    What pads did you go with? Would like better grip on the rear wheel if possible.

    Fitted the updated 2 piece design bolt with 2 o-rings, and a little motoseal just to top it off.

    Only had to drain the oil tank to remove it from the lower drain hose to get enough room to r/r the leaky bit that had a new o-ring 60mi ago.(don't forget to loosen the cam chain tensioner first!) Pic soon, maybe.:1drink

    Getting really good at pulling fairings and tanks, might look into the quick removal fitting for the glovebox to shave some minutes.

    Heya Salvi

    No it was a genuine are you ok as he was quite stunned and was kinda dancing around not knowing quite what to do, bit of shock I think.

    No Kiwi Cuddles :rofl, see above, I think he was in shock cos he was desperate to pick up his bike and go.

    I think his riding might take a turn for the better and he might stay on his side a little more :evil

    I've been home with the flu, and finally today I feel like I can walk around, though still wearing a watch cap, hoodie and shivering a bit. Went out to the bike to get some stuff out of the saddle bag. Spied a piece of kit I'd gotten last year from LPR.
    So I installed it on the 990.:lol3

    I did order some tools and a travel bag to use when I'm traveling light and camping rough.:evil
    I hope that's all I ordered anyway. I'm still a good deal foggy.
