The way its going I don't think I am going to have time to do my own bloody bike!


I'm helping a mate remodel his full downstairs after an extension being built and a wet room made for his disabled wife while also trying to do my own house and go to work at the same time!


Its never ending at the min  :(

Thanks, I'll look in a bit, I just need the 1250 cam jig instead of the 1200 and the 15mm tensioner collar to go with the other items.

At every turn I’m knocked down, bmw owner since April this year and what with everything that’s happened so far I’d gladly go back to Honda, can’t even spend money I don’t really have on the tools I need for home servicing ….

I am led to believe that at one point even the dealers was struggling to get the tools

I also heard they had stopped supplying the public and focused mainly on the dealers to get them stocked up

I'm not sure if this is true or what the hold up was but more than likely it will be blamed on covid!

As I say when I ordered mine they was on back order and took around 8 weeks to arrive

Not clear what these tools are for? Can you explain what they are used to fix? :?
