realised today that I've lost one of the front wheel spacers on the blade front end..... :(
DS replacement is over £10..... :cry:
also the bikes handling like a piece of crap, I know the head bearing need changing, that will be done in a weeks time, but I think the rear tyre has now really squared off :(
can't complain as it did 3k, tbh it was the wrong tyre choice, the next set will have to be a more road based tyre, tempted to go for pr2's.
thanks to carl for his help today, we got there in the end.... :thumbup:

Put the battery on charge on the '04 CBF600 after I collected it from the seller.
£500, but it needs a rad.
Good tyres and taxed until July- that'll do for the winter commutes.

Black, before you ask. :lol:
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
