Robbie,
are you still keeping an eye on this site? I hope so as I am still awaiting your call re the 2005 seats that you said you would price up for me! I was hoping you would actually contact me with a price that would maybe as you put it "make it up to me" Still waiting!?

One thing I forget to mention - at least I didn't lie at any time about what was happening. I am sure we can make it up to you Martin |
Also I have been wanting to ask you a couple of things about my bike that have puzzled me since I collected it after its service.
Firstly, the exhaust is blowing like feck from the front cylinder pipe! Is this the gasket/seal you were waiting for which you since told me was fitted? The bike is popping and crackling on the overun and the sheer force of gas escaping is nearly enough to blow the bike over on its already precarious sidestand.
Secondly, what on earth was my bike cleaned with at your place? Whatever was used has removed most of the bronze coloured coating on the exhaust pipes that the MS have. There are bits of the coating left on in inaccesible places where whoever did it could not spray the acid or whatever they used! My bike was parked next to another Multistrada the other day and its owner asked me why I had removed the coating.
Also whatever was used has been splashed on a number of other parts of the bike and discoloured/damaged them. for example the timing belt covers have a multitude of cloudy white patches on them that will not wash or polish off. The cap on the rear brake reservoir is now white instead of black! Likewise the breather from the crankcase. The substance used has also left the black plastic wheel/tyre valve screw on caps white.
A mate of mine reckons that it looks like a very fierce alloy wheel cleaning solution as been used. This would certainly seem to be the case as I remember many years ago wrecking an alloy wheel on a car by leaving a similiar product on the wheel for too long.
Please please do not try to insinuate that I may caused this myself as I only use soap and water on the bike and wd40 etc for the wheels.
I will post some picture so you can see what I mean.
