Started re-assembling the "Croatian Cracker" after  bracing up the s/arm mountings and fitting a new battery tray to take larger battery needed for the starter motor.

 
Finally got round to insuring Jenny, Have spent too much money on her now for anything to happen. ?47 all risks agreed value, laid up policy.

Why fit a larger battery and have to faff around making a bigger tray to suit when you could have fitted a smaller but much more powerful LiPo ?

Had a spare old type battery in stock - can't afford to go splashing cash out on hi-tech equipment  ;) ;) - Regards - Phil

Covered 880SFK with plastic, in case the roof caved in from the rain, and bought 10 stainless bolts for it. Maybe I should name it: 880SFCK

Good move covering it, you just never know when it may be safe to activate it again...

Had a session of tantric motorcycle maintenance in the sauna today. Well, I usually call it a shed, but on a warmish day when the sun is beating down onto the colourbond shed, it turns into a sauna. I reckon I sweated about a litre. Bloody sweat was getting in my eyes and dripping off my nose. By the time I knocked off for the evening my t-shirt was soaked.

Apart from the feedback on the performance I asked you about any chance you could post or even send me a clip of it running so I could hear them too Paul? If possible thanks in  advance.  :D
