Looks great mate. Have you got any closer pics of the ASV levers? I want something shorter than the standard ones, but not too short
First morning in Almeria. It's raining on and off which sucks!! Bike feels good. Brakes are transformed....absolutely fantastic....almost too strong. ABS is working but weirdly the light isn't coming on.... Taking a tooth off the front sprocket has really worked here at Almeria. Gettng great drive out the corners in 3rd. Just triggering the first red light in 6th at the end of the straight though, which will be a problem if I pick up the pace (and I bloody need too!)
Back from Almeria. Bike was fantastic....but I've come to the conclusion that it's far too nice to track, and I'm not really one for one riding too much on the road. So, I'm going to put it back to standard and sell it, and build a far less bling track bike. Please pm me if you want first dibs on the long list of bits as described at the top of the post.....
Shame to break it down, it's bloody beasutiful, fully understand your thinking but I reckon your not gonna be able to build a shit looking bike, it shows in your eye for detail, Go on keep it!
Do u have a Comfort seat? If so I may be interested!... Pm me if so? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I have a comfort seat that I don't use if you're interested? Mint condition, minimal use too. PM me Sam
All the parts have been removed from the bike and are ready for sale. Going to put an ad in the for sale section on this forum. Feel free to pm me in the meantime.... End of an era....
