I thought you were hanging shit with that title
But obviously you have realised the value of experience over PRICE and the illusion that if you
pay through the nose you get good quality

nah there is a nice little slot in the left side of the ZXR 250c lower fairing that always had me wondering what it was for.......now thanks to a day in afore mentioned garage and one minor carb set back when chucking it back together........i now Know with that long phillips head sucker you can reach the front 3 carby clamp screws without ripping left lower fairing off..and the one rear easily with the 600MM
as for hanging shit nah....as said lesson in mechanics that i had got on saturday has demistified something i'd always baulked at trying.....................
