Moving on.........

One of the things I did not like about my bike was the poor finish of the paintwork on the frame and other items, the rear brake calliper mount looked like it had been painted with a busted stick :shock:

It has now had the Premier Inn treatment and I think it looks a lot better

I like shiney \:D/
And with a bit of lubrication....

Result :D

bernie, didn't the staff at the premier inns / travelodges you were staying at wonder what was going on in your room when they could hear you polishing all night and finding empty tubes of solvol in your room the next day? :)

Hi Pookie,
No noise, I only polish by hand.
I would not want to cause any problems with the "Good Night Guarantee" for any other guests :)
Cheers
Bernie :)

No, the missus won't let me! (she has OCD, I think I may have caught it off her :oops: )

I do all the maintenance, decorating and gardening (including washing the windows and the cars, taxi driver and general dogs body).

What.....visions of me in a French Maids outfit with a feather duster [-X

PS. Did you see Ernest in The Black Hole the other night? .......Classic :D
