the back end feels spot on but due to roads still being a bit iffy and the fact i didnt have much of a front brake I didnt puch it too much.

I found a guide for the R1 front forks set up and used that and it feels pretty good so far but will fine tune once I have brakes sorted.

I have new wavy discs to fit too so might as well get new pads too.

I need a bit of adjusting to do to the gear lever and a return spring to get for the rear brake, then its just a few cosmetic touches I`m working on........................

with those rearsets it feels much more sporty for some reason but have lots of adjustment there so should find a comfy position.

cf covers are there to stay, stuck on solidly to hide cosmetic damage.
