so the replacement fork leg arrived from d&k, fast delivery, and in good condition, although they omitted to tell me the price was plus del plus vat, so a little more than i thought, so thats been stripped and cleaned/painted, and new hagon spring with 10w oil and 145mm air gap, wheels back from powder coaters, taken to get the tyres swapped over and the replacement front [ebay] is buckled, it looked ok until it went on the balancer!!!, note to self, do not buy any front wheels off ebay with any type of damage on them, regardless of price, [although cheap] thats 50 quid out of pocket with the powdercoating, so old rim has gone for a rush job to the coaters, my still even have the bike on the road for the weekend for a shakedown ride, its been very mild and dry here for the last few days, it will prob be raining by the weekend, hey ho
cheers hammie
