Re: Servicing Costs

I bought my SV650 from them and asked for a service when I bought it.. they never even did the oil.

Check out how much plugs are, I used to get mine for about £20 a set. Also find out how involved it is to get to the back two cylinders, it may be a half day job for an amateur

I was a bit emotional when I left, he'd mentioned a future meet which surprised me but I didn't imagine I'd get to meet him again. I'm just glad he enjoyed himself, even if it would have taken its toll on him.

Sofa..?? Hell, I can barely get out of bed.

20-mile road ride on my MTB planned for this morning....which might be interesting, as my right hip has been bugging me on even the shortest rides for about a week.

Re: What are you doing today ??

Off to work again… production has been stable since last swing so redundancy has slid yet again. Might even still be flying out early next year at this stage 😩

Cat 1 cyclone just hit the platform a couple of days ago too, they are usually good for a plant upset, but the place just kept on pumping.

Nah, way too cold in Tassie and even if they offered it, I’m well over flying away for work or doing shift work.

Been watching the tank today, one of the gourami is chasing and killing the guppies. Between that and the ich outbreak, that I'm sure they brought, I have 1 left out of 10.
