So huge thanks to him.

I'll be using his workshop (and his expertise) to fit the front end. Hopefully il get some photos on here by tomorrow evening providing all goes smoothly! Im hoping it does, i'm potentially having a ride out to Cadwell on sunday
That's bloomin handy. Front end swap is relatively easy, I've done 2, although all the hard work had been done for me, speedo sensor, lock stops etc etc.

When I did the last one on my curvy, I used the special top bearing (TWF) and to take the headstock bearing cup out easier in the future, I cut a slot/groove where the race sits.
