Busy 30th Rob - you're not far from me, ever get down to Marina Drive at Brighton?[/quote]


Ive been to the marina a few times mate. If marina drive is a bike thing no i have never been. Should be good to go end of march so will be out and about. No reason not to take the 12 miles trip over mate.

I am sure we will bump into one another in the near future.

Well today after quite some trying I finally got myself in a position to acquire a full pfm set for the front of my bike :)


Definitely helped by the sale of My SP1 setup. Never even used them!!!


Some of you may recognise them possibly but they're now mine mwahahahaha.

All thanks to a true gent.

Fairly changed from standard!

Be a month or so before its altogether.

There is a lot more happening to the bike so it will take a fair bit of getting used to. Rogered forks should certainly be a help :)

Now that's good stopping power ,
I'd love a set myself but finding them for the rsv front end isn't easy or well priced .

PFM worth every penny, they really are not cheap but are an investment.
