Your DD bike - have YOU prepped it?

AK · 20-Dec-2005, 23:23

Or not?

Just made me think, cos AK now involved in assisting to prep another 2 x 583's.

Truth time lads

Ours done all by AK (and meeee! - I do the 'taking things apart bit) except the fairing painting.
AK is perfectly able to do them himself tho - its just that Andy wanted to 'share' in the work too

Even dialing in the cams FWIW. Should have some pics of the build to post soon, All powdercoated and shiney new.

Hmmm - well it's a 'team' effort here I think with some mechanicals subbed out. Most of the work done in my living room as I have no garage.
We're having a Team bike prepping weekend on 21st Jan here - Curry and Beers Included

Not sure how it will pan out throughout next year though with 3 bikes and my 'other' plans

NBs996 · 20-Dec-2005, 23:57

I've done a few bits, but nearly all the work is done by PeteB cos that's how our setup works...

I'd be quite happy to do it myself, but - a) Pete's infinately better than me with a spanner, b) I don't ask him to ride it for me, c) it's his bike!

Seemed to work a treat this season - we finished 5th mainly cos the bike was so well maintained, well oiled and didn't miss a beat all year. Think we'll stick to the same format for 06 and another top ten should be achievable

All 3 of mine are done by me apart from Extreme painting the shiney bit and some bloke in coventry who is doing the engines.
Got a stack of tote boxes all labelled in the barn which i will be working my way through over crimble,cleaning ,checking and sorting for zylon coating and painting.
All 3 frames away being painted ,chris is making 2 new fuel tanks,bodywork for the sport is away being modded to include acu bellypan .
Just wish i didnt have all these bl**dy parcels to deliver!
