Sweet it's great how these bikes live on even through death!! Its wierd to think you'll be riding over there with parts from the same bike as mine :-D...

I'm finally getting excited now too....makes a change from all the frustration!! lol

Cylinder is on its way back tho!! No cracks just a straight re-plate! ?170!! But its been done by the industry leaders Aptec, Poeton! I just cant wait to torque her all back up! :-o

Hi guys, just wondering... I was dry runing the assembley of the kips, I think I have them set correctly but  the actual valves don't have the punch marks. How do I make sure they are in right?
