Ciao, The fairing stay bar is ripe for U-bolt RAM attachments. One for GPS. One for radar. A drink holder mount up there would be an instant touring upgrade!

Auspanyol Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Surely the fairing stay vibrates too much? Leon, maybe it's just an optical illusion but is your brake fluid darker than some of your favourite whiskeys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Dutchy Posted January 18, 2017 Author Member Contributer Share Posted January 18, 2017 Aye, looks darker then the Glenfarclas in my cabinet. That's why I am happy that the Speedbleeders from wiremybike came in... :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone must make nice, machined clamshells into which a RAM ball can be installed. Whoops, thread-jack... Ciao, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "from the side look in" doesn't satisfy me yet.. But it does have the bling factor.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Dutchy Posted January 21, 2017 Author Member Contributer Share Posted January 21, 2017 Looking good! Salvage complete!!! Stopped by the mechanic today to discuss going +2 up on the rear sprocket and long and behold, they were already fettling her... hussy... Checked that there will be enough "room" for it; the 190/55 is larger (it now has a 190/50) and a larger sprocket mean moving the wheel back a bit. As the chain+sprocket set is on for 3k miles, we'll just put in a new sprocket alone. front sprocket will stay as is, it will want to wheelie enough as is thank you.. The oil in the Ohlins was sticky, so that was well due Good thing they do a lot with Ohlins so a replacement spring was already available. cos this looks like shyte The pre-load adjuster only "did something" near the end of rotations, so that will be services as well New shoes for the old girl John then showed me some really nice Galespeed stuff "that would be nice"... Radial brake/clutch pump+levers and oh yes, rims.... but at 2k I will give them a miss.... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keny Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 You are sure busy Dutchy! was thinking if its a bit off topic to have the SP2 in this section, but as the section description says "First and Second Generation VFR's, VF, RVF, and exotics" I guess the SP2 class as exotics 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
