Just put a NITRON shock in her! What a pita joba that was! Akrapovic headers made it so much worse than it has been before. Back end had to Come off too.
Anyway that's it done now. I believe some riding is on the cards. Bellypan hopefully here tomorrow

I don't like to say this Rob, but you're going to have to do the job again as you have fitted a Nitron shock not a Maxton

All joking aside, nice work

Chris.

he must have had a hard day not to notice the colour on the spring

Just to clarify I posted this elsewhere and stated the right shock name

he must have had a hard day not to notice the colour on the spring

No it just took it's time to reach his eyes LOL

Sad about the rabbit Marty, but pleased to hear your cat has turned up. I hope his check-up went well,

Chris.

hi chris
we didn't need to take him to the vets in the end, he has no injuries, he's breathing fine, he's also eating and drinking well, i will just have to put my protective motorbike gear on before i try and clean him up, he hates it and will tear me to pieces....

Very pleased to hear that Marty I have found in the past that my old leather motorcycle gauntlets work well with cats claws

Last night I assembled the bike ready for Snetterton next week, ran her up to check for leaks (I made some new fuel lines) then realised I hadn't removed the two carb vent pipes as advised.......I managed to pull them from the carb frames out the way! Only thing left to do is wash it - I HATE washing bikes, well, I hate washing anything by hand!!

Pulled the Firestorms ignition switch apart to clean the contacts. Sometimes it was taking two attempts for the ignition to stay on. Normal service has now been returned

Chris.

Got a tyre fitted to a new to me rear wheel for the red one, in preparation for its mot.
