I regularly visit the site but don't necessarily post.

Moving from UK in four weeks, so will be on the look out for a car.

You may then get fed up hearing from me!

That's a nice looking project you've got going there. What bike is it, is it a BMW of some sort?

Where abouts in Clare are you Garythesign?

Cheers Rayzor ! Well spotted ! It's a 1973 R60/5 BMW. I've owned it 9 years this year so it's time to give it some TLC and give it
a going over. Prior to stripping it looked like this:

Hi Rayzor

We will be about 5km outside of Lisdoonvarna. So good for runs along the Wild Atlantic Way

Read your restoration of the Mk1. Looks great.

yeah weather and lurking it seems mostly, the forum's traffic numbers are up around 400 visits a day(!)

Also been busy with other projects... have had the rear subframe out of the Rover 75 tourer to replace both upper wishbones, remove surface rust/prime/underseal, rear brakes done, front wishbone/balljoints/bushing replaced, etc
MX5 hasn't moved much recently, plan on attacking that in the coming weeks in time for putting it back on the road in April.

Thinking caps on lads for the coming season ;0

I check in regularly, have been given some good advice, located parts etc due to this site, enjoyed real razors rebuild topic ( how did that finish? Was the lady happy with the results?)
What is the Facebook page , not being a great fan of Facebook but anything I can find on it seems well out of date

Project not finished yet. I still have a few niggles to sort out in particular a hunting idle that's driving me mad. Need a few bits like a black carpet as the one I got isn't good enough. I can't commit any more money to the project due to my work going bad. Could be out of a job so I have to be careful with my money.
