Well...not quite free.

Basically i have a polybush and a koni kit to fit to my car between the
15-17th of this month, i could probably do it on my own...just, but it would go alot quicker and probably alot smoother if i had some helpfull brains and handslol
So i will supply the beer and the food and the parts, i am asking for someone or some people to come and join in the fun:thumbsup:

Come on, you know you want to, i know your out therelol

Any help is greatly appreciated

bike isnt too bad considering the speed i was doing, landed on shoulder and thought i had done the collarbone but just bruising. cant lift arm at mo and got tingling in hand but ok. managed to throw myself under the bike to stop a lot of the damage.

going into a 100mph corner, went for the brake to scrub 20mph off my speed and the master cylinder seal had blown and no brakes!

lucky i am the shape i am. i bounce......

thats where the bike landed.

the only damage to the bike is the fairing is fucked and it wasn't a standard fairing.....very rare fairing specially made to fit my bike. costs about 3 times as much as a normal one. could have been worse though

Even I have to admit there is something special about having a big throbbing motor between your legs and all the blood leaving your head - as you accelerate off at stupid rates that is...

tell him to bring that down and we'll fit it in the queue. this could be getting to a group sort out of all the little niggles we have with the cars.

It's a rear clam off job, so the car cant go anywhere. Need to take the seats out and everything. Total pig of a car to be honest!

I'll be at Ace's anyway Ki. I started taking bits off and before I knew it, the complete suspension was on the floor lol so got to put all mine back on too. Everything's taken apart and painted so mine's easier to throw back together....
