what's the need for the vent above ground level?

some appalling brickwork though

Here is the damage caused by dropping the bike before I made this ingenious device from a road sign.

Here’s what I did to one of mine while back-pedalling off my drive into the road. Missed the slope, dropped off the kerb and over it went. £2k's worth of damage! Couldn’t even pick the bugger up on my own.

That's neat, smaller than I was expecting.
I did a turntable thing a few years back for a disabled guy, who could drive his mobility scooter into the garage but couldn't bend his neck and whatnot to reverse out easily.
I got some WBP ply and went to my local Kwikfit with two squares of 1/8 steel, and got them to use a "retrieved" part . They welded it to the plates for me, free given the cause, and I screwed it to the ply.
Guess what the retrieved part was????

One of you will know instantly.....

Been there. Embarrassing, innit!
I helped a plod get his bike up once as a lad, in the days when they used big flat beamers. (Do they still?). I had a temp job in a filling station. Plod turned sharply up the steep slope at 0mph,, and over it went. Now I'd just take a picture and laugh...... Innocence of yoof.

Wheel bearing?

Wheel bearing?

No, they'd only change dud ones of those.....
This is something you don't really get on most bikes.....

That's a handsome bike, btw..

your going to have to say then because I could go right through the car

ha ha yes, I will post a pic when I get back. I bet people would pay for this. I know I would. It has cost me hundreds in repairs from dropping it on my drive. £20 and I could have avoided all this time

I've never owned a motorbike and I'm not good with spatial awareness. So please humour me! How does that small disc spin the whole bike? The wheels still seem to be on the ground.
