First out of town trip!

I can tell you pretty much exactly what we bought for Michael's bike. I can also say that his set up, for whatever reason, is light years ahead of mine.

Bare with me and I'll dig the invoices out.

For whatever reason Michael's bike is absolutely fucking brilliant straight out. Of the box.

Pete, if that is still my old chassis, I had the suspension all reworked so it should have been spot on. Stock fork springs, but new valves and shims, 5W oil. Rear was new shims and either rebound or compression valve (one or the other) and a 11.7kg/mm spring.

No, different bikes and different Michael's

Talking of which Michael M. 'Big Mike' is off his 'P' plates and has been flogging your old girl mercilessly for the last two days. He's a lot lighter than you I'd guess and is having to adjust things as he rides and gets a feel for it. It's a big step up from a shagged out ZZR 250!

Good to hear, I still have all the Tenni pieces in my garage over here and when we move into our next house and I have more of a garage, will reconstruct her with the chassis from one of those funny looking red or silver ones. Stacy is adamant I cannot have a second bike until she has her house. How are the 1400 heads going? If that works, will look at having a go at that also.
