Its that time of year or lets have a last minute panic before the start of the season !!
A few niggles required investigation, a front end wobble made braking interesting.View attachment 8878.

Turns out a warped disc was the culprit and just in case fit new bearings and have the wheel refurbished.View attachment 8879.

Back wheel gets some tlc.View attachment 8880.

With gleaming wheels fitted the swing arm was looking a bit tired,time for spondon to do some magic and off it went to get stretched !!.View attachment 8881.

Hmmm, first 4 attachments wont work for me ??? Invalid attachment?

Not sure how good an idea a Carbon clutch cover is on a race bike, unless you have crash bungs both sides of it - then maybe strenght in an alloy or steel cover might be more ...

erm - 'damage' resistant.

Good luck - Frank
