HI Guys, just an update and a few pics.

Picked up my parts from the bodyshop today, came out very nice.















Got plenty on order ATM. Pair of Maxxis Supermaxx sport MA-PS boots (160/60/17 & 120/70/17 sound right?) A pair of Brembo Serie ORO discs and stainless bolts to accompany them.

A couple of Q's for the knowledgeable on here. what pads would you recommend? I'm looking at Brembo pads, would the SA series be plenty with the GSXR radial calipers and S/S lines, or had i may as well stump up a few quid more and go for the Brembo SC series?

Also, if you look at the image of the swingarm pivot in the frame, what takes up the space either side of the bearings, I've bought new bearings to go in, but not seen anything to take up that slack. Anyone?

Looking at the parts fiche on here there sholud be a thrust washer and a dust seal, plus another spacer

In all, including the swing arm shaft & nuts there should be 14 parts

Nice work so far, looking forward to the end result
