    Never rush a job !!!!

    Got my new BT45's delivered (I was like the cat with cream) booked in at the garage to change the rubber delivering the wheels to the garage at 10:00. Sh#t look at the time rush out to the garage rear wheel on the paddock stand and use a jack to get the front off. Managed to get the front off and in the back of the car. The rear proved to be a bit#h, eventually off down to garage late....

    Phone call tyres ready at 16:45

    Had dinner dive out to the garage front wheel on ..... where's the spacer ..... ahhhhhhhh .... can not remember taking it off

    Check boot no not there, hopefully in mechanics shop ...

    Moto of the story, rush the job and its bound to go pear shape

    Gutted I was soooooo looking forward to a early morning spin

    That was lucky.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE
