yeah that's the way to ride them , didn't help swapping it for the zx10 for a few miles as that thing is just ballistic but felt like a bus

I think when you have a big powerful bike you ride it lazily. You cant afford to do that with a two stroke you need to work the bike more to get that bit of magic from it.

Looking forward to hearing how this rides when you sort it.

Not touched either bike over the last couple of weekends , seeing as the weathers been nice i decided to spend some time with the missus and little one.
The front brake on the rgv has a fluid leak between the master cylinder and the fluid pot, so iv gone blind buying bits no knowing if there going to solve the problem

, parts that it needed anyway tho.
Some goodridge braided lines,hrc front hose and a hrc rear hose hopefully that will sort the leak.

Went for a propper ride tonight and the bike was amazing , even with a leaky fork seal and the really old tyres , should have the new ones on this weekend.
Iv fixed the leaky front brake , it was only the line from the resivouir to the master cylinder .
I just the nc is as good as this when it's done otherwise I will be disappointed .

It's had uprated ones fitted with solid pins fitted.
