    Arrow Slip On Can

    From One Extreme to Another.

    Guys, Thanks for the comments really appreciated. I guess I am old fashioned having started off in 1978 on and RD 250 B, where you had to lean to do things yourself. TBH I love laying a quality spanner (wrench) on a bike almost as much as riding one. My father was a huge help and...

    From One Extreme to Another.

    Hi Guys, More of an intro really, so here goes. When I brought the SP2 home and took her clothes off, that’s what I was faced with a daunting task to get her back to her former glory where she rightly belongs. The bike was minging.
