matt said it would be a couple of weeks for the kit but no rush as i have the bandit anyway ...just got the haggon spring to fit which arrived yesterday

laters....mick

Don't be expecting a comfort anytime soon. I've ordered and paid for a top yoke in Jan, its still not arrived and I know Matt was moving premises.

If you get yours sooner than me, then maybe its from stock, as mine is not a straightforwad sv yoke

All back together after the front end change and ready to be riden in anger

I know, I know, polish that down pipe

Polishing and cleaning were way down on my list after the bike has been off the road for soo long.

How much the new front end cost you?

£250 for forks, bottom yolk & calipers
£50 for disks & bolts
£89 for carbon mudguard
£20 for clipons
£25 for master cylinder and lever
£12 for grips

These prices are all approximate, I have been buying parts for well over a year.

So I would say about above 500 pounds, but I'm not finished yet...
Respring/revalve for forks and shock
I have yet to sell my old forks, but as it stands at the moment with no settings tweeked with, my old forks and brakes were better with race tech emulators, 0.90 springs, 20wt oil and sintered pads, but not as smooth.

Let the tweeking begin
