We Dont go to Ravenholm Anymore... ( SPAS 12 review)

Something tells me you need a small pair of circlip pliers… :joy:

Great looking unit though… :+1:

And…

Stock painted, and put back on…

What do you guys reckon looks better??
Black stock, or olive…??

either way, looks better than the original…
I think the biggest improvement, is getting rid of the white decals…

The black stock looks menacing, but I reckon that the green breaks it up and gives it a bit of detail, especially with the black loop on the end……. but it’s whatever floats your boat as to what you like best between the two :+1:

Looks much better, nice one :+1:

Being Italian made, give it 15 reverse gears and try and measure the fps power on the reverse stroke of the piston! :joy:

NO I don’t paint them

BUT I do
pull them apart,
break what I can
End up with bits left over
Then put it back together like it never happened
All to appease the gods of FPS

Hey, @Bikersmurf
Any chance, you have upgraded your spas spring.?

Any fps reports.?
Where could I grab a suitable 1.6…??
It’s gotta sting, a little…!!

Bump….
Any upgrades, yet @Bikersmurf …?
Keen to know…

I have been fixing a friends bike
And if he would just leave me alone and stop adding things to do on the bloody thing.
I might get some of my own stuff done.
The last time he came over I threatened to charge him the same price as the bike shops.
So he has not been near me for the last two days.
What turned out to be a simple service on a 916 Ducati
Has now turned into a near full bloody restoration.
No matter how many times I tell my friends " I am retired". It does not sink in.
Just because I still have a full workshop and all the machines to rebuild engine’s

Does not mean I still want to.

And on top of that the wife is feeling neglected :sob:
Rant over

Oh to answer your original question

That would be a “NO”

All good, dude…
Just curious, that’s all

Have a merry Xmas, with the fam…

BTW, can you do a service on my duke1098…?
It’s down the coast , and close to you…

(Sorry, couldn’t resist…!, :rofl::rofl:)
Merry Xmas.!

SERIOUSLY
I have never worked harder in retirement.
Than when I actually wasn’t

I am seriously thinking o f coming out of retirement and going back to work so I can have a rest😩.

My old man has always said the exact same thing!
He wishes he stayed “at work” for a few years longer as he wouldn’t have been so busy as he has been since he retired :joy:

Yep. Worked hard to engineer a redundancy payout and then Dumbell Newman cancelled all the IT projects and no more work. Going to work was certainly easier than growing vegetables to feed the wildlife

BUMP…

so, what do you guys reckon…
which looks better…All Black, …or Black and Olive…??

I was considering doing all black, on a UDL at home…
But, i reckon, the olive looks a bit better…!

I like the 2 tone better with the Olive n Black. Looks mean.

The UDL is the " superior blaster"…

Very technically accurate, all switches, levers, side cocking levers, feed gate etc, all there…

Paint is a little iffy and variable, standard but fixable…

it just fires…darts…piss poorly at that…

I wish the UDL could shoot gels, like the yank model does…!
