well i spent all night- well a nice couple of hours.. ! with the apprentice on and a can of lager chaning my front indicators.
dayymm its not as easy as on the SV- take half the bike apart- but it all goes to makin me feel manly and mechanic man !..
anyway all done now..
last 2 things are
legal Yoshi(japanese one) e marked thats coming this week..
Pazzo levers - went to wrexham to their depot today to see them before commiting. they look nice..picked up the indicators there too... gone for black with silver adjusters- dam they aint cheap but my tiny girl hands wont span the OE ones very easily.. .. make smy left hand ache after an hour or so round town etc. thought one on its own would look pants so had a pair ?129 ! crikey.. and a guy who just come off his bike on the gixer site was selling his for ?60 and I missed it ! damm
(lottery result just came on telly as I type- I imagined writing yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa but nope. )
then thats it!!. bike done

I seem to just miss everything lately, I expect in 10 years time I'll be still on here with a SV.
Quiff my friend you are a tart......but you have a lovely looking bike! You could seal your garage floor by mixing PVA glue and water. It's only looks slightly darker than normal so I'd very much doubt the landlord would notice!
What indies did you go for...they look like the motrax type ones.

I think it's 3 parts water to one part glue but I can check if you want? It's not tacky once dried and it prevents the concrete from releasing the dust. Dad's a builder who recommended it and it worked on mine but dont blame me if it doesnt work.!!! ;)
