I change my friggin mind like I change my pants, once a fortnight

did you do a full bafflectomy ?

Nope, 8 holes in each

take them out and it sounds nice and deep but without being ott

I finally got round to drilling out the seized bolt in the swing-arm so I can now tap it and fit the hugger. Also put my discs on the six-spoke front and had the tyres swapped over. New p-clips for the new braided hoses on the front and new screen (Powerbronze DB) on the fairing, new front sprocket on - seemed to get a lot done today albeit they were lots of easy jobs.

Now where's the corkscrew?

It's in Laguna Seca.

I stuck some velcro on the new(ish) carbon fibre dash, so I could attach the clock and frost warning display.
And ordered the headstock gimbal mount for the waterproof phone/satnav.

Virt and I removed his pair system buy fitting older cam covers and blocking off the two pipes ,one to the air box and one to the pair gizmo .
Fitted my bafflectomy'd standard exhausts and all is good :-)
Virt is coming on with his ability to turn spanners about time to
And thanks to Virt I'm getting pissed now :-)

Lefty tighty, Right loosey Felt bad that your son seemed to grab the concept better than I did, ah to be young again

Thanks for the help, and have fun with the drinking

Yep and he's only 9 !! Ha ha

So am I though!!

Nine....
























...teen

Re-assembled Suspension linkage.
Pressed new needle roller bearing, attached chain runner, fitted Swing Arm, Installed rear wheel and refitted brake.
Fitted taper roller head race, re-fitted yokes forks front wheel and brakes.
Unhooked strapping from roof beam and removed wood blocking and jack.
Nothing is torqued up yet as I am still fumbling around with my first VTR re-assembly and I'm bound to have missed something and it'll all probably have to come off again so I can put things right.

Nice day in the garage listening to radio four.

Oh oh also removed virts seat brackets you know the pointless ones that stop you from removing the seat without having a masters degree in nuclear fusion !

Lefty tighty, Right loosey
