Oooh, looks lovely. I like the front fender extender - where'd you get it?
Can only see two things wrong with it; (i) way too clean, and (ii) suspension looks a bit firm ?

Looking very good. Mine used to look like that, but I don't treat my bikes particularly well.

Cheers guys.
Black bob - I have now changed the rear shock to an Ohlins of the S model and love the diffrence. I would say the whole bike feels slightly softer now but the biggest change is the plushness of the suspension. Both front and rear seem to deal with bumps and uneven road so much much better now whereas before the swap any kind up bump hand me buckarooing out of the seat. Can't wait for some nice summer days now The fender extends is a Carbon Pyramid jobby off eBay. Think I only paid around £30 for it. |

Yes, it is amazing how sorting the rear seems to improve the front so much as well.

Totally agree. Last summer I really struggled getting any confidence accelerating when leaned over as it just felt so unstable, skipping all over the place on anything less than track like conditions. Bike feels so much more planted now in the corners and the suspension Actually soaks up the bumps now rather than passing them through to me. Looking forward to pushing it a bit now

sorry I lied on both facts above, less than £30 and I actually got them from a UK company but they are the same as the ones you get from China. I had to mess with the spacer a bit to fit over the r&g bar end I have but very impressed with them.
These are the ones I got.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1411989759...84.m1497.l2649 |
