Well done dude, but how are you making money? I've been doing this for just over a year, and I'm charging R100 for a wash and lube-no call out fee. I can't open your pricelist...
The best Bakkie I have driven is an old Chevy El Camino...Can't go over 80km/h so no problem of it falling off the road... There is no replacement for displacement.
It is legal, however for road racing its not ideal, if you need to push your saddle that far forward then your frame is too big... Unless you are doing a bit of road racing and a lot of tri's then its fine...
I'm sorry but I also made the same example and everyone went off at a tangent so I'm not directing anything at anyone I'm just saying lets not forget the title of this thread... but its now heading off at another tangent so I'll leave it here...
Don't take offence but because you can't really get spares for them, unless you (or someone) has a stash of spares, I don't think you could get much for them...
Ya its an ongoing battle, Coolheat don't wan't to upset "their" shops by selling direct so they point you to the same shop that can't (couldn't be bothered to) help you so coolheat wind up getting the bad name, instead of saying no problem, we'll just send the part to the shop wether they like it or not and sort the problem out...
the more grease the better... the bearings do nothing its the peice of plastic that does all the hard work... the plastic peice is there to try and keep cr@p out of the bearings...
Ya the FD settings will be out as the whole chainline is out...Makes me wonder how they (couldn't have) fitted the plastic cap to preload the bearings...
Jeez I'm sad I missed it but spent time at home with my new son who was discharged from hospital on Sat morning... Well done to all, And to Summit - watch me next year! I'm coming with a BIG stick... haha. Well done dude, and well done Dobby was it your 1st 24?
It is a no win argument, but I'm just having a say...I know first hand that nothing is for free, but I guess it blows my mind that someone (and not just doctors) can earn more, from one client/patient, than I can earn in 6 months.
Just reading back, yes doctors work long hours, and sometimes when qualifying in some dodgy places, but so do a lot of us, as an appy I had to clean out the used oil sumps in the workshop, sweep the floors before and after work, get covered in clutch and brake dust (itches like a MOFO), as well as pulling a few 18-20hr days - especially when I was restoring classics...
