Re: Another newbie from yorkshire


My rear end. powder coated swingarm. shock rebuild and new bearings everywhere.
My biking history before the R1 was a Kawasaki ZXR 400 for 5 years and a Yamaha RD125 a long time ago.

and before anybody asks, the ZXR 400 was NOT lowered.

Re: Another newbie from yorkshire
Cheers Bub, front end rebuild nearly finished so fill post full pics soon.
anybody know where i could get seat re covered near Leeds/Bradford. at the moment its a temporary/diy job for last summer so i could get out on it, but want it doing properly.
and for the record, i played Sneezy in snow white when i was eight years old, and i was the tallest dwarf!
Just not grown much since.
