Nice one, thanks mate!

My bike runs as sweet as a nut with out any further engine mods.

Already got all the kit for balancing. Carbs have already been cleaned and had new seals, they just need re-jetting for the exhaust can I'm using. I just need a head gasket and some shims :) oh and those things to do the valve clearances with. Thanks for the suggestions!

I had a Hagon shock fitted once - it was a real good bit of kit - it didn't have a reservoir as i was told it was built inside the spring coil. Coped well with everything i did on the road and it was relatively cheap too!!
:D

A thumbs up review is always good, thanks! :D

there is also some cosmetic changes you can do.
Royster has painted his pillion seat one of his bikes, looks very well. Or try and get a solo seat cover?
For JDM look keep the big indicators, maybe colour code the housing to your paint scheme? clear lenses?
Crash bungs would be a nice addition, no drill type ones though!
New clip ons?


CRASH BUNGS????...to improve its apperance......are you joking???
I spent ages repairing and smoothing my fairings to get rid of the holes the muppet before me made for the crash bungs.
I know you said "no drill type ones though" but come on...how do they make the bike look better?

I would love a solo seat cover, but the ones I've found have been ridiculous amounts. I'd rather buy secondhand, but who in this world actually wants to SELL their solo seat cover . Crash bobbins I don't think I'll ever bother with as I really don't like the way they look. I know, it seems backwards, but I'd rather f*** my panels up and repair/re-spray them if i bin it. Unless of course it's a race bike :D .

Anyway, I contacted Rick about some fork internals and a few other bits and bobs, but he's not replied to me. So are there any other decent places I can try? To be honest I'm more one for cheap and cheerful, as opposed to expensive and shiney. I'd be very happy with a decent set of used fork internals, but I have so many stantions and legs that it'd be stupid of me to buy more.

So thanks for your help with this lads! Much appreciated.

I got mine for a tener on here last week, just keep checking and when one comes up for sale get it or someone else will

crash bungs are not gonna prevent scratching your fairings if you drop or crash your bike, i would like to see otherwise.
