Think they don't know what's happening with the weather, meant to be dry and sunny tomorrow, hope so as I've arranged a good run ;-)

Had a bit of a heavy shower this morning, but the skies have cleared and we've got bright sunshine here in Hertfordshire now

What started off as changing 2 clock bulbs, turned in stripping all the fairing , lights and brackets and ended with me touching up the brackets and various other painty type bits.... all back together now and I may go for a spin in a bit.... but as I write this, its started spitting again. :rolleyes

Just finished washing mine after a thoroughly enjoyable, but sometimes wet, four days in Ireland.

:useless

I made one of those once but I found that the bike just found it easier to spin on its center stand than the turntable I made ( admittedly it was just a couple of sheets of 3mm plastic bloted together with some grease in between)

I used a piece of ply as long as the bike, 1 x lazy Susan 300mm bearing which can take 450kg weight, 2 x small block of wood to chock the front wheel, 1 x offcut of ply, could upload pics or maybe a small vid if you really want to see, the challenge I had was the bike is only 4" smaller in lenght than the width of the garage, crude but works lovely

I haven't the room to spin a cat in my garage let alone a motorbike. Which is a shame as a turn table sound good, looking forward to the pictures.

The perfect way to twist & buckle a stand, tut tut.

I got a motorbike dolly skate thing off ebay that you put the centre stand on and you can move it anyware in my garage saves loads of space and great when space is at a premium

Here's some pictures, I said it was crude but it won't harm the stand and saves me struggling
