Where are you going to get the arm coated to? May I recommend Griffs Motorcycles, just off of Lodge Causeway, they did a great job of my TZR back in the day.

Also as VB said you might as well do the whole bike while you've got the engine out. Turn around time should be approx a week so that won't be an issue

I'm just waiting for the engine to get done and then I'll crack on, my problem is that there is no door on my garage anymore and all the different parts of my bike are in my kitchen/bedroom.

I do recall just meeting Squirrel Hunter at the destination though, he must have known a short cut.

Geddit back on the road mate. I'll try and keep up with the new and improved Stretchedcat

Yes, I was always the quiet unassuming one and never once was I the stoopid one suggesting the likes of 1,000 sheep road in ANY weather and trying to get people to get camera's out for corners (which never happened ). God job I will be around soon again to keep the MoFo's safe. And yeah, I remember you telling me off for holding back in corners coming back from Abergavenny

Don't worry me old china, I'l be holding the group up for a while just as soon as I can. As Beenz pointed out I was always the sensible one and never went tear arsing off. You know the type... All the gear, no idea....

Any idea's how to lift the front of the bike up an support it as I can't support it from under the engine yet ha haa. Also need to support the rear (oo-er) so I can remove the swing arm.

Just waiting for the front springs to be delivered (ordering them tomorrow) and rear shock (paypal'd yesterday how long does it take for paypal payments to clear I've heard it's about 10 days..??) also to be delivered.

I also bought some crash bungs, might see if I can fit those little crash mushrooms somewhere on the back to try and save the frame in a worst case scenario
