tip- 1 divorce wife 2 clean casings in dishwasher 3 build bike in kitchen 4 apologise to ex wife 5 propose.. ;D Ozzy,clean the cases with white spirit and then shove through the dishwasher to get any crap that maybe lurking in the corners.Take out at the end of the programme,place on draining board to allow to dry,receive thick ear from wife and then toddle off to garage with sleeping bag,Johnny Cash/Ramones/*insert chosen artist here* CD and the latest copy of Razzle.Coat casings in WD40 and work on properly with a clean cloth.

2;Rusty tank cleaning*stolen from Guy*.
Take rusty tank and partially fill with nuts and bolts and then put on the cap.Wrap the tank in a towel or blanket and secure with tape.Place the padded tank into the tumble drier and run it on a cold programme.Job done.
Goes without saying you should not allow the wife to catch you at this either. ;D

this is my tip:
1. divorce wife 2. fill up garage and shed with 3 frames, 3 engines and much assorted crap from ebay that you "just thought would come in handy for the next project" 3. if the garage and shed get full, use the house 4. spend all your time in the garage "restoring" your scooter (s) or drinking quite often at the same time 5. wonder why you've not found another woman yet ;D
PS. no dishwasher, maybe that didnt help with number 1, though putting the casings in the oven does really make the bearings drop out! and no one to complain that food tastes a little like engine oil for a few days
