    I'm also in a similiar position, my bike was however accepted, as well as the brief to make it run reliably. I was never NOT going to pay nor question the bill, provided i was kept abreast with the proposed solution and costs. Reason being the bike has great sentimental value, so if it needed...

    Post your "Windpomp" photos here.

    It actually did, well, semi ploughing, the previous owner used it to make irrigation pipe furrows for the water system. There is a small orchard behind the trees and this waterpump (albeit solar powered) pumps the water to 2x 5000l tanks which then supply the orchard, the cabin and the overflow...

    Are you stupid?

    I wear an open face when chugging along, farm boundary checking duty etc. But I am conscious of it, so if and when I have an off , I turn and crouch. Yes, it's embarrassing falling when chugging, but it actually happens quickly.
