Re: new bits
£36 for the grips, made me wince a bit, but folks want a tenner for a used throttle grip and 6 or seven quid for a left, by the time you pay post it's 20 quid. F that.

Re: new bits
I wish I knew that , I was wondering if any would know the answer to this but I'm looking at raising the rear end of the bike by 20 mm , I've got a k7 shock already but still not 100 percent happy with it , but my main concern is carbs will raising back cause havoc with carbs as I know there very sensitive little bikes ?

Re: new bits
Thanks for info , random question how do I find kayla ? Members search is out off order unless you look throught all 218 pages , also do you think they would still work with k7 shock ? Only reason I ask is the base of shock is extremely close the bottom linkage I've had to modify linkage in order to get shock to fit4hundread wrote:Raising the rear won't upset your carbs, I have mine jacked up 20mm with Projection Components dogbones, (PM Kayla, they are well worth having), I am running a Hagon on the rear though have a K5 600 that I may switch to.
Cheers, si

Isn't the hagon specifically for the gsxr? Would you be interested in selling? Just asking buddy!
