more changes to Rap

well while I`m still waiting for all my bits to get the bike fixed, I fitted the new footrest plates, adjustable rearsets and exhaust hangers.

Took a bit of fitting but thanks to having a decent set of tools and some big hammers have got the gear side all complete.

Reall big thank you goes out to Weirdo for the plates and hangers and a huge choice of spacers (also for all the engineeering expertise and advice) which despite my cackhandedness all went together!!!

Will move onto the other side when I get the opportunity (got a bmw bike to sort out as a buyer is coming to take a look on Thursday) and hopefully get all my bits together to fix the "chainbreak damage".

I have the new springs/seals etc fitted to the R1 front end so that will be on soon too!

Cheers all!

Thats the brake side done now too!

Will need to fabricate a heel plate to protect the brake MC and the fun bit in bleeding the rear brake!!!!

Both footrests are about 20mm higher and 50mm further back with lots of adjustment to go further.

Once again many thanks to the Great Weird One who made this all possible :happyhappy: :notworthy:
