Also if you dirving with the trailer just make sure your licence covers you to as the automatic addition to licences changed a few years back so you have to now do a test in order to be able to tow if you passed a certain date!
Where is the bike and put pics up when you have it - do like the old ZXR!
Your allowed to pull a trailer when the trailer and vechicle are less then a combined weight of 3.5 tonnes anything over that you need a C1 licence as far as i am aware…
I’m so damn excited. I’ve got a list of things I want to do to it a mile long.
First thing will be to restrict it and get it on a dyno so I can get a certificate, MOT it and get all the paper work sorted out.
Then I’ll start the rebuild. Paperwork comes first so I don’t have to faff about later.
Getting it done while the bike is in one bit will mean once its built back up, I can ride to the OMC to get tyres fitted, rather than use a trailer or van.
The list of jobs to be done will be posted with the build thread
I’ve got a manual thanks to mum, model specific manual supplement thanks to dad as well as a trip to Cardiff.
It’s a lovely feeling to be here.
It’s taken me a year of withdrawing my entire paycheck in cash every payday to save enough to be able to afford one. (The joys of working part time on minimum wage)
I’ve been doing this for two years but the first year was to pay for insurance.
I’ve even skipped meals to maximise my saving. (Not that you could tell :w00t:)
XD i was there the outer day hehe best of luck and have fun pal btw the seven bridge on the m4 charge a toll not sure if they charge on weekends but its £6 something for cars
Well done mate. It’s good to read about someone properly earning something they deserve, instead of all these stories about people that want/expect things to be handed to them on a plate.
You can fit tyres yourself buddy, just give me a shout and we’ll do it. But you do still have to go see matt to get your wheels balanced… If, unlike me, you bother balancing your rims
Good luck buddy, really looking forward to see the build thread.
