Tried to pm him, but apparently he has disabled pm's?

Call the shop and ask ... ?

He disabled PM's because he was constantly bombarded with bike questions by people.

Take Tubbs advice and also take full advantage of letting them tune it to suit on their dyno. It should be a sweet runner, he is a very clever chap.

Met with Tubbs today and what a nice guy he is :)

Very down to earth and no BS.
Sorted the options for the exhaust mod and managed to briefly discuss my next project for the CR. ;)

Anyone used vinyl wraps instead of paint ???

Mike.

Avalaugh that carbon effect vinyl looks pretty good.

Did you do it yourself or use a specialist? (Like I will).

I done all the small parts and the frame, got the air box, front fairing and tail unit done by a pro, it's actually really hard to find someone who will do it and not charge silly amounts. Let me know how you get on.
