Sounds good.
I went to my mates where it's in his (damp) garage and was going to go out but it was pissi g down so didn't. Ran the engine for a while and gave it a good wipe over and was going to spray some ACF50 but forgot it.

Fitted the hrc tank pad and filler cap cover .


Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Been quite busy fitting and breaking stuff
to my bike lately so thought I'd take some photos.
Ohlins shock fitted
cbr900 front end ( has made a massive improvment over the standard forks relatively cheaply. Was a bit of fiddly modifying the HISS to fit the top yoke)
danmoto bars ( had a few problems with these not tightening up enough. Replaced each of the bolts with long m6 bolts so I could get a nut on the other end and really tighten them up and now sorted. Other than that problem the bars seem good quality)
pazzo copy levers
hugger
steering damper







I have drilled holes in the the subframe and remounted the high level cans more securly. Seems the most logical way of mounting high level cans


Next things to do are fit the braided lines I have, get the tank resprayed as the tank is faded, fit a marowaki style undertray, get spare wheels and spare subframe powder coated black and fitted.
Oh and give it a clean when I can be arsed

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Just did the led light block conversion for the tail light, had to split open the taillight housing to install the unit using hit gun and couple screws.
The new light is now much much brighter, got the unit at a local auto store for $19 and change, great mod'!
upcoming mod', the R1 R/R unit, maybe tomorrow night

You never see a motorcycle parked in front of a psychiatrists for psycho therapy. All I need is cycle therapy

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
My lad Iand I went into the garage this morning at 6am as he stayed over last night .
It was him who woke me up to do some work on his pw80
.
We made a bracket for the end can and a bracket for the seat unit .
And fix the hole in the Lhs plastic engine case and refitted the casing .
Fixed the rear brake so that works now
.
We are waiting on some parts now like carb and throttle cable and throttle housing and tube .
And some blue grips .
Then it will be the test ride
just to make sure it all works before the strip down .

Got it out of the garage, took a spin down to Hein Gericke, took a couple of pics, put her away.
