After a little altercation with the tar, and given my state of health leaves a lot to be desired, I though it good time to strip and fix up the 10.

With a lot of help from Damo we got the fairings sorted and gave it a few licks of paint.
While that was happening I stripped the bike down and had Laurie Alderton run his eye over it and he found a few little twists and bends that he corrected. Nothing serious, but its nice to know things are straight.
I tidied up a few bits and generally stuffed around with things over the last couple of months.
The clutch still has a niggling problem that I am working on and will be testing out this Saturday. Other than that its all ready to go..
Unfortunately I'm not and I'm looking at having an op on both my shoulders (at least the right anyway) for torn rotator cuffs. ATM its looking like being at the end of the year, early next year. Hoping for early next year to get Xmas track day in ( I'll just have to take it easy... ..)

Big thanks to Damo, Robracer, Pete, Glen at allfixed, Frank and anyone else who lent a hand..

looking good mate. Shame about the health but that has to be fixed or you will pay dearly for it later on....

Schweet! Well done boss!

Like the extra white pinstripe. Looks good

I was looking all over it, ooing and aaring at how neat it looked. The glossy paint, lack of oil or grease on the swingarm and sprockets, neat graphics and then.................I see the side stand!

Looking great Dave...well done to you and all involved

Now time to take care of yourself

Yep, sorry about that. It does stuff the pics up doesn't it.
I always put it back on after the racing as its easier to move around, but yes, I should have put it up for the pics..

good work Dave, looks great

I saw the title and thought you might have re-acquired the ZXR-M1

Can't afford to buy that back after what I sold it for..

and after seeing at at the last pcra meeting I don't think I'd want it..

Well done mate. Looks ready to go again. Like the red number boards

I should have enough paint left for yours and Watties if ya like. Had to get a special colour made in flat as no one makes any..
Got em to make it up in a spray can, it goes on really well...

It does need to prep'd well to stay on though...

Now you just gotta win baby

Very nice Dave, the Colour scheme and graphics keep getting better.

Looks tops Dave. I wouldn't worry about the clutch though, way over-rated!
