Just ordered some racing sintered SBS pads. £53 the set. Nice!
Thanks! I didn’t know such a thing existed - but yes! You’ll have noticed I’ve got the wood under the side stand as otherwise it leans at about...
turns out mine needed quite a bit of work doing to it! Labour was only £110 but the total bill incl. spring respray was £350. It was a total...
Bit of a thread bump - anyone used SBS pads? I’ve got them on my blade and they’re great on it. Also - in terms of fitment I’m seeing lots...
Realised I never answered this! Used a combination of the 5mm Allen key fitment and the 45 degrees twist technique (seen on random YouTube vids) -...
Finally got the rear shock back from MH Racing and put the bike back together. Had a few issues with popping and banging from the exhaust but...
Thanks! I'll be uploading pics as soon as it all goes back together :D
Few updates on this front! Rear shock is off with MH Racing getting refurbed. I’ve resprayed the front headlight holder and mirror arms, a bunch...
Good luck getting over Covid. Don't overdo it in your recovery. I made that mistake. BMW sounds like it might be just the ticket for you. Look...
How was your test ride? I've got a 2020 S1000RR as well as my Ducati 996 and a 2006 Fireblade. The BMW is ludicrously competent, at everything....

Thanks for all the info! The frame on the LHS has a bit of rash from the PO using a chain to secure it every day - this is the original paintwork...
Well to be honest I’ve got a bit of help here and there - wouldn’t have undertaken some of the jobs by myself! I look at threads like the 916 then...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Thought I’d post an update on progress. Done a number of jobs on the...
Thanks both - super helpful!
My project bike has had a replacement ignition barrel in the past, and as a result only has one ignition key. Should I lose it - disaster. So it...
Only just discovered this thread and starting my own 996 restoration. What a gold mine! Seems like Moto Rapido are the place to go for parts?...
Nice thread! My personal feeling is that if you're after 'special' then you may have to go older rather than newer. I think a large part of...
