No still not got it back...

Its been serviced
Had new brake discs and pads fitted
R & G's fitted

When they were looking at it they found that the speedo sensors bust again, ( 2nd one in 12 months )
Also they found an engine bolt thats sheared off ( long story involving lower fairings that I wont bore you with ) and they cant get it out and are now talking about dropping they head off the front pot to get it out

They got the bust bolt out without taking the head off

Thats good news Fizz

Mine should be back on the road in propper working condition after christmas I hope.. replace a warped disc (you dont want to know how expensive ZX-6R discs are!!!) put some sintered brake pads on, and some braided lines on the front.... plus its major service...

At the moment its hiding in my garage under some bed sheets.. as my Nan will be staying with us shortly... and she doesnt know I have a bike!

Cool, expensive dont get me started....

I just had to shell out for this lot

34K service
New front discs
Sintered Pads
Speedo Sensor

I also had R & G's fitted whilst I was at it

They didnt charge me for sorting out the bust bolt though so that was a result

Was rather expensive though
