I am gutted for sure .
I’m going to send the yokes and legs to motoliner to get them straitened as it’ll be 1/4 of the cost of replacing them .

Front end rebuilt with new springs ,seals,bushes and oil .
Swing are refitted , rear shock boxed up ready to send of next week to nitron for a service and new spring .

Like a silly tw@ I knocked over the bottle of fork oil so had to pop to Ducati to get another as they’re the only ones in the area that stick the same brand as the one I had .
I had to be dragged out as I was about to buy a 2019 monster (in yellow) 🙈.now back at home glad I didn’t lol .

Just don't try to polish the rims on your carbon wheels, Lloydie...
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
