found out how many issues there are while working on a bike by yourself, here's a few
find out your paddock stands been nicked 1000000's of balancing issues cos your by yourself your lounge floor isnt perfectly level sv thous are a big and heavy barsteward your tool collection is missing 6 vital peices including but not ristricted to rear wheel nut socket, half decent jack, jedi powers you dont have a abba stand your plan needs rejigged multipule times genrally while your balancing the bike ,smoking a fag, and undoing a bolt all simualtainiusly the zaust sensor is a fecker to get at mr suzuki obviously doent use grease anywhere , ever removing a thou exhuast is the kyrpton factor removing the front forks makes the kyrpton factor look like childsplay you shouldnt really start straight after a 12 hr shift at 7 am especialy when youve got another 12hr shift at 6pm that evening also your wife may leave you for , the state of the lounge as it looks like a motorcycle and tools bomb has went off inside the fact there is oil all over her house youve nicked her safe to use as a engine prop (with everything still in it) the police may come round thinking youve killed her due to the neighbours "hearing suspisous noises" and your language or the fact youve to do the same to the 650 in the kitchen before friday and havent told her (but with less prop worthy instruments so it looks like her new garden set may be butchered ) as you can see just small issues , but zaust is now off as is front forks dave p.s anyone got a spare bed as the wife is about to take me for every thing i own |

probably best to go easy on the bevvies if you want to get anything done
![]() I like the way when you are holding something in place and looking for your spanner/socket/hammer, despite the fact that you have not moved since it was last in your hand, it appears to have scuttled accross the room/garage and hidden under a rag ![]() |

I'm an absolute bugger for putting things down then instantly forgetting where I put them. Lots of profanity normally ensues whilst I look for said item. Rinse and repeat till I've put myself in a mood.

Hmmm...deffo have a headstock stand (bought one the other week), sockets go up to 32mm but I do have a 36mm oil filter socket that'll do the top yoke nut on a Gixxer yoke.
The castle nut socket could be butchered from a normal socket (not one of mine ![]() Bringing the stand etc would mean a trip in the car, which means the missus is more than likely to want to tag along, which means I'll swap some Nobbylass nagging ear plugs for your anti DavePreston swearing ear plugs! Might have chance 1st thing on Friday morning....will check with the boss and pm you. |
