As an aside, anyone know what these are worth? Bianchi purchase, if the Bianchi is pretty enough, may force sale if Wednesday doesn't go according to plan .....Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

Even better than scrummy mummy blonde mummy at school who gives me the giggles every time she smiles......... she was well lovely today.
As an aside, that mummy has been replaced by ridiculously hot yummy mummy, who, apart from being drop dead gorgeous, has, unfortunately huge feet.
I have, originally enough, nicknamed her "Plates"Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

This is like Brian's novel in Family Guy.0

Cleaned and polished today, will get some new piccies tomorrow as the only one I could get to work on the computer were well jeffy.
Looks a lot smaller than I remember it ......Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

I can't see that picture.
Hang on, think I fixed it:
Is that the wonky brake? I thought you'd fixed it.0 -

Top stuff - grazie tanto.
no - that's the badly set up non wonky rear brake that hasn't been set up because the bike has been sat in my garage under a pile of clothes and a lawnmower for year.
I may indeed go and sort it now. Then again .......
How did you fix the picture? How do I make the other pictures small enough to be downloaded to the photograph programme?Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

All done and adjusted. It can now gather dust with its rear pads in the correct place.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

Cheers Garry - I love the crud covered tub which will soon be disposed.
By soon I mean in about 5 years when it next comes out of the garage or before if I sell it to Andycp to finance the Bianchi. Or some schizer around th house that TDV thinks the money will be better spent on.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

Beautiful! Very jealous.
Love the Rev X.
Did you get it resprayed - if so where?0 -
Thank you very much - he looks much better in the sun (the white and purple are pearlescent, the green is a really nice soft lime green).
The chain, cassette, saddle and few other bits on him now are also new zero mileage so add to a tad of bling to it all.
Not re-sprayed at all - all original - there are a few chips on him - I may well do up the lime green ones and the EMC logos redone when my brother comes over as he is a dab hand (no pun intended) with a paintbrush but apart from that I'll just leave it - not going to affect resale value too much and to tell the truth, I'd prefer to get his stem unseized before doing small jobs like that.
He's also got matching Elite cages as well.
Have a spare Rev X rear as well hanging on the wall. I used them on my s/s (which is why the tubs are so dirty) and they roll really nicely for something that is decades old.
I'll take some new pictures against a plain wall (hopefully this will make them fit into the MB limit on the photo host) as soon as it stops raining.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

Nice fence as well. Edwyn's?0

Narurellement - only the best in these parts of the valleys, see.
Slabs are now immaculate following two pressure wShes - I think that piccie was taken during the winter months (September to July) therefore explaining why they look like Imposter's teeth.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

Is there any way I could make this bike fit me? Shorter stem or something?0
-
If I could post the rest of the pictures you'd go on the rack to fit him - limit on his hosting is 12MB, all the piccies are 13MB and above.
Any idea on how to reduce?Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am
