Ride... pimped!

[Mav]

Just got the HP back and got the chance to take it for a play yesterday - have to say, I'm very happy

New WP48 forks and bottom triple clamp, built for strength:

Tricky coating:

Rebound, damping and pre-load adjustable:

Plus a nice Renazco seat, Wilburs rear shock... and a tarts reg plate

How much for the bottom yoke Mav..
Looks good

 

[Fanum]

Tart's plate before ceramic coating those headers?

Our Tarquin would be apoplectic if he saw those

Ceramic is essentially clay... which is essentially mud... ergo they are ceramic coated

PS: the tarts plate was a present

It is indeed Kevin's handiwork - give him a call, the man is a master of the dark arts known as suspension tuning

How's yours doing? You still riding it much? There's talk of us going down to the Salisbury Plain if you fancy it

Hi Mav

Just putting an 18 incher on (oh er missus)

as I am off to Chris Evans Normandy on Sunday.

Yours bike seems to have no rear splash guard?
(And you have kept the passenger pegs for your beloved)

And what tyres are those, they seem to be 17s?

please mister.....

Thanks!!!

An 18" is the way to go - much wider selection of tyres compared to the 17".

By splash guard - do you mean the one that covers the rear shock? That's still there, although the 18 will take an inch or so off the bottom of it.

The tyre is a a T63 - seems quite similar to the Michelin Desert which doesn't seem to be available in 17" anymore. It's an okay tyre... near the TKC end of the spectrum of offroad tyres.

Hope that helps - I think you have my number if you have any other questions Have a great time with Chris
