some autoglym bike wash and some wd40 silicon bike shine. yip washed the 848 yesterday. looks not bad atoll.
some rear sub frame ti bolts. just to off set the extra weight from all that carbon fibre blingy stuff.
A left side fairing to replace the rather damaged original. Thanks to Sev for picking it up and posting it on to me. Steve
Thanks fastmonkey, yeah they suit the bike very well. Ive had quite a few comments all saying the same, it shows the detail of the wheels much better as it gets lost with black.
Tomorrow I'm considering buying a reciprocating saw to make cutting the frame lugs and bracing off a little easier - had a go at hacksawing tonight and wore myself out after 20 mins :Happy: Anyone used one on steel applications such as this?
use one at work sometimes anything from 1mm stainless cladding to 10mm thick steel chasis. just make sure the teeth are minimal pitch and start off slowly.
Motolectric high capacity starter cables for the rsv4.....bought some last month for the hyper which made a nice difference. However one thing they don't mention is that the starter cables that are already in there are wound into the loom... Pisser... Doubled up on the two main ones and replaced the short one going from the battery to the relay. All good otherwise.
more ti bolts. this time to replace the crap ones on the outer heat shield. and some new grips from progrip.
Some carbon tube to rebuild the cans on the 900SS and a couple of FE fairing side panels for same - came off a 600 but are the last version with the extra vent - well chuffed at a tenner each
70MM headers have arrived from Camcoat. Looks great. Will fit them tonight as long as it doesnt rain and post pics. I had the full Racespec inside and outside with TurboX black as a finishing coat. £163 inc vat and postage. Very fast turnaround from them. Very pleased. Camcoat Performance Coatings :: DiamonDyzeâ¢
Much more of this talk and Mr T is gonna throw snickers bars at you from his tank! Hacksaw or disc my good man?
A beautifully machined titanium and carbon fibre tax disc holder. Can't believe how cheap it was! Oh, wait...
