Chains? My machines have dry rubber bands to propel them along, it's a scooter thing

scoot in bits prior to 1st mot has left the garage in a bit of a mess ,so today its make a little list of plans to do to scoot this year and tidy up the work space and get a ride out if enough time .The wife has her own shed arriving today so she can also vacate my garage lol .

Just polished it

Air filter change and clean exhaust.... only the brake pads left and scoot is done (I am loving my office job in this occasions.. )
