Drama!!!!!!!!!
« on: June 11, 2010, 04:47 PM »

Todays been an eventful one.

took a ride up to school to crash in the studio with some mates for a bit and on the way back down my headset seized!

i could turn the handlebars about 3 cm eitherway so to limp it home

 it became a superbike with leaning for steering!

turns out the rack that has all the ballbearings in hasnt been greased once since it came out of the factory and pretty much disintegrated.

shoved a new one in and gone round the bike dissasembling and regreasing everything.

Suppose I should have known that a bike that hasnt been ridden in 4-5 years would have its moment eventually!


al :)
