Did you fit them yourself G? I watched in horror when MCT were taking the forks apart on mine. It took both of them together to undo the cartridges. I've taken forks apart before but this looked like a real struggle and I haven't got a spring compressor.
Oh NO ! I took them to Carl Harrison ( Harleston Norfolk) I purchased both used from a forum member , the rear shock came with 105nm spring fitted and two sprares 85 and 95 . So I got Carl to put 85 on in place of the 105. His set the bike up for type of roads I ride (mainly B roads) Given me a complete listing of settings. When weather gets better I'll try it out but if I'm not happy can always take back for a bit of tweeking. Can't wait to try her out !! ;D ;D

No problem mate can't wait to see what design you do
 
The're 150sqid ones from germany. Nose, 2sides and belly. Tail was alpha off ebay.Slight mods needed but only minor.
Well pleased considering the price. Working on grafting the akra can onto the AR link pipe for track days.
 
Fitted my tail tidy from D3 Components..took me an hour or so but then I dropped the screw that holds the alarm in and took two hours to get it back from inside the tail.

Did 3 mods yesterday:
1. Fitted my Thunder Grey painted infils (see thread: http://s1000rrforum.co.uk/showthread.php?1752-Paint-the-plastic-trims/page2)
2. Fitted some lovely AC Schnitzer adjustable levers
3. Fitted my Sat Nav set-up, i.e.:
- a weatherproof fused USB power connector: http://ridermount.com/product_detail.asp?id=24
- a 50cm angled USB lead to power the sat nav and make sure it doesn't catch the fork/steering
- a RAM mount that fits via the steering stem. Got this from Bob at http://www.telferizer.com/
- a RAM mount arm and waterproof case, plus a non-waterproof holder for the sunnier days! :cool:
- a 5" Garmin Sat Nav (2545LMT) to stop me getting lost...planning a few Euro trips this year

Fitted the Gilles clutch lever yesterday, they look and feel great. Would fully recommend them to anyone in the market for new levers.
