+1 on all the favourable comments Dave, I 'specially like the pic of the R/H handlebar - Brembo, W.P., Trick throttle... drooool.
I'm looking forward to seeing you embarass all those new fangled ZX10 things in November on the 'old dunger' ZXR... Go the Mutant !!
:kuda:

Cheers guys - after today I've got to say I'm really happy with the mods - the bike feels heaps lighter than before, the handling is really sweet and I'm lapping EC at least a couple of seconds a lap faster which I'm pretty bloody happy with.

The most noticeable change has to be the brakes I reckon - I was pulling on the anchors at my normal braking marker for turn 2 - slowing from 160+ to 60 and finding I needed to get back on the gas to make it to the turn. I've taken a full 50m put of my braking marker and it's still not hard work :shock:

The suspension is also tops and well worth the money spent I believe. All in all I'm stoked :kuda:
