Speedmaster Something For Nudger Part Three

You’re right....it’s a very educational and interesting thread.....KEEP OUT

 

Was in the garage earlier but wor lass called me in for Sunday’s dinner
Then got sidetracked by the first half of the rugby and then the Man City game
Taking the side rails back to work tomorrow to make some changes to the shape and the length
Doesn’t look like I’m gonna need the two mounting plates that I made
Pain in the bloody arse having all the gear I need at work but then having to bring stuff back home to try it on NUDGER
Time is on my side though as I don’t need this set up until me and wor lass go to the Isle of Man just after Easter

 

Reshaped side rails
Stuck again until I get back to NUDGER in the garage

 

Still can’t get over the quality of these top boxes
I’m now the proud owner of THREE of them
All right two of them will be side panniers but still chuffed to bits with them

 

I haven’t checked mate
Hopefully they’re all be different and I’ll have to colour code them
Boxed them back up ready to take them home tonight

 

Went in the garage
Big sigh .....just can’t be arsed with it tonight so I’m gonna watch Wolves against the scum/toon/mags instead

C’mon you WOLVES

Feck it I’m gonna have some Jack Daniels as well

 

So after taking a night off yesterday I’ve been back in the garage tonight for a few hours
Progress is being made
Don’t worry about the bolts
It’s all gonna get welded and the holes will be plug welded and when it’s all smoothed off with a lick of paint it’s gonna be fine
Besides when the top box and panniers are fitted you’ll hardly be able to see it

 

I don’t think so mate
Sort of lost enthusiasm this past week
Gonna try and get motivated again over the weekend and hopefully be ready for the final weld up next Saturday

 

I’ve been a tormented soul this week
Somebody’s been teasing me and getting my hopes up only to let me come CRASHING back to earth again

It can be a cruel world
