its road registered so mainly just on the road with a few track days thrown in.

no racing for the old girl. looking at its battle scars its earned its retirement

Indeed, No9 is still hanging on in there :) I hope the old bugger is still going in another 30 years! :mrgreen:

I'm booked for the 2nd July at Cadwell and will be back out with several of the usual 400GB crew. It's a friday and there is classic racing on that weekend, but if you have a bit of time..get over for the crack.

My bike lives in a container as I have no garage so I need to get over and give the moto a once over to ensure all is well. Should be good to go. Have been rusty and off the bike a fair bit, so a steady session will do the job.

yeah that sounds great. I'm sure I'm free on the 2nd so will check it out.

new lines, ti caliper and pinch bolts.

plugged the radiator fan sensor correctly.

front fender mounts will need slotting as theres only 3-4mm gap at the rear of the fender.

supercorsa runs mighty close to the radiator. I didn't have a problem with my last rvf400 and supercorsas but I think I'll cut and shut the radiator bracket couple of mm for peace of mind

FWIW, I'd be tempted to rake the radiator by a few degrees rather than pull it straight backwards, it'd look much better at s slight angle.

noted. I'll see what I can work out with it. the suspension is rather stiff with it being set up for racing. in its current configuration I think it would be ok.
it will be the top of the bottom radiator that will need moving . I think I can shift it back 5mm easy enough

I'd say, looking at the pic above, that the top is ok where it is and my suggestion would be to move the bottom backwards by a few degrees to create the angle.
