Beautiful day, only way to celebrate your 40th birthday, a blast out on a fire blade to Boxhill. Much better now I've replaced the rear tyre with a Michelin Pilot Power 190/50/17

As Paddy pointed out the other day, sprockets are FOOKED, teeth looking well worn and 'rolled over'. New Renthal's on order.

Thanks, I really wasn't sure when I bought it a week ago, the advert was crap and it's just not my thing. Then I saw it in the flesh and it was mine. It really turns heads, not something I'm used to!

Thumbs Up

It looks great. When I sat on it the other night I was shocked how light it is, much lower than my RR too! Looking forward to some summer runs with you on it then!

Saw that on eBay the other week, I was tempted to buy it just for the fairings. Embarassed

What front tyre do you use? Everyone says PR3, but they're not available in a 16" front. Sad

Received some new parts yesterday. A full replacement rear tail section, I need a regular one for practicality. I'll keep the single for fun.

I'll have the tail section sprayed white and then some similar (but sympathetic) stickers applied to key in as much as possible.

Braided lines and a couple of other bits.
