Class A rebuild for 2010
I found an old 620 racebike in my garage tonight so have got a full rebuild program planned for the next few months:

Broken clip-ons - buy new ones
Broken rear-sets - buy new ones
Oil + filter - change
Scuffed leathers - gaffa tape
Almost new Diablos - pay Chas for them, then throw away and replace with Far Eastern liquorice
Bent exhaust, scratched tank, seat and fairing - drink Magners until it looks ok
2010 DD - send cheque to ACU,New Era and DSC

Easy innit

Can we race yet?

Paul

15th year in DD #68 and getting slower by the year

1199, SS800 & 620SSie DD racer

Lol, easy re-build. The magners will be the expensive bit waiting to go racing again.

As Craig hints at
Its probably cheaper to get them repaired
either that or avoid the garage until a week before the new season starts then start drinking the Magners

It's not the size of the dog in the fight that matters, but the size of the fight in the dog.
