it was bad enough assembling the gantry and getting enigne out all by myself....
No wonder you haven't been too good! You should give a shout when there's a job like that to be done, some of these monkeys will do anything for a piece of cake! |

Why didn't you shout for some help ya big numpty! Don't go doing yourself any more injuries mate.
Hey, how about taking some pics of the Nippi & doing a quick write up on it? -I'm assuming it's a Nippi disabled trike?

ok then, what you doing saturday? only joking yes its a "roll your wheelchair in the back" nippi. the rear n/s wheel bearings knackered, headstock bearings loose/knackered, tailgate return spring broken, brake shoes/pads worn....and what ever else i find, just to get it back on the road. the engine has been worked on by someone at the bottom of our hill (ricky knows who that would be) but since then it doesnt start very easily. it used to start at the touch of the button but now it takes ages and flattens the battery....that certain mechanic then sold her a new battery and fitted it inline with the original!!!! now it just takes longer to run down!!! |

I've never seen one without it's bodywork -what's hiding under there? Bike engine? Chain drive or shaft? What's the rear suspension off? What sort of frame has it got? Now's the time to take some close up shots for the write up you're going to do for us mate.  |
