Looking nice man..

where abouts in surrey are you?

would be interesting to see how it goes compared to my hybrid... do you go to boxhill or newlands?

the brake hitting the clocks is a failure.. how about moving it up or down?

lovely to see that everyone is fighting to my spare top fairing but for now its not up for sale, sorry all

Woody, i live in epsom so about 10miles from Boxhill, i'll head over there at some point soon when its done. As for the brake lever, i don't think there is enough movement to stop it hitting the mount, i guess i could put it at a stuppid angle just for the MOT.

I'll take another look when i get a chance to go to the garage.

I got a chance to get in the garage last night & check out the brake lever & mount. There is no way of adjusting it so that it won't either hit the clocks or the clock bracket. However, to stop it hitting would require only a small nut being glued onto the lockstop, so will only shrink the turning circle by much.

I also got a chance to change out my coils, will see how they respond soon.

I still need to swap out the front wheel bearings & bleed the brakes, reseal the airbox & wire in a couple of the plugs (trying to make them slightly more waterproof now its not track only)

Hopefully i'll find the time over the weekend.
