2014 prep
 
Another hour or so in the shed, slow progress at the moment, good job first race is two months away.

How's everybody else getting on?

Where's the photos Andy
Mine has stalled a bit as I get on with a couple of engine bits and also help Dallas sort his, which is almost finished

Might be 2 months to the first race but i'm going to loose half of that when I head back to Qatar for work and a bit of winter sunshine and warmth, and to get away from all this blooming water

All new regs stuff done, shock away for refurb and new spring, just got to get aluminium swing arm welded up to take 996 shock then it's just painting. By the way have we had final confirmation on the tyres?

Only lurk on facebook.

What's the benefit of using blog rather than forum?

The blog section is a dedicated area which has a lot more scope for editing text, adding pictures, formatting and that kind of thing.

Mild panic stations here !

Off to Cartagena soon, bike drop off is 15th Feb and the bike is in bits !

New tank to fit, airbox junked, battery to relocate, lots of fiddly shite to sort, then belts and valves to sort before it goes on the dyno.

New bodywork to fit.

Wiring looks like left over spaghetti and Kev is getting regular e mails asking which colour wire does what !

All in the hope of losing a bit of weight, but it looks like the only weight loss is me, from worry !
