Dunno man that's like 1" off. I would have totally fucked it up and ended up having to use duct tape in the end.
Can't wait to see the finished project.

For the life of me metric measurements make no sense in my brain I can't see it. Especially length and weight. I must be a savage and I'm OK with that.

Not sure what Im looking at here nor its relevance to this thread or recent comments but I am completely mesmerized!
Go with the flow dude?
Now you get it...
Edit: In case you're still confused, allow me to interpret as I'm beginning to understand Waynespeak...
The pushup squirrels with Nike headbands are synchronised and obviously members of the same team which speak to likeminded thinking or agreement and team cohesion. Wayne's follow up comment "Go with the flow" further emphasises this message.
The clip from Planes Trains and Automobiles should be a little more obvious: a pair mates experiencing bitter cold, yet the point of them being mates and sharing a bonding experience, while bitter and angry is the point. The scene builds to a crescendo of expression from cold, to cold and angry, to a snarling dog that is just there for comedic sake and brings it all together.
CPT Kirk shaking Spock is a simple statement: "Wake up man and come to your senses isn't it obvious"?!

@JAT & @Noobie , that would be too simple and the mind is a complex and often misunderstood organ. Yet in more ways than you realise or care to admit we're all alike, even Wayne. Some are more outward, others more inward in how we express ourselves, but we're for all intent and purposes one and the same.I just thought once he gets pissed he floods the forums with gifs and memes

Check out this true barn find I just picked up...hasnt run since 1999. I couldnt resist because the price is right and this bike is all original except rear shock, exahust, seat, and windscreen. Now I have 2 Superlights that dont run. Maybe between them I can cobble enough parts together to have one working one????

Yeah, all kidding aside my plan is to try and restore both. These yellow MK1 bikes are pretty rare in the states so I am super excited I've been able to find 2. Since I dont have any real skill at fixing bikes, getting these restored is going to take me a loooooong time.Cobble enough parts together to make 2
£150 to £200 here to anywhere in the UK usually

Seriously, I bet shipping it over to you on a boat would be cheaper! So using my abacus, I calculated the cost to $0.58 per mile. This deserves a GIF/memeIf it's cheaper to send to UK, I'll have it
The specialist bike couriers do round robin trips to keep the price down, works out well if you don't want a specific time slot when booking.Last year Pansexual (superheavy) was £180 from South coast England to NE Scotland ~ 650 miles. I thought that was cheap
Was Chaz Mortimer at @Dirty Leeds recommendation, the guy had 2 more bikes in the van when he dropped mine
2800 miles and 41 hours travel (one way) - Have you considered asking Dirty Leeds if he fancies a US Roadtrip?
Alternatively, U-Haul should be cheaper....
