Re: Woo!! It's Coming Together!
I lay on the floor under Mike`s bike to get at one of those rusty buggerin seized nuts and saw the "Chamfer" he had put on the exhaust and said "F***in Hell Mike" ...... It was proper ground down , there must have been a fireworks display for the people behind him

 They all (sensibly) anchored up prior to the bend, I did my usual knock it down two cogs, tip in and on the power... only to find that the bike ran wide due to the poor suspendies and two up.There was no pressure in that hydraulic pre-load adjuster, no fluid came out of the banjo when I took it off and it looks like there has been damping fluid getting past the piston rod seal. That shock is FUBAR, not up to going two up on Welsh roads I reckon.

Re: Woo!! It's Coming Together!
I took it for spin and found it leans right over now......
 (Joking)It's a tight fit to get it in and a bit of wiggling was needed to get it all lined up... Most of the marks is oily hands though....
