Il have to come over at some point and take a proper look at the 2 wheels! I didn't notice any mods as you came past the other day?
No mate that can't be ours,as he,s quiet .... It's only when he sees someone and then he go's ape ... Plus you would not hear him where you live..... Mods so far on mine are.. Removed the rear pegs gold chain and sprockets,braided brake lines changed a lot of bolts and fixings for stainless ones....de-cat and flash tuned .... Just bought a set of ASV levers and should be here tomorrow... And there are a few more but can't remember lol.....Now if you want to see a modded 14b Russ should be around and he's got a real modded one :)... He's from Lynn as we went for a little run out last night ....

Yea as for coming over to take a look at mine give us a shout mate and take a wander across the road.....
Sounding good mate! Got a few mods I want! Do you fit your own? I've done a few bits myself but never done braided lines and is something I'd like to do. New levers will be needed soon too! Who did your flash tune and what hp you getting?

As for the other chap we will all have to meet up and have a ride out! And a beer at the feathers?

Il pm you my mobile number if you like?
Hiya Dan.. Yea i do fit my own...But to be honest i don't like to mess around on other peoples bikes when it comes to brakes..
Also not got a clue what HP she running...But i may take it over to Norwich one weekend and get a power run on a dyno just to what its pulling....As for flash tune,it was done by mike at velox racing on here...

Come over and take a look,i'm about on Saturday

I am very upset right now as it appears I may have paid far far too much for this bike :-(

Exactly, some people get silly bargains, some people might pay over the odds but at the end of the day it's a stinking bike and worth every penny imo.

Doesn't matter mate if you are happy with it then its the right price.
It's all well & good paying peanuts for a Bike but I'm a firm believer you get what you pay for!

I used to sell cars for a living,the general idea within the showroom was as long as the customer walked out happy,they had got the deal they wanted :D

Just cause someone paid less,doesnt mean youve paid over the odds,some bikes are worth more than others(ie:some are looked after better than others)

If you were happy to begin with,why worry about what others have done/paid ;)

The red framed ones are blatantly the best. Everyone else is just jealous :wink:
