Re: Jim's RVF *Pics added*
Bit of an update on this bike.
It now runs Triumph 675 Daytona forks, brakes and carbon mudguard.
Also picked up a Penske shock for it which I will be fitting over the Christmas period hopefully.
Pics to follow once fitted.

Well I've done it again and created another track dog!
As much as I loved the carbon bodywork the bike was getting too knocked about in my cramped garage and couldn't bare it getting damaged so it's all been sold off. It's now getting turned into track mode ready for Cadwell but don't think I can take a picture as it might crack the lens!
I've only just got round to fitting the Penske shock after reactive suspension gave it a look over, it's the first time I've ever had an aftermarket shock fitted to an NC so looking forward to feeling the results.

Top work mate. Looking forwards to a catch up and a cheeky *race*...maybe..
I;ve not ridden No9 since last August - i'm collecting bits again though and it will be sorted..in the summer.

I have bought a new clutch, unearthed my oil cooler, my gold RVF hub gubbins, new grips and even my electric waterpump and am awaiting some spare moolah so I can buy a cheeky rear brake setup from Rick.
The showstopper right now is that I have snapped the key in my lock and I will have to grind the padlock off...
Anyways - @ James - I am sure that the track goes the same way :)

Re: Jim's RVF *Pics added*
Keen to hear your thoughts on the penske jim when done.
I have a double clicker penske which came from a track nc30 along with forks fitted with traxxion valves supplied from reactive suspension along with set up notes etc it was my intention to fit penske on an rvf build ongoing but the rs250 aprillia shock on my nc has lost its rebound damping so will be going on that must say it looks a quality bit of kit should be interesting to see how it performs.
