I am so busy at the moment, with work, the Campsite and moving house with daughter no.1 over the past few weeks and then daughter no.2 in a couple of weeks time  :dl_hyperhysteria:

No time at all to play bikes  :bawl:

That said, I did take the first seven layers of crud from the Swingarm before it gets removed. Also played with my new Parts Washer  :smirk:

Without that CJ the V-Strom is no longer at the back of my house I've noticed a big reduction in the number of spiders in my house this summer…
