How long is a piece of string Gary?
I have a few financial hurdles looming on the horizon, the biggest one being the Boyer CDI, and associated coil + rev limiter, then the 12 V water pump, and the 3 way thermostat gadget Iv'e been perving on that should maintain a constant temp, while not making the pump cavitate 'till the original (oops, I dont even have one yet) thermostat not opening might.
Ben James is working on a set of tyres for me, and Iv'e saved a quid or 2 for those.
a good friend from lalaland , Swiss (XL forum)has designed an exhaust for it , comming on strong @ 10.000rpm, and hanging till 12.000, if needed(actually, he's also found why the last engine struggled over 7.000 rpm too, but thats another story, and idea in the building))
I'm hanging out for the day it actually fires up, and if it does, and runs long enough to video it,,I'll be in heaven,,,and if it lasts more than 10 minutes,,it'll all be worthwhile.
But,,if it actually develops the power I am hopeing it should, and I convert that to a highly illegal speed test run on a quiet road out past Buggery somewhere, I can imagine the seat would suddenly become real uncomfortable, as my mansossy grows into something loosely resembling something thats eaten a little blue pill, and shouldn't have, 'cos basically, I'm weird, and since taking up semi permanent residence in the creation station, it's the closest I'm likely to get to real sex till I get some brownie points back

It seems Iv'e lost the plot, and spent the weekend cutting out paper dolls, er, well, body mock up with cardboard anyway.
I did manage to knock up a seat base though.
A question for the Reverend, and the doctor,,,,seing as my belly lays on most of the seat,and the seat lays over the tank,,, does that make it a belly tanker?

all I can hope is that that was the only colored cardboard for at least 500 miles , if it wasn't I'll be starting to wonder even more seriously about you T'fer.....
Jeez it looks good but hey I call the Rev Captain Cardboard because of his fab pasteboard fab skills , mate , you're right up there........
...few understand what I'm trying to do , but they vastly outnumber those who understand why..

AT LAST,,,the water has broken, she's in the labor ward, the kegs ordered, invitations are out, .
I suspect a LONG labor, and the birth should happen next sat.
