Here we are again, thinks are going slow...
fitted a small breather filter
ordered new alloy bars

very nice, with all the original holes, a direct replacement
unfortunately one of the bars had a thread problem, so I'm waiting for the replacement
and SES clipons
my small ART can does not really fit nice to the Tyga headers, so I ordered a Viper (E-marked version)
think, that it'is very close to the original
had a Renthal rear sprocket on my list, but couldn't get a silver one, will get a Talon instead
more titanium screws for front disks and all calipers are on the way as well
now that I have an exhaust I will try to fire her up next weekend, but I am not sure if it will work as
I changed almost everything (except inside the engine)
fingers crossed

It's me again
well, this time I added weight
250gr, mmm I don't know why I decided to use the additional springs instead of changing for other springs
mybe I change that next winter....
another 700gr for the can

i used the VIPER in favour of looks and ART can does not fit without mods (and because of the E-Mark), my ART can (see above) and TYGA can are lighter
had already bought a plain alloy yoke cover, but then I found this
AND best of all, I as said, I fired Heidi up last weekend, guest what happened
SHE RUNS
with my own carb setup, ok just reved up to 5000 to keep the neighbours quiet, but she's alive...

Thanks ALex.
Wanted to finish most of the replacements this weekend, but got e-mail's that a) my Talon sprocked got misrouted somewhere in the UK and b) Pro-Bolt UK has sent out my 3weeks old order today
Well, at least, the bar replacement arrived from Race-Lite.

The outcome of last weekend.
Installed another filter
At first I thought I wasted 100 Euros on the SES clipons, I didn't measure the offset before I ordered. The original clipons have a higher offset
Weight is not a reason to buy them, well ok 12gr difference
As I wanted a more upright driving position, I came across this solution
Just use them the other way round, that gives a different angle
Almost 6cm higher at the end of bar
Small but important, I recovered the colors on the ignition key cover.

Oooh very well done. What did you use to do that. Its something that always bugs me on older bikes that are otherwise tidy.
Looks like its going to shape up to a stunner!
