  1. Passed the mot yesterday, oil change today. Now it's waiting patiently for it's new belts!
    I have scoured the forum for tips and tricks and ideas.
    The clutch mod works, it's so much quieter now. I just wish I could raise the bars a bit. I may try a 43t sprocket if I can find one.

  7. nice work.... how comes the pressure plate is painted?
     
  8. I think it was because the plate was corroded and even after cleaning with a wire wheel it still looked horrible. I had intended to replace it but that was about 8 years ago!

  10. Nice one :upyeah:.
     
  11. I had my first ride for four years today all round East Anglia. I called in at MCT suspension specialists for a chat about set-up and they suggest that my forks and shocker are re-built and start from there!

    I did 140 miles which is more than I have done in 6 years and I really enjoyed it except for the rain! It's good to be back.
