good stuff and glad you got this part of it sorted, make sure you give this one a good clean in and out, you don't want this one going pop!

Well just a quick update again ...
Mark tells me that the engine is "alive" and that he just has a few bits to finish off and then take it for a test run to make sure its ok ...
Should have the bike back soon can't wait!

Still not without a few problems, but all seems to be sorted now.

Engine in, bike back (cheers Mototech - you're a diamond geezer!)

Front HEL braided lines installed (just the rear to do now).
Zero Gravity DB Screen going in tomorrow
Oh and forks raised back to where they should be ... I had no idea that they were even lower than standard (been like that since I bought it), but Flymo pointed that out to me ... and also thanks to Flymo for all his help doing the brake lines tonight

Brakes are sharper, and thanks to the fork adjustment the bike feels a lot more stable than before (not that I thought it was UNSTABLE before ... it just feels BETTER now LOL)

I gave it to Mototech as part payment for fitting the replacement.
