Re: A few changes
Effing brilliant, may as well do my linkage also. I could say to her indoors that it's for the next time her mother comes round, I bloody well hang the bi".......... Peas.
Break it, mend it, mod it, thrash it. If it's made then it's bettered by beer and goggles. Me bikes had Kwak ZZR, Suzuki TL1000s, Yama R1, Aprilia RSV. Now have VTR, Honda CB750 hand built brat/trickster, Yama XS750 and wee old Vespa.

Yeh use the rear wheel spindle to knock out the swingarm spindle. Slide the right hand side rearset over the Swingarm spindle and and knock it back through pushing the wheel spindle back out and replace the Left side. ![Thumbup :thumbup:](./images/smilies/icon_thumbup.gif)

Re: A few changes
Good isnlt it. If you have a spare one laying about it can even be done without lifting and / or removing the rear wheel. Iv'e done it on the sidestand before.

Re: A few changes
Then go round the whole bike to make sure all bolts are torqued up also.

Re: A few changes
Just back from test run, and she is great. Need to make a few adjustments but I can do that from longer runs. Takes a bit getting used to it with new handle bars as I am used to the hanging over the tank, but it's good so far. The mirrors are pish, need to find longer ones for which I can see behind me apart from my shoulders, they are useless really, maybe handle bar mounted ones? And also bleed the clutch again as a bit snatchy, nothing is snagging or tight with turning so all is good just now.

Re: A few changes
You need some mirror extenders. See if you can get hold of Richard aka bsabloke on facebook who makes them. Here's a member here but doesn't come on much anymore memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=11116
A second bleed on the clutch is a good idea now you have given it a run. Squeeze those last little bits of air out that will have shifted.![Thumbup :thumbup:](./images/smilies/icon_thumbup.gif)

Re: A few changes
Went for the mot today, and she passed no bother. Just play in the suspension arm being advised to look at. Apart from that, glad as fook. Got mirror extenders from bsabloke, and all is good with them.
