Made the most of the good weather today. Gave her a good wash and fitted some stainless bolts.
These are for the front mudgards & the mud flaps, that lot cost me £1
Stainless bolts for the switch covers,
And for the water pump, which cost 50p for both lots
Some pictures of her looking nice and clean.
I then went out for a little ride, 45 mile round trip. The picture below is Booth Wood Reservoir between Oldham and Halifax down at the bottom of the dam.
And a view from the other side.
The Airspin jacket is well worth the money on days like these. _________________ Gilera Fuoco 500ie

Any good hardwear shop will sell them and they are much cheaper than purpose built kits etc like you see sold all over the place...
...just make sure you get marine stainless, not just normal stainless or the first winter salt will make em go manky |

Local tool/hardware store "Rothwells". When you go in for just a few like that, it costs them as much to do the triplicate sale reciept, so they just say give us 50p or a £1
I used the same place when I got stainless bolts for the Runner, they were on for a couple of winters and looked good as new just washing them with the scoot. _________________ Gilera Fuoco 500ie
