Also where did you get the gel seat,how much and can you still get the seat hump on.

I bought my basket weave type seat with gel off trigerri but it was made by http://www.customseats.co.uk I think? Will check bike tomorrow and let you know.I can't get the seat cowel back on my bike now the new seats on, just a tiny bit out for fitting, but can live with it for now. I'm in two minds whether to change my wheels but the yellow sets it all off. My bellypan is yellow,Dave balanced my carbs, changed my discs/pads and just need to change my oil etc. My bike set up must have been set up by previous owner and lots of tweeking as Dave said it handles completely differently to his and said is much much better and rides differently, so he's checking it out tomorrow to have a proper look etc..I just want a yellow undertray and Dave is going to respray my bellypan.I think my bike looks great for an 'S' reg..









Heres mine with a black belly pan. Just awaiting my wheels to painted black ,new mirrors, brake pads and I will be happy

Fitted it last night and greased all linkages at same time. Just got to get the ride height and Sag set, and wait for the rain to stop and go test it.
