Nah - the GSXR rear shock reservoir means the tank won't lift fully to do the Gladius cam recall check.

I've not rushed to get the recall done - and apparently it needed to have n,nnn miles on it before checking anyway - but booked it in last month.

When I mentioned the GSXR shock (years ago) I'm pretty sure they wanted 1/2 hr labour* if they couldn't simply prop the tank open so I thought "Better idea - I'll put miles on and swap/re-grease/re-swap the two shocks around the recall in a few years" i.e. now.

* Not dissing them, they seem decent enough every time I've been in.
