Actually Ray, that's the new Triumph Training Course for mechanics. They sneak into your Garage in the middle of the night, disassemble your bike down to the last nut and bolt, and then leave it for you to figure out. If you are able to rebuild a rideable bike with no leftover bits, then you pass the test....

I say old boy, your bike seems to have fallen apart. Might i suggest using a torque wrench next time you work on your bike.

Two things come to mind
1) Don't let GRRR pee on anything critical 2) There has to be a Christmas present in there somewhere

Hey, at the next BA.com Rallye down there, someone pull out a spare valve shim or something and say "Hey Chy, is this yours?"
