I think those clips are commonly known as U clips or speed nuts?

Cheers, I'm sure the Halfords next to where I work will stock them if I haven't got some knocking around in my shed somewhere.

Also seeing as this thread is for my bikes and it's been dominated by the NC30 so far, I've just had an email saying my HRC velocity stacks for the CBR should be sent out today, so fingers crossed for a monday arrival :D then I'll be doing as much over time as possible to pay for a foam air filter, some new dynojets, and possibly reground cams :mrgreen: I know I could get similar power from fitting a 600 engine, but these mods are all 100% removable, whereas the 600 transplant requires the left hand frame spar to be cut off and moved 5mm over :down:

I noticed the sidestand caught the pipes, so I broke out some washers and superglue, and presto, no more catching :grin: Now to give it a proper scrub, and book the MOT

It did mate, sorry, I thought I'd pm'd you about it, my bad :oops:

Since fitting it the CBR has been as reliable as ever, I think I caught it before it killed the generator or battery, thanks again mate :grin:

Did I leave you some karma for that? If not I will leave some for you :up:
