So the hub areas are plastic bagged up for the night and I’ll start again tomorrow.

theres no snow on the ground, get on with it
It’s not the ground I’m worried about... bolting wet disks to wet hubs, putting wet sliders into wet calipers snowflakes in the fluid reservoir etc. Not worth the problems it could cause when I can carry on tomorrow.

Maybe a future investment if you have no garage?

My Zed had it's MOT (easy pass

) and annual service this morning at my friends garage, only done 3200 miles in 12 months.
Fresh oil, brake fluid, coolant and filters so all set the spring and summer.
Also had a DLV back box fitted at the same time which is good fun.

Shame about the snow on it's first major outing this year.

Today I removed 2 front wheel bolts, and then put them back on

Went outside to try these 15mm spacers, but after the 2nd bolt the cold beat me, so now they are just sitting there mocking me.

Fitted a new starter.............not the hardest job in the world but various minor cuts as a result

Freed up sliders on the front brakes as I was getting steering wobble at 40mph, was thinking about painting the calipers but it was too cold, mananged to get it done before the snow started.

After a nightmare journey to collect I’ve finally got my CSL’s fitted! A little tight on the rear arches so will need some fettling but they’re on

had an expensive day...picked the motor up from the paintshop (yes in the snow - freshly painted and can't even come home and spend the day waxing and sealing!!

)

then managed to clear an airbag code with a new reader - nearly didn't work but thanks to a forum member i got it working..

swapped out the boot gas struts as they were rusted (got them from ebay, from germany for £23)

tomorrows jobs are to fit new badges and then maybe tackle the seat belt buckle switch...then it's in the garage on monday for race prep and mot..... *gulp*.... wife ain't gunna be happy....
