“mysteries” Although he would be better off if a plan came together.

It worked didn’t it?

I just pressed them out.

That’s very original, you have outdone yourself.

Haven’t been there for about 20 years.

That's never going to work.

Old design Vs new isolators.

Swing arm is pretty good but powder coating will mean it will not deteriorate.

Fire and theft?

Got mine through, increase of £66 but that includes £64 of unwanted breakdown cover, time to shop around before I tell them to take the breakdown cover off.

I thought that was @boboneleg at first, you two could be twins.

In between rain showers I got the bearings and bushes out of the swing arm. They were in pretty good shape but I have new ones including much higher quality bearings, there is definitely signs of the isolators collapsing, the new setup is significantly different. There are various videos of aligning the motor while fitting the rear axle but having examined it it can only fit one way, there is no left and right alignment other than allowing the rear of the motor to slight shift depending on the front upper and lower alignment mounts, once it is bolted up it will assume a neutral position.

No one from civilisation is called Tyler.

I am going to pull everything off the old wheel then take it down the arches and get the tyre swapped onto the new wheel by @boboneleg’s American buddy.

At a steady 300mph

@Six30 will be sorry he missed that.

It is spoked and has a fair bit of corrosion, I really want to go tubeless.

I’m wondering if I should swap everything over and put the new rear wheel on.

Didn’t we used to know someone with a busa?

Swing arm is out, pain in the ass it was, it has a bit of rust but it is in great shape for nearly 60k miles, the powder coaters will just need to sand blast it and paint it. It is bloody heavy.

He has that picture laminated now.

I don't get it.

He could have used the bump.
