OMG - another £100 in since I last checked earlier this evening!
Thanks SO much guys, this is absolutely brilliant!
Now got only about another £100 to find for the final balance of the tyres/fuel
(If my sums are right, CK) 
AK has been told by someone tonight who said he might be able to make up any balance needed once the last squids come in.
Fingers xx'd everyone - all systems go for the 1098R, 180+ rwbhp with 96ft lb torque & young Connor on the bars - out for the ride of his year!
AK will also take the RS - 196rwbhp & 101ft lb torque, but superlightened - 15 kilo's lighter than the R, but this is just going for decoration/spares if needed - as its not just a 'jump on & go bike' & will need tracktime to be got used to......
THanks SO much everyone - you are truely wonderful
Write up WILL be done & photos attached too
