        They're all finished lol, the Yamaha Thundercat is my daily driver, the other bike is an '89 Kawasaki KDX200 that I bought as a total wreck and rebuilt over the past year on a shoestring into a road legal toy.

        It's insured, I'm just waiting on the new registration from the DVLA so I can get a numberplate on it.

        The golf cart isn't mine, it belongs to work and it's constantly in a state of almost broken.

        All my shit lives at work because I have nowhere to park at home [emoji14]

        I can't get away with unfinished projects laying around, Sally'd make me sell them!

          Tell a lie, today of all days the DVLA were actually nice enough to post me the V5 for the damn thing. (It's been 5 weeks)

          First time commuting home under it's own power and it didn't blow up!

          It doesn't look very different to a year ago but most of the last 30 years of bodges have been set right. Now it has luxuries including brakes (after a fashion), a working engine, an electrical system, fork seals that are not made of electrical tape, actual spacers on the front axle, etc. etc.

          I could do a whole thread on the bodges on this thing alone.

          Maybe I should stop buying old POS vehicles out of the back of barns...

          Sally, bless her, was nice enough to let me strip it and rebuild it in the middle of our tiny flat over christmas.

          Or, to be more accurate, she went away for a week and I snuck it up the stairs...

          While we're off-topic, here's dog demonstrating my previous build project, a monowheel trailer:

              Incredible. Absolutely love the dog trailer. For taking the dream with you while the van is out of commission.

              Keep going with the T4!

                Odd, we have a very similar garage,

                I've a road legalised enduro kwaker - KLX250D1 - bored to 300 and running most of a 2002 KX chassis

                A restored FZR thou

                And a T4

                Your Sally is more understanding though.

                    Maybe, but your sally's tits are fantastic (if the drawing is to be believed) so it's swings and roundabouts really.

                      There really isn't anything I can say at this point that won't get me further into trouble so I shall stay quiet...

                        Just spotted you are a local bud - the van is a long way from home though, any idea how it ended up down here?

                          Erm, I have no idea how it got here to be honest, I only know the previous owners who are local too. I'm the 11th keeper so it's presumably got about a bit.

                          How do you figure it's a long way from home?

                              You know, I never considered looking that up.
