You know Kelso Bike Fest is on that weekend?

I have a Factory Pro kit in my garage if anyone is after one.

Roger at Revolution set mine up and fitted a Dynojet Kit, so this one is surplus.

£40 posted if anyone wants it, PM me.

PMd you Tattie

Doing that would be in breach of the Data Protection Act anyway.

Smelled of spam before Cupa kindly linked it.

Shouldn't be a worry.

IIRC the 15/42 is a Renthal kit with an X-Ring chain and somebody on here should want it.

I'm not slagging anything.

But the hyperbole was contentious.

"THIS BIKE IS THE BEST LOOKING & SOUNDING VTR OUT THERE BAR NONE"

Hmm...

Dunno what the performance figures might be like yet.

New Firestorm Clicky

Looks very nice though.

I'm excited and tempted. Can't wait to see on ein my local dealers.

1998 R1's are becoming semi-classic like original Blades. Research suggests it should be worth around about £1800-£2000. If it really is mint (be honest with yourself) then hold out for top end. Low mileage (<10,000) 1999 models I can find for £2999 from dealers and a 98 on Ebay goes for around Â...

36 front, 42 rear. A lot of people talk baldrocks about dropping pressures for more grip etc. <rant> There's a reason the people WHO MAKE THE FRIKKIN TYRES recommend these pressures. You think they spend all that money on figuring out how their product performs best and then your mate down the pub k...

Splitters!
