I will - thanks.


I was considering bars, but I think they're a bit 'heavy' looking.

Thanks David. That explains it.


Great site you've lined me to there - thanks.

Thanks David. Do you mind me asking how much they cost?

£210 on extra mirrors  :eek:


Still, if it works better for you, that's the only thing that matter.

The black rubber bung near the rear brake disc.


I managed to pull it out in its entirety the other day. What does it do?

David, that is SERIOUSLY impressive.


Which engine guards do you have on there?

And the OCD cleaning continues...! I took the pads out and cleaned up the rear wheel and calliper. I was impressed how easily the rear wheel came out. This is becoming slightly obsessive! http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad54/sullivj/1D277BFC-DC11-42D8-99C8-D76606A6D06B_zpswvzdajwe.jpg Re: OCD cle...

How many bikes do you own?!?

Sadly, I 'only' have 3. That picture was the showroom where I bought it.

Me too.

So tonight, the cleaning continued with the sump, timing cover and final drive. Once cleaned, I'm coating these parts with ACF 50. I use it on all my bikes as it's an excellent corrosion inhibitor. http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad54/sullivj/74E8A8A3-34B1-4C6A-AF6B-29C0797909A4_zpsd4hcvvfa.jpg R...

Thanks David.

Can the black plastic cover on the front of the engine be removed with the exhaust in situ?  It looks like it's only 2 bolts to remove it?

I took the end can off, but the rest was done in situ, laying on the garage floor.  I'm pleased how well it came up though. I'm trying to do the difficult cleaning jobs first... It's the sump next :-(

About 3 hours worth.. It's a dreadful affliction...
