On another forum i offered a guy from Canada the use of one my bikes to use to go to the Isle of Man TT on, he took up the offer with some glee.
Now i thought the bike just needed a (once over) to be ready but, i have found several problems that have to be fixed before i hand the bike to him.
As time is short i am having to pay some one to do the work, £20 an hour plus parts, i sure wish i did a better inspection of the bike before i opened my big mouth.

Why do i have to thole these wood rantings, on the one hand i am not mariturient and on the other i am not ready for the nut factory. Tongue.
 
It's indeed a mystery. But look at it this way. Your bike is fine again and you can use it again to commute, save the fuel and earn the money back.
