Iāve only just seen this topic. Sorry to hear, George.
Hopefully itāll get sorted, but be honest, itās likely that she was sabotaged by the (jealous) Riot for not taking the Ducati to the BCR too often. :hehe:
more like the riot gave it some kind of infection from sharing the same lock up:w00t: i can picture the riot injecting the duc with some of its oil while it sleeps:D
I just caved in on the leathers. I told LTT this morning to get on wivāem. I shouldāda toldāem to sendāem back. Iāve really got the a$$ about it to be honest. Ultimately I took a gamble. They said itād take 2hrs which I laughed at (right Mr Chunky? ) @ Ā£50/hour. Plus they have the materials to add to that clean then recover the top layer of the leather in 3 colours. So about a wunna was always gonna be a steal.
The thing that gimme the a$$ is that I had to book them in for 1 month later and they were to take about 1week. I have shipped them as agreed, in fact they was there early, a week has gone and they say that theyāll be at least another week (prolly the early pary of the week after)
Shut it Chunky! (:D:D:D )
I have also just put the phone down to ProTwins. They not to sure that the valves were done in Jan 08 cause theyāve snapped one bolt trying to get the valve covers off!
I have toldāem to survey the job before they go throw £££ās at it. Iāve askedāem to check pistonās and bores plus valve guides-nārings whilst it apartā¦
Dont joke about fellaās, when I got The Riot back together after being off the road for so long earlier this year, the fuggin thing tried to kill me before I even got it out of the garage! I was squatting by the bike holding the handle bar as I tried with the other hand to lower the telescopic motoX stand itād been on for all those months. But the stand had never collapsed low enough for The Riot and to get the bike on and off required a bit of a lift. The new forks I fitted to get The Riot up and running again are slightly longerā¦yep, as the stand collapsed the blinking bike tired to friggin crush me!!!:crazy:
So its more than capable off mullering the 900ss:D
