You only overshot the lights by 20 feet !!!!

new pads fitted and are the business 

oil changed and iridium plugs fitted, bike much smoother and has more guts.

tank range checked. 18.8 miles per litre, 10 litre tank, 188 miles max range.

clutch modified and now it doesnt slip when abused.

got the peg down on a roundabout in daventry, not only did it touch down but it folded up squashing my foot 

i took a can of fuel with me to run it dry, it ran out right where i hit that deer. 5 bikers went past and only one stopped to see if i needed a hand..... the others just give it the nod 

only the 15T sprocket to fit and a bit of playing around and its there

15T drive sprocket fitted and the bike is a lot better.
still only does 77mph max  but at that 'speed' its big wind against small 'power' so the revs are just a bit lower. it still manages 65mph up big hills though 

3 weeks to go, rock on!

still only does 77mph max 

At least you don't get a speed wobble over 70 !!!!

my roll mats had to go under the topcrate so i decided to move the flashers.
then i come across the original zx7r ones so on they went 
bike all loaded bar the tent that has not arrived yet 



note the coat hook on the top right of the box
