| Hey Porky, how you doing mate. It must be 10 years. Pop round for a beer some time. Uncle Brian said you still have a Gixa mate, and Rob was saying its well arse up in the air ha ha. I bumped into Ada in the petrol garage a while back on his Wheet-a-bix Gixa with his daughter on the back. Good to hear from you matey. Oh and get some pic's of your ride on here mate. They are a top bunch of lads on here and a fuckin good crack, visit the terrorist free zone mate, it will have you in stiches. |

I have to get some stainless down pipes and get the engine painted before I loose the spastic plastic mate, the zorsty bits are rusty as fuck, and although the grunt is not in bad nik I still want it painted first. Rob gave me Barry's mobile number and I sent him a text asking if he was up to do the paint job on my Blade, but I've not had a reply yet. Give Rob a call and get my mobile number then give me a call and we'll arange a time mate.
I have been doing a bit more to the bike today and I'll post some more photos in the next day or two. |

Remember those little infill's I made from the broken side panel? |

Well to mock up the little dears I blu-tacked them to the bolt that holds the sub-frame from rocking, not the best way to mount them but only temporary. |

I tried all sorts of ways to mount them, I made little L shape brackets to fix them down to the sub-frame, but always the angle they sat was wrong.
I welded them to the seat plastic, and they snapped off really easy, so I decided to leave them for a while and get on with other things untill the old grey sludge came up with something better.
And last weekend it came through, the old grey sludge not the ruby murry I had the night before, well it did actually, but it more followed through than came through after a coffing fit. |

I found with the blu-tack I could get the infill's to sit at just the right angle, so I mixed up a dolop of fiberglass compound and daubed it on the petrol tank just behind where the panel wills sit.
I sanded the tank back to metal and roughed the surface first so the compound got a good key, then applied a little to the back of the panel to make sure it had got a good contact, then pushed it on to the blu-tack. |

Both sides need doing but I thought I would wait untill the first side had gone off before I did the other so it did'nt get nudged out of position.

I reinforced the back of the panels with a bit more fiberglass compound just to add a bit of strength.

Time to start filling.
I like to use a mixture of cream cheese, Vim and V05 hair gel.
I prefer Philadelphia cheese because I do, but you can use what ever you like, coz I dont care.

Once you've given it a lick of paint you will see the head of your robo-bat transformer start to take shape.
Its important you follow the instructions to the letter if you dont want the Deceptorcons to bubble what you are up to. |

Now all you have to do is fit it back on your bike, and when your mates come round pretend that's what you were gonna do all along.
