Does this just clean them or does the sand also remove the original plating. How long in the mixer roughly.?

They look very nice. Do you do any prep work before sending them for re zincing.

What a nob. Changed everything over onto the new wheels. Put them in and finished off and then noticed I hadn't put the rear hub to sprocket carrier D ring in. Tomorrows another day, back out it comes.  :)

Simply because there will be a large sudden increase in the number of vehicles that will not legally require a Mot and will continue to increase every year.

You can never have too many ties . :)  The welding should be ok the amount I've done over the years . I've seen better but far more worse.  ;)

They do not need a legal mandate. It would simply be in their terms and conditions to have one, and if you want them to insure you then it is up to you to meet their terms and conditions or seek insurance elsewhere.
Enthusiasm does not mean someone can necessarily do a job. You only have to see some of the very basic questions asked on forums and that's by those who bother to ask. How many don't bother asking believing they already know the correct answer. This is not only going to apply to something as simple as a motorcycle. Ask the testers and ex testers some of the stupid things they have seen which the owners must have thought to be ok or they would have never presented the vehicles in that state in the first place.

Or if you haven't got one of those. I use a couple of bolts or suchlike that fit the holes fastened in the vice and turn the wheel to undo. Remember to drill out the centre punch marks or you will rip out the threads.  :) ;)

There seems to be a little interest in my set up.                                                                 It is a Easylifter http://www.easylifter.co.uk/Hydraulic-Scooter-&-Bike-Rack.htm I bought used of Ebay. As with most things its not until you start using something you then you think that bit could be better. On the lifter pic with the Kawasaki on before I added 3" into the platform the engine cases were touching the lifting post, or the 125s footrest rubber wore through the end on the post. I also added 6" to the length of the frame bed and extended the aluminium platform the same The bottom pivot bushes were Sintered Oilite bushes and were starting to break up so I made some a little more substantial.

The front wheel chock is another Ebay item £30. I don't think I could have made it for that amount and it works well. Again I have modified it a little for my particular application but nothing anyone with a saw and drill couldn't do. Just to make it easier to alter for different wheel sizes.

There is one spring loaded locking pin just above the jack in case of jack failure. I have also drilled through the box and tapped the other box so I can bolt it up solid. It is decent section box and will hold a thread ok until I get round to welding a nut in. :)  The bottom hand wheel you can see is to aid assembly and take some of the sideways wag out of it. I also put on the bottom ratchet straps to stop it wagging.

On the van I have removed the rear suspension bump stops and replaced them with Air assister bags which has improved things greatly
I was considering the Hydra Trail until I had a good look at one and I do not like the way it is designed and works.

I don't see why not. They are not bad at all to look at and I replaced the bearings in both last year just before Crich Tramway Show, but the inner rim leaves a little to be desired. When I get around to changing them I will put some pics up and will be open to offers if anyone is interested in them.
