Wheels 2013

Got to get ride! Breakfast, bikes, buddies and a beer @Namco. Cold but not wet! And even had the urge to paint my disks, good day :-)

Breakfast

Cold day on route to wheels day, 8/10 with a brew. You have to go a long way to beat a Rushmoor

You know this is the best tool in the box

When you go a Welding...

Covet thy grinder it is the god of tools for the welder..amen!

Old repairs....

Been hard at it repairing this 1960's GS150 (rare apparently). Had to make the horn tunnel from two! and repair the ally front hub bit!
Replace Filler with ally... after beating out old shaft!

Two new panels lovingly cut up to add 11mm  to make the front the correct height  (only a small amount of filler will be required)

Mustard repair

Ooooo, a bit of ally repair and mustard
