    Not bike related I know but...just wondered if anyone had a pair of road spring compressors we could borrow. MOT failure for a leaking front shock on an old 3 series necessitates a pair of new shocks which we're hoping to do ourselves if the right tool can be found.

    I've got a pair. Somewhere... I'll go check and let you know. They managed Land Rover springs, so I'm sure they can do 3-series springs!

    I have them - I'll PM/text you.

    No, it's for the 3 series of a son. I've got Richards now anyway.;)

    Big thanks to Richard for the loan of these:thumbsup: . Best result was Jeff did them by himself, while I was on the rideout Sunday.:) PS; Richard, I'll bring them back later today.

    Sounds like masterly absenting to me! The art of delegation is not dead. I'll not be around until 7pm or so. It'll be fine to leave by front door unless you fancy being savaged by my killer ninja dachshund again! I'm very glad he was successful. A good job jobbed!
