had a visit from the jackal today, first time I've seen him in a couple of months.
plied him with coffee and cakes before making him help me fit a few bits..... :lol:
nothing major, I fitted some new foam grips, as the Kevlar renthal grips looked very dirty and discoloured.... :thumbdown:
I also fitted some carbon dipped oem mirrors, no where near perfect but not bad. I also fitted a benny sticker at last.
gave a quick wax, also lubed the chain and checked the oil.

OH WHAT?! If I'd know I wouldn't have booked Frankenstorm in for an MOT :(

Need to ask Tony if he would tweak my fuel thumbscrews for/with me.

Jamie can do it himself, it's only a mater of turning a knob. :lol: Best to have the dyno run first though to see where things are at. :wink:

I posted a time on saturday of 12 noon to 2pm, this can easily be put back slightly Jamie, gives you time to come down after the mot, then we can dyno it, do some tinkering, and re dyno it if needs be.

Cheers Marty, I just don't think I can do it this time, I need to stop rushing around for a weekend :lol: I'm bloody knackered!

I did try turning my knobs, but failed to make any impact on how the bike runs.. bit confusing.
