Oh woe is me too. not brilliant weather until the fog lifted but then I got myself in a quandry (sp?)

With the GS languishing in a workshop near Melton Mowbray racking up fekkin scary repair bills ( what bags of shite BMW make), the Bird has been used in all weathers this Winte. After a quick blatt yesterday afternoon,, today it was time for a service. Oil, plugs, filters and a thorough clean down was the order of the day but first it was a quick run out to the Peaks to warm the oil up. Nice out there but fekkin traffic :banghead)

Home, then a good wash and hose down before rjning onto the bike lift. Panels off and by the fekk what a mess :shock) So, this is going to take some time, the front wheel is off, the calipers need a good fettle, salt fur in abundance and the radiator is covered in mud and really needs to come off for a soak and clean. Fook, I aint even got to the back end yet , :bigcry:
