That's bloody awful stuff to apply that carbon wrap. I've had a go at wrapping my belly pan and it looks rubbish.

What are you up to with the front wheel. I see your mudgard is off in the mirror.

Oooo, you can stroke mine at any time.
Seriously though Rob, what a fantastic machine you have there. To my mind superior to anything you can simply buy from a shop. Take care of it!!!

It's not a shock you want for that....it's a step ladder.
