    Can't say mate but he'll travel the length and breadth of the country just to make a quick buck :eek:
    Sometimes he'll be gone for days/weeks at a time...tarmacing drives for old people and cleaning out their guttering :p
    Then after making a mess of the local football pitch or Sainsbury's car park he disappears with wads of cash and a newly acquired motorcycle :confused:
    Sound familiar???:p
    Be warned :eek: I think he's grooming some of the older forum inmates :p

    Luckily I’m the right side of the 1950s, or I might end up being groomed... eek!

    Hi Davie, the mention of 'grease' in this thread could well be misconstrued - see above.

    In the last few days I got a mechanic mate of mine to change the throttle cables on my trusty 3 year old Tiger 800. I never realised what a long drawn out job it was????? Whilst I watched & waited I changed the clutch cable too. Certainly the easier of the two jobs. it wasn`t as if the cable(s) had broke & they certainly wasn`t dry of lubrication as I always keep em lubed with 3 in 1 oil, but after 3 years & some 24,000 miles the throttle had become tighter to twist. The result of all new cables whether overkill or not is certainly measurable & smoothness has returned to both throttle & clutch action so I`m glad I have had the job done. Next I think the chain & sprockets need looking at after 24,000 miles of good service.

    So I got 2 days off and was looking at finishing the bike and possibly taking a test run then the weather happened

    60 mph wind rain hail and 1 to 2 degrees.
    I might have to eat crisps and watch films.
