Well the old girl got a pass :biggrin got a couple of bits of advice on what could be done but not even an advisory :) sad news is he did fine a ding in the front wheel which I'm going to get sorted at some point (not major) but at the best part of 600quid for a used pair of wheels they ain't cheap :shock: so a repair will be the cheaper option.

good excuse to buy some carbon fibre wheels mate..... :wink:

well the silver bikes gone to a new home, that's the 4th vtr I've sold in the last 2yrs and everyone of them has been bought by the first person that saw them.... :thumbup:
time to show my bike some love. first thing will be a service before the Devon trip, then I think i'll get the new front tyre fitted, it's been sitting in the shed for a few months now. :roll:

Heads off, engine out, stripped and cases apart so that I can order new main and big end shells on Monday.
That's enough for one weekend.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
