OAP Ted's CB400F2 rebuild - engine not run for about 12 years.

Anything your'e not opening up or not looking at won't be broken or knackered. Or at least you won't know it is. Just like Schrodinger's cat.

Thanks for the various ideas .....Presently draught proofing the garage eaves with glass wool type insulation. Nice brush seals for the top of the up & over door.
Presently costing ceiling insulation in 50 mm Kingspan type material. Then its the multi layered insulation on the double door.
Dehumidifier is doing it's stuff during the presently humid & rainy weather.
Entry is only by the side door via my office annexe at present.
As our large upright garage fridge plays up when the ambient temperature drops below 50 F I can justify the cost as it will make the fridge work all winter Wendy!
I'm easing my way into the garage by stealth. lol

If i charged 6 weeks labour for a 5 minute job, my customers would be in for a shock :o

I noticed that Kingspan is one of the companies threatened with legal action for falsifying tests on fireproof cladding and other materials. May not be the best stuff to use right now.

I have used Celotex previously as it was cheaper locally at the time.
