Re: Woo!! It's Coming Together!
That is SO weird , when we were in Barmouth I saw this Maaaaaa-Hooooo-Sive geezer wandering past and I remember commenting something along the lines of "That guys leathers must have used a WHOLE Cow , look it still has the horns on them" ...... and you know what ? , people turned around and looked as well

Re: Woo!! It's Coming Together!
While you lot were cavorting on here, I got me shock fitted! Dropped the link plates out then the shock, got rid of the hydraulic pre-load adjuster and viola! Cleaned and greased up all the linkage bearings, then fitted the maxton shock. Took some photos after....
The cause of so much grief! And one of the reasons for needing better suspendies.... Running out of ground clearance and on the fairings... This is what came off.... This went on... And this is how the bike looks... |

Re: Woo!! It's Coming Together!
I took the opportunity to clean the fairing panels and hugger while they are off... Lissa would be proud, washing my bike indoors!

Oooh...............purple! I like purple!
Great job, Mike. Did you swear much? And at the scrapes on your exhaust and fairings!

Re: Woo!! It's Coming Together!
LOL was quite impressed when I saw it. NW4 two up with Claire, big downhill righthand sweeper on A44 The only time I had to hang off to make it round (but don't tell Claire! ) She either did not notice or just kept calm and rode with it
and Sean, not at edge of tyre yet..... |

I haven't reached the edge yet either But at least I trust the storms to take me as far over as I'd like, which I can't say about the original SV tyres or the pirelli diablos I had on.. |
