Morning all, been off the radar for a while is it storm come to a stop butttttt last Friday saw some action and got the butt end transformed.

I also ran in to a small problem re the isr discs I bought, they was listed for the storm but when it come to it they didn’t fit unfortunately the off set was for a blade, so it was back to the drawing board, I have since spoken to a firm and I should have the new discs in 3 weeks time

As I’ve decided to change the rear sets unfortunately the new rear master cylinder wasn’t a straight fit, but last night we managed to make a new bracket to mount it to so that it was functioning properly. Another thing ticked off the to do list.

Not too much been happening with the bike but thanks to a very helpful forum member for remaking the mock up bracket that I had made, I now have the new rear master cylinder mounted to the rear sets.

I’ve actually got a 2006 gsxr 750 master on at the moment so will see how that performs and go from there but will definitely keep the blade one in mind

That’s a lovely colour scheme, my favourite of the fag packet sponsors. May cause StormyRob to have a nose bleed and a nervous breakdown though!! :wink:
