Oh the temptation to wreak havoc.

I got a phone call out the blue yesterday, could I look at fixing some bugs on a web site.

But not just any web site. A personal injury claims management companies web site.......

Ever the professional, I resisted temptation and fixed all that I can with the information they have given me. but one I cannot fix without more info when they are back in the office Monday.

Carb swap on the mrs EN500, and better exhausts fitted to the VF750F. Both running sweet now.

Temporary permanent end can strap on the zx6r.

Osram nightbreaker for the Gladius and a software update on the dab stereo in the wifes car. Quite a productive evening so far. Now onto a liquid top up for me!

Fixed an intermittent rear indicator fault on one side of the SV and sorted a loose rear indicator on the other side, then cleaned and reproofed my leathers.

Geo, I've got a 2 piece set of Dainese leathers I bought from a fellow orger, markmoto, back in 2010. Lovely, well made leathers they are too but a few of the crease points around the knees were starting to look a bit scuffed along with the grazes from a low speed spill the year before last.

I use this http://www.nikwax.co.uk/en-gb/produc...-1&fabricid=-1 for cleaning and this http://www.nikwax.co.uk/en-gb/produc...-1&fabricid=-1 for proofing/conditioning but this time I used some of this http://www.nikwax.co.uk/en-gb/produc...-1&fabricid=-1 in black to treat the scuffed and faded areas before using the spray on proofer.

I try and look after my leathers as I can't afford to keep replacing expensive bits of kit. I'd rather spend a little time, effort and money on cleaning/proofing materials and keep what I have in good order.

I tidied up and made space to start using this. Very good investment for the stable

Didn't quite get round to doing what I was supposed to on Friday, so maybe I'll get round to it this weekend instead
