RGV 250M VJ22

I felt the same when i went back to 2 strokes with the NSR, felt like i was ringing its neck everywhere but you soon get in the groove, its all about keeping the momentum going.

yeah that's the way to ride them , didn't help swapping it for the zx10 for a few miles as that thing is just ballistic but felt like a bus

I think when you have a big powerful bike you ride it lazily. You cant afford to do that with a two stroke you need to work the bike more to get that bit of magic from it.

Does anyone know what make this shock is?



A few new bits



Some general shots

[ibby4585]

Looking forward to hearing how this rides when you sort it.

Not touched either bike over the last couple of weekends , seeing as the weathers been nice i decided to spend some time with the missus and little one.

The front brake on the rgv has a fluid leak between the master cylinder and the fluid pot, so iv gone blind buying bits no knowing if there going to solve the problem , parts that it needed anyway tho.

Some goodridge braided lines,hrc front hose and a hrc rear hose hopefully that will sort the leak.

Went for a propper ride tonight and the bike was amazing , even with a leaky fork seal and the really old tyres , should have the new ones on this weekend.

Iv fixed the leaky front brake , it was only the line from the resivouir to the master cylinder .

I just the nc is as good as this when it's done otherwise I will be disappointed .
