Does look good 😃

Bumpers? I meant cycle wings......

Ha, that is so bling. Good colour match to the bumpers.😃 Did you know the RAL code or did you have to scan it?

Crikey what a pain. That sounds like hard work.

Crikey 6 weeks, good luck for then. At least you know what to expect 😀

Got a few coats on and rubbed down with 240 grit in between. 😀 Getting there.

With it being nice and warm and no rain in the forecast I pulled out the chassis and stripped all the front suspension off ready for paint. Got it all rubbed down and cleaned In primer, looks good in grey. The plan was to go Nardo grey and that was when nobody knew what it was. Now...

What a joke that would really anoy me if you have already sent in the evidence and they are asking again. Last time I scanned all the invoices in and created a huge pdf and copied that and all the build photos onto a CD ROM and popped it in the post. You say it is all online now or can you...

Hi Alan, same for me exactly. My inverter will only give me 90 Percent in all tried and tested conditions, it will never produce what it is rated at. Probably the same for most engines etc, my ST170 eg, probably one of the Zetecs that cane out of the factory once did come close to that figure +...

Thats pretty interesting Alan, just looking at your daily average 4453 kWh / 265 days since installation = 16.8 kWh per day. I think I remember you saying that your array was 10kW and mine is 2.5 and today was a good day, double figures. If we had the same sun you could be looking at 4 times as...

It was a shame to miss out on that export, not a great start. September was good, after October you really loose the elevation. The panels need to be vertical in the winter compared to summer when they need to be flat on their backs. April has been good, the increased daylight plus the...

Oh no so when you put your solar installation in it was 6 weeks before they would pay you for any export... At least you could use it during the day and charge your batteries up etc. It is annoying that they charge you 50p per kWh of usage but pay you a tiny amount to feed into the grid which...

Oh no Alan you have started me off on a rant now... You pay them half a bag of sand and that is their response... With all the BH in May your 12 working days will be in June sometime when they process it with a test date in August. What a joke, it's almost like they receive your application...

Air filter and back plate turned up today, wanted to get it on to check it fitted ok as the ST170 has bigger inlet ports compared to the blacktop.

O/S rear arch fitted, just adding the P profile trim to the N/S rear wheel arch. I fitted some stone guards, with the Freestyle it is amazing how much rub is kicked up by the front wheels...😀 Good fun, nice to have a few days on it with the BH weekend.

Got the 20 odd holes drilled for the boot cover. Forward section is captive and secured with screws and riv nuts and the other end has press studs fitted. Just adding the holes for the harness bolts and then stripping everything off now it has warmed up for paint. Just need to get the holes...

Hi Alan, did you get a IVA test date yet? Hope they get back to you soon 😀

Hi Alan, motivational speech I am afraid, you need one with all this talk of selling your project mid build....😀 You are the only guy I know who has passed the IVA 1st time. I think a lot of it is the questions you are asked and the response you provide, they are trying to find out whether...
