Better.... Not quite there, but better :)

First things first, Patches isn't sticking... After taking it for a shakedown, and being around the block once or twice, it's definitely a she, and unfortunately Patches is a he name.  This simply won't do!!  So instead, she's been named Stacey :)

Anyways onto business... as I've mentioned previously, I did have rear spacers coming to fill those hideously sunken rear guards... Ala these:


Bolt on spacers.  45mm's of them.  Yes, the offset on the wheels is that far off! Idea is they bolt onto the studs that currently exist, and provide a new set of studs on which to bolt onto the wheels.  Hideously illegal, and not as safe as bolting straight to the hub, but better and safer than slip on spacers at least. It's far from a permanent solution, but for the sake of saving some face, it will do until I can get some proper wheels :)

So... gone from this...


To this :)




As the title states... definitely better :) Not quite there, but better!
