Rattle canning it satin black will be far cheaper.

there's a bodyshop over from me at work - the owner is a bit of a **** but he does a good job. I'll ask him if he does bikes at all (since he's got a ninja himself) and see what he says

Rode the bike for the first time since the accident. All feels ok, appart from the damn rear shocker... I must have got used to it or something I dont know becasue it felt AWFUL!!! Felt like there was no/very little copmpression dampening... got on the power at all and it just sank at the back.

2 weeks till I get the penske,thanks to a screw up in ordering

Hmmm. Odd, dont think I altered it. The rear shock on the falco is screwed though tbh. Its crap Ill have another go tomorrow and see what tinkering I can do to make it feel better.

Going to give them a ring on Monday, wanted to make sure everything else was sorted first. So ill let you know what the cost will be mate
