Got me some gold valves and currect tension fork springs and a corrrect tension spring for the second hand Ohlins I already have at the rear. OMG I never thought my bike could handle this well, 55 posted corners on Terry's "test track" taken at twice that with more to spare no problem. It's still nearly a 10 year old chassis so it's not as quick to steer as a new 6 but it's at least three quarters of the way there from what my bike was like.
