    Looks nice, lowered with those wheels, there's a very similar one near me so I have a good idea what it looks like in the flesh. What next?

    Yes, it was my oil cooler, it has now been replaced with a larger better quality cooler and relocated to the centre.

    Those pegs in the pics have long gone, now got 17" pegs and I should really fit them before the winter sets in.

    Glad to hear the Super ts are still doing well

    Plans are to lighten it without impacting on comfort and versatility too much.

    Thanks Andy, just before lunch when we had some sun and the track was completely dry I turned the shock settings to full hard (too hard for combe), but it was just awesome. It might have been due to the ballast, I mean S70T5Chris that was in the passenger seat though
