heard about her spreads

Re: Home Alone
 

I'm more then happy to help, I even have a big oil catcher you can put your old stuff in. Its easy to do, though I don't have a oil filter wrench, I normally shove a screw driver through it which can be messy. Pick one up if you want, also do you have a belly pan?

Yep, it does seem her special spreads are favoured.

Re: Home Alone
 

This is a fantastic offer, however now my odds of Sunday tea and cake eating have quickly diminished

Damned house buying/selling.


Sorry Mr Grinchster, its going to have to be another time :(

EDIT - PS - no, I have fairing lowers. How does it make a difference with relation to an oil change?

Re: Home Alone
 

Might wanna take them off, to make access easier. Or possible at all; I cant rembmer if fairing lowers wrap right around at the bottom?

Re: Home Alone
 

Thought that was why, they do wrap around at the bottom, thats where they bolt together.

I've not had them off at all yet, so t'will be another learning experience.



In terms of changing the filter with them on.....no way. Even with Barbie-size hands and tools I can't see that happening

Re: Home Alone
 

Just means I bit more time to take them off to do the oil change thats all.

Re: Home Alone
 

I got Suzuki lowers on my Blue_ bike, you don't need to take them off to do a oil and filter change ... they are not joined underneath (i.e. a complete belly pan), so access to the drain plug is fine and you can get in the front to the oil filter fine too.

You really are simply generating work for yourself by taking them off ;)

Re: Home Alone
 

Thanks


You've alienated me by making me sound like I have massive hands and tools.



(But thanks anyway, I'll try leaving them on.)

Re: Home Alone
 

Cool never done the lowers before myself, only belly pans, though I'd just be there to assist and supply tools, lol.

Re: Home Alone
 

If they are stock Suzi curvy lowers, its not a problem ... I am not exactly a 'delicate flower' when it comes to hands!! :D ... so its no problem even if you are man-size!! 8)

Re: Home Alone
 

Ahar.

Yes, stock. No, pointy.

Re: Home Alone
 

I have a massive tool if that helps...?

Re: Home Alone
 

I should have read your sig shouldn't I, it says K7!! :D

I indeed have no idea about access on a pointy :oops: ... but I'd be surprised if you don't have any access ... take a pic :)

Re: Home Alone
 

I have matching massive hands.


Do you want to continue this conversation?

Re: Home Alone
 

I've been disapointed by your so called massive tool before.

Re: Home Alone
 

No problem, sigs are boring usually anyway.

I'll get a few pics when I can next.

Re: Home Alone
 

Well I can off you help another time, so just let me know. PJ and Jax might be there that time too.

Re: Home Alone
 

I might pop round ~16:30 on Sunday ... by that point all the hard work will be done and I can just eat the leftover cake!! :D

Re: Home Alone
 

He's not coming now... some silly excuse about moving or something.

Re: Home Alone
 

He prolly just needed to order up a new HD chain for his chastity belt before agreeing to spend an unsupervised afternoon alone with you and the bear!! :D

Re: Home Alone
 

I'm sure we can pick any lock that we might come across.

Re: Home Alone
 

Its all just considered foreplay to you pair isn't it!! :D

Re: Home Alone
 

Have you looked at bears sig???
