  6. nice bike can't help with the panels, I would post this in the classic section anyway, as this section for hello's brakes are ok if maintained, but blue spots are amazing brakes but you'll need matching master cylinder too
  7. I had a terrible day................................Not got up early this morning to brilliant sunshine. Feck it I say and put the clobber on and set off for fuel. Wanted to go somewhere afar so decided to go to Hawes and then the A59 caff near Skipton. trying out my Garmin sat nav too (bought £50 off facebook) Got on the Motodragway to Haslingden and then took the back roads over Pendle Ski p[lace and through Sawley into Giggleswick. didn't settle on Settle, but stretched the legs at the viaduct to take the air and sights trying out my new Helmet, its noisy so wore some new ear plugs from Alpine called motosafe. two sets, one for racing the other for touring. Quite good too and a little pouch and applicator for £20 delivered had be Latte and pastie in Hawes caff and rode east via Aysgarth, Kidstones (very pretty) and a quick shufty through Starbotton, Grassinton and onto the A59 to the Caff A TDM900 rolled up we had a chin wag for half hour about usual stuff he wants to sell it but he's mad, too nice a bike and he's a tall chap and suits the bike. Got home via rivvy Barn about 4pm so 8 hours away, brill day out Drewps
  8. did it at 200'c for 10 mins starting from cold and let it cool slowly. Its what the powder coaters do so i'm in safe territory
  9. if we have a camp site booked, whoever is going send Finnerz the money. You made a commitment, and the thought of losing money spur you on to attend.
  10. did a bit of painting last night, just need to cure it in a large oven this paint will take clear laquer too (tried a swatch) so easier to keep clean

    if you are keeping the original lamps, I think you will be ok as there is very little resistance in LED. flash git
  14. I'm putting a chain guide/protector along the top part. seems to be laods of adjustment ATM and I've done 3k on the chain. Modern polishes are pretty good at staving off the grime the worst bit will be the scot oiler making sure it doesn't drip too much and fling out
  15. It was a special order from Metmachex I believe. it actually said FZR600 on it so they must have adapted one from stock
  16. more updates; 17" FJ1200 wheel back from the blaster. polishing the edges and going to be gunmetal grey metalic on the wheel. reapeat for the rear next 4 output fused bus Metmachex swingarm with Hagon shock
