Tried to start mine for the first time in about three months, but the battery was flat 😶

Also noticed that my three month old tail pipes are rusty, buy cheap - buy twice... Looks like I'll have to get some stainless ones.

Well tomorrow I'm going to the local UPS depot to pick up a couple of heater channels that are there waiting for me :d

Managed to get a quick look at them today, but as I didn't have any ID on me, they would not release them. That and a small matter of the tax man wanting £23.88 duty :thumbdn:

Still, that hasn't dampened my spirits and once I get them home I'll get a couple of pictures posted up. Excited ? you bet !

Finally removed the cut and welded lowered front beam, and replaced it with the standard beam. Oh how much better it looks at proper ride height:smile: Also replaced King and Link pins. Next step MOT and black wing beading

Had a look at the postage details and they came from Columbia. Now I know why customs had opened the package and had a good look inside :roll:

Picked them up today and first impressions are good. Haven't had a chance to go over them closely yet, will do that tomorrow when George and myself get them out and go over them like a couple of children on Christmas Day :d

Will try and get some pics up tomorrow.

Has it been lowered yet? If it has, the bearings are probably running dry and you might be doing bearing changes on a regular basis... :wink:
