Didn't want to rev it too high, next door neighbour is a police super-intendent lol.

From memory Cradley want £83 for seals, so might just buy some new calipers, what you reckon?

Next job is to make a new hanger for the exhaust and possibly get some new front discs, then sell the money grubbing begger.

That looks great!
Is the frame a matt or satin finish?
I can't decide what to go for myself, I'm thinking whatever you have there - same for the wheels and a solid colour fairing.

Sorry, I made a mistake. My frame is satin and my wheels are gloss. I know what I meant :D

On another note, does anybody know where I can get the little black plstic/metal inserts that go in the fairing holes? Also, what is the correct name for them?

Will hopefully have them fitted by the weekend. Plans are to clean them up and maybe spray them black leaving the tockio white. We'll see how they look gold. Also may need to get a 7r mc.

I can vouch for the 9r brakes from the 98 C1 models onwards being damn good kit, and of course they're 6-pots, so it might be worth looking if the MC would fit. :smt002

Only thing is they are the same as 7R brakes, which the spacing is far too big for the calipers to fit.

The ones scott has there look like GSXR k1/2 calipers?
