    I sort have have a shed and no garage. I have been planning to get a big shed but it's just another thing I haven't got around to it yet. Hoping to move soon so I may hold fire with a shed for a while.
  3. I only use Rock Oil Guardian for gearboxes. Castrol power 1 for 2 stroke.
  4. North Nottingham - A6 to Matlock baths South Nottingham - A60 to Loughborough East Nottingham - most roads into Lincolnshire Loads of good roads around this area.
  5. Good on you Grouchy. I know you can do it.
  6. Hi and welcome to the forum. You may want to pop along to the new members section which can be found on the first page or via this link LINKY. People get much better answers to questions once they have said hello. Just tell us a bit about yourself. I have never owned one of these bikes but they do seem popular. Low seat, big bike looks and most spares seem to be available. Don't expect too much speed, but with a cruiser, that's not the point anyway.
  7. Excellent picture Ian. Mine is the Suzuki one, not the MZ version. I do love the MZ sort of pinging noise the engine makes.
  8. I have had the cover for nearly 3 years. It has faded in parts and the bottom is starting to fray due to rubbing on the ground. It is not now 100% waterproof but still holds nearly all the rain off. It has 2 reinforced holes at both the front and rear and I use the rear to put a chain through, via the rear wheel and ground anchor. I use a short U lock through the front holes to secure the front, via the front discs. If I leave the front lock off, it can blow off the front but that is due to my laziness rather than anything else. There is also a belly strap. It is good, thick, quality with a rear reflector, 2 vents and a part inner, soft, lining to protect some of the bodywork. Well the one I have does. I brought the cheaper Oxford one for the TS recently and this is nowhere near the quality of the Motrax one. I would buy another one when this gives up the ghost but I expect that it will be good for another couple of years. I don't put the cover on as soon as I get home. I wait until the bike has cooled. Brought new from fleabay. Hope this helps.
  9. Rather than a canvas one why not look at something inbetween? I have 2 different covers; a Motrax deluxe and an Oxford Aqualux one. The Motrax is very good quality and a lot better and heavier that the Oxford one. Linky to the Motrax one here (if you go for one, make sure you get the right size) LINKY
  10. Thread locked. Posted in the wrong section.
  11. Not really Andrew, the the normal rubbish I come out with. That was very deep. Actually a very interesting pick of a name.
  12. I have moved it. I think this post would have been better if you had asked for it to be moved. Lets hope I don't start hitting that "Remove" button. Cheers Jason. Mistakes will happen. On my bike, the spanner goes on the seat.
  13. I really wanted to be called "Mongo the Merciless"
  14. Hi and welcome to the forum.
  15. The first thing I would do, before I spent any money on them, would be to apply for the log books. A letter will go out to the current owner saying that you have applied for the log books. It the small print says that they can recoup their money by selling them after a period of time you should have no problems. He may show some interest so I would do that first .
  16. Happy birthday from me too.
  17. Hi and welcome to the forum. Sitting in sunny Nottingham as I type.
