Swing arm off and treated to a thorough clean. Exhausts back on. Honda carbon hugger fitted. Black painted rads and oil cooler back on. Airbox and tank back on. She's starting to look like a bike again. :D

Full marks with the MOT Agent P! :clap:

Ain't even seen my baby today and didn't exactly do anything to her yesterday, but did have a short morning blat to buy her a present off Gum Tree. I went for an Oxford tank bag but then he produced a Caberg flip top helmet with built in sun visor that fits perfectly (despite only being large and the XL Nitro helmet I already had giving me a headache after 30-40 mins or so). £70 for the pair. Think I've got pretty much all the gear I need now except leather trousers. He did have full racing leathers too but my legs were too skinny and his wife wanted him to keep them despite him having given up riding. I didn't ask why... :lol:

Sorry but I have to ask.

Why were you wearing a bra Marty.

Perhaps Al can give you some tips on removal...
