Changed the Plugs and Air Filter on the GSXR sunday morning, my god so many wires under that tank!

The air filter was wombles mining, feels so sweet now with the new plugs, new oil and new filters, throttle response is brilliant

On Sunday I re-fitted original rear indicators, but ill have to whip them off and change them around; must've fitted left on right & right on left, as when I select left indicate, the rear right flashes , doh!













































Only joking!

I've had small arrow style rears on but after doing the crazy London night ride,and seeing others' originals versus small aftermarket ones, I have decided that the originals are FAR better for rear- might go for clear lenses & orange bulbs. Any recommendations on where to get them? Griff.

Today I get a call from my dad and he said he could make the hangers :-( as he is going on holiday !!!!

So a quick call to mattersons (metal suppliers ) and I've ordered 6meters yep 6m of 10mm I'd mild steel tube :-@ (as this is one length and you can only order it in a length )
At least I will have enough left over to make some pannier racks lol
