Quote:Got a mess from a riding buddy in our local mc club the other day asking if I could help break his old chain and rivet a new chain to his bike, so I did last night.

What do you guys think, was it premature to replace his front sprocket? You can still se evidence of cogs on it, not sure if it's still possible to count how many...  Smile

That grinding sound when he drove into my garage... I can tell you the old chain wasn't pretty either. 


Your mate is aware there is stuff called chain lube...right....shocking condition

And30ers,this is the type of bloke that fills my heart with joy. Proof that no matter how clueless and kack-handed my maintenance is,(and I could cite a number of examples) there are people out there who make me look like an automotive god.....

Removed Givi Monokey rear racks ready to get them shot last and powder coated, have to say the bike looks good with them?


Also removed rear hugger to clean and degrease, rear sprocket & chain...

Put the yellow one on the Optimate 

 

Now I've got to get the tyres changed over - old ones got an advisory on the MOT - so picked up an almost new second hand set of PR3's  for £60 the other week - came of a Mk2 with a blown engine - the bloke was breaking it

Using it for the winter hack Mick ?  Might be 2 yellow TDM's at Hockley, or 2 850's. Big Grin

Swapped a load of stuff onto from a newer bike, fecking knackering

 

It now has new Engine+ancillaries, Swingarm, Stand, footrests, Chain and sprockets and rebuilt front forks.

It's basically a new bike!




What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today? - TYREDNGRUMPEE - 18-11-2015

Lubed the shock top and bottom and the swingarm pivots while I waited for the cam belt to be replaced on my van.

 

In pretty good nick considering (42K).

 

Then I noticed this distressed little fella. Bello! Must be traumatised by my throttle twisting antics.

Likewise. Hoping to get out for ride with a friend tomorrow (He says we're going regardless of the weather, but we'll see).


Most of the time, this site is all that keeps me connected to biking and specifically to our TDM. What a sad situation.

Very true, I won't get to ride now until March. But the odd chat on here kind of keeps the biking juices flowing. :blush2:

Went to start it yesterday when I got home,  just to warm it up and put a bit of charge in it. Fat chance, flat as a pancake, stuck it on charge over night and ran it this morning for a bit, but I'm not going to get a ride in for a while I think. Confusedorry:

Wheeled it out into the snow while I put up my new LED striplights in the shed (600 LEDs), so I can see for some TDM TLC.

Did ya save a lorra wonga building yer own shed Favs ?  Thinking of building me one next year.



What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today? - alanfavell - 21-11-2015

Nope - probably more expensive at £350 for the timber alone - but I got  a shed made out of more substantial timber, screwed together not nailed , demountable when required, the size I wanted with the features I wanted too, such as staging to get the welding gear/compressor/toolboxes etc. accessible but not in the way, a full -length (10') work bench, double doors, 6'4" minimum head room, shelving right round the shed at eye-level, no windows and the whole thing looks like a gingerbread house from Hansel & Gretel..................
