It looks like I've only got a night or two next to my dear old M20, as when the wheels & mudguard are in, it'll be too big & heavy to get up the stairs. Having said that, it'll save a repeat of last nights anguish where the wife can't hear the TV over the banging and crashing from the bedroom above as I put the frame together.
Going out into the cold garage will never be the same again...

I have never met a woman who understands this. Why is that?

I would hate to break the stereotype 'women don't understand us bikers' thing but my wife loves the ol' gal(my M20) as much as I do, in fact she bought the bike for my birthday quite a few years ago. Although I've got to say she doesn't think much of the pillion seat that I have on the bike at the moment.
Brilliant Lee 
once the gearbox is in it will all fall in place. I've only just put the box in my 16H and suddenly the back end is together and looking more like a bike.
I've shown my missus your picture and she said "you can build it in the bedroom if you want...!" Which I was surprised about. But I wouldn't get it down the stairs either, so all the big painted parts are stored in the bedroom where they wont get bashed.
I got in her good books with this bike when I sorted out the pillion seat, cus then she said "Oh thanks, you've thought of me and got me a seat." Ummm yes dear of course I was thinking of you

Well, I guess it was only a matter of time before the M20 was banished from the bedroom but the good news is that it's only gone as far as the dining room. Just as well, as with the wheels in, I didn't fancy freewheeling it down the stairs with drum brakes...

After I'd done my Mother's Day stuff yesterday, I set about painting the tank and applying some stickers & transfers. As Ron mentioned on a previous post, the curve on the tank is not helpfull when trying to stick on the Axholme Signs stencil, but with some careful trimming and some heat from my Wife's hairdryer, they eventually went on. I've also never used waterslide transfers before, but compared to the stencils, they were a piece of cake.
I also dry assembled the back end to make sure I only weld the holes in the rear mudguard that I don't need and when that's done, the gearbox is waiting to go in (it may have to go in the garage for that...), followed by mudguard and panniers.
It's getting there!
