grouch you can pick up a proper bike alarm for £20 on ebay only 3 wires to connect and remote control if you can't manage that you can get a disk lock with alarm built in, keep the rape alarm in your pocket with your luck you might just need it

Hey KevtheRev, I'm planning to start this either on Monday or Tuesday. I was even contemplating taking Cynic's advice and have the forks alone done by a mechanic but will see how I get on once I actually manage to get the forks off. Congrats on getting all that done in an afternoon! I'm thinking this might be a job over two days for me and I also need to do the rear wheel bearings as well. Last time I did that, the difficult part was getting the race out and ended up having to take it to the mechanic to have it pulled.

cheers Paul, it is turning out really good. Just hope the engine is done right

Not really. You knock the frame ones out from the opposite side and the lower on on the triple tree normally can be levered up and off with a decent screwdriver.
