  4. Took the cycle cat rear sets to get them re anodised in black. Couldn't do with the shiny silver finish on them. In the meantime, I've fitted a set of the podium racing rears sets and have to say, more than happy with them. Went out for a spin at the weekend loaded with Allen keys and 10mm spanner to get the right position and the foot pegs are mega grippy!

  6. Not far off, mate! :)

    Hope that one day soon I'll have enough bits to start the 748 sp frame build I want to do.
    Already got the frame and various other bits...

  10. I just think your bike would look ace in yellow. Or just get another set so you could swap and change.

  19. Cheers pal! I’d like to say that it’s nearly finished but it never is, is it? :joy:

  20. I'm thinking it might be done. Unless you get in to the mill I'm not sure what's left.
