2 outta 3 ain't bad, as far as I'm concerned. I'll probably show up, if nothing else just to see if you guys can put back together what you took apart ^_^

Modrey,
It has been suggested that perhaps we do the work on your scooter this Sunday as well, depending on how much help we could gather together.
What are you feelings? or would you rather wait for a few more weeks?
Villa Angelo is still offered and available for a later date.

Uh, yeah that would be cool, I would have to check with my Dad though as he would be necessary for transportation. I also don't want to impose on anyone else's projects, especially as I offer so little in the way of assistance.

I will update tonight with what my Dad says, and everyone involved can decide then. I'm also fine with waiting, especially since todays 2 cm of snow makes it unlikely that I'll be riding anytime soon. :D

What days are your place available for?

Cheers
All hail Emperor Kang!

Hi Audrey,

You could drop off the scooter any time this week during the day if that helps. You could also leave it a while until your Dad is free to pick it up.

Right now the shop has two Ducatis, one BSA and an Enfield and none are mine!!

Awesome! I will let him know that, but as it is, he said it will be no problem for Sunday. Is this a go then?

I say YES but see if you can scrounge a few more volunteers to help out.
Some of us can work on your ride under the watchful eye of Doctor Vespa aka Johnny O- Crush :shock:

Sure it's a go. We will have at least four helpers. I'll be the good looking one!

Bad news boys and girls. Daylight Savings Time kicks in Saturday night. That means 9 AM is going to feel like 8 AM. I'll be there on time but don't worry if you are a wee bit slow dragging yourself out of bed.

So..upon loading my scooter on the truck today, I realized I have completely forgotten to pick up a battery for it. Is this going to be a huge issue? I do have the battery John used last time still, if that makes a difference.

Cheers

Having the battery would be nice and neat as your bike would be complete and ready to go at the end of the day. However, it is no big deal to put the battery in later. We can set up everything else no problem.

See you tomorrow!
