haven't had a chance to ride with the akra's yet malc, but they're very similar to the 2 bros, and I never had an issue with them, and my plates of meat are size 12.

It's there.. I'll give you a clue, it's a bit overpriced on the start price, has no bids and reserve not met..

Take the nice parts out of the equation and with the age and miles it's not worth a great deal. if it was bin at a couple of hundred less than the start price I'd consider it and like Marty punt it back out.

I ride with the ball of my foot on the pegs, heels tend to angle in toward the swingarm when cornering, pipes look like they would be in the way, easy fix with a hacksaw, some jb weld and some gungum though I reckon

hahahaha what are you racers like, I suppose you might have issues with any hi level system then malc. next time have a ride on mine and see how it feels....(my bike that is, you filthy perverts.... )

Watching it too :-)

The weather at bournemouth Air show and the Vulcan doing 5 flypasts and sounding incredible. Then the Typhoon and that sounded totally amazing.The Chinook was bloody amazing too. been in loads but not flew like this one did. A great day until we all heard about the Hunter going down at Shoreham. So sad. 7 dead but not the pilot.

Well done & yes most of it was Sh1t...

refitted my fabbri screen, it collected some overspray that needed removing, I also managed to mount my cheapy camera to one of the mirror extenders, not sure if vibration will effect it tho, i'll find out towards the end of next week.

just got to fit the beam bender and check the tyre pressures and she's ready to go.
having said that, it's still got a coolant leak and a small oil leak....
