Finally got round to finishing off the Silver Scoot (see Showroom "Getting Ready For" ). Blue one goes off the road on Friday to get more goodies added.
I blame it on old age

Gave "Mr T" a quiet compliment :kiss: after almost being wiped out in a SMIDSY by a car full of old folk (eg. even older than me) pulling out of a junction. The TMaxes amazing brakes stopped me dead so I could give them a head shake.

looked at the rain running off it this waaay too early to be up on a Saturday morning and decided to take the car to the show I am attending today as all the stuff i have to take will not take kindly to it - RC models electrical bits do not take kindly to being that damp

Took a run through to Kilmarnock for a quick visit to "go full throttle" a dedicated piaggio dealership then washed the Sh300i down thereafter

Took my wheels in to the Harlow Yamaha dealer to have new Michelin Pilot Road 4 Scooter fitted, thought I'd try them instead of my usual preference for Bridgestone SC's... kind of hoping I don't regret it.

Went to do a front caliper rebuild realised I don't really have the right tools and gave up.

As it was not raining and my Progressive rear springs arrived I thought I would look at taking all the Tupperware off and have a go at fitting them. Went to the shed to get the tools and then the back decided I would not be playing today. Sat here hoping that it sorts itself out for tomorrow so I can have another go
