Is £5.30 Ok for back shock spacers
I saw them on a link somewhere here, it's a company called mayad (I know that's wrong but something like that) it's just a small ally plate that slips round the shock bolt/mount....Are they cheaper than that, is it to much. I'll check what washers I've got too or the local ironmonger will have them ...

Re: handlebar conversion
No prob....so ren fats 2" rise, standard top yoke that fit the bars as you didn't mention putting risers on the vtr yoke, fancy brake ends and a back hose. Did you need other lines on the front ie longer or use yours....I'll check their site again but maybe phone him for reassurance, cheers

Sharing a garage/lock up with a stranger

Re: Thought about this but not sure

I though the front tyre was a bit flat then thought head bearings were overtight ...
