As for the exhaust ! It's fine and sounds good

Tiger Grip, best disposable gloves I've ever used, don't fall apart at the slightest wiff of any chemicals unlike most of the ones I've had in the past...

Highly recomended...

Mac, They say they're 7mm thick, surely that can't be right

They wouldn't be a lot of use for working on bikes etc if they were 7mm thick would they

I've had a look online, apparently a "MIL" is one thousandth of one inch So that means they are 7thou in thickness.

today I have had my front calipers off to see what they looked like . I fitted all 4 pads last year and all 4 were wearing evenly which says to me they are doing ok. I also loosened all the pistons up and cleaned everything up.

I also wanted to check backward/forwards movement on the forks. there was no knocking/movement

to do all this I had to hang it off the garage roof with a jack and a bit of wood under the sump.





all good fun, don't know yet if it has helped with the juddering ? ?

Another 207 Miles. still quite can't get the full rh side of the tyre off. not much to go though.

Stripped, cleaned and rebuilt the front master cylinder. Noticed months ago that the rubber boot had split and fancied a go at refurbishing it.
Feels smoother and has a more solid feel now.

I like your inventiveness lumpy but it might be worth investing in one of these...

I use one and it's perfect for the job. Got to be worth £65 of anyone's money, just to save the hassle (and risk) of dangling the bike off your rafters!

Took the mille out for a spirited ride yesterday. Only 60 miles but damn it was fun. Even better news is that after not wearing my new helmet for a week or so it seems to have bedded in and isn't hurting at the moment it's a comfy tight now

Not my bike - but serviced and pampered a friend's little CG125 ready for MOT and subsequent sale.

Running out of room in my back garden; what with bikes, baths and bins galore!

[kev64]

Just got my Moto GP grips, and will fit a little later today,
Hope they cure the pins and needles i get in my right hand !

And then will test run !!
