I go kingston uni aswell so might see you around.

Today i've done hardly anything, gave the bike a once over and bolted the horn back in place, bikes all set for another week of riding

Put stereo on in garage

Removed fairing lowers to fit Stebel Magnum Horn

Swore at original horn bracket mounting bolt which was seized solid

.

Adapted existing bracket to take new horn.

Fitted horn (should give the MOT man a nice surprise

)

Struggled to get plastic pop rivets out to refit fairing lowers using screwdriver

Extracted screwdriver from palm of my hand

Raided first aid box for antiseptic wipes and dressing

Had a cup of tea and put bike away - oil change can wait till next week now.

I actually did do something productive today, broke a perfect streak

Put my TL1000 clipons back on, now the bike fits through the garage door.

I got up and went to work and spent most of the afternoon doing paperwork. I then came home and here i am now with the next 2 days off.

Tomorrow im going to sort out stuff to put up in the loft and fit new indys to the bike in time for its MOT on Tuesday
