how did she do that!? Glad she will be ok!

Nope. No one wanted it but means I get to keep it

definately and thanks

picture update:

im sure there will be some piss take out of my black and pink primered zxr lol!

small update: Managed to get rear fairing on today. Havnt put calipers on yet due to loosing a copper washer that goes on the banjo bolt. Only managed to get one this evening. Only thing to do is put rest of the fairing on and put front calipers on.... will do at the weekend as im going on placement tommorow. Dont know about insuring it yet as im abit skint... well alot skint lol

Everything appears to be normal and no the handlebar isn't bent. The cable runs as smooth as possible without any tight bends so I realy reeaaaly dont know think I might have to take it to a garage

Yeh I think so but as soon as you put it on without screwing on it still stops it returning

Did that too dab. Problem is definitely in the housing as when I had the cover off it snapped back but when its on it doesn't.... but nothings caught. Its realy strange

Another update today: Got the rear caliper on the bike and bled up. Didn't take long still got the fronts to do.... dont know why we didn't do them lol.... Got the replacement radiator mounts on.... what a f**cking faff!! Oh had dropped it and broke the other one so think it put the radiation abit out of shape. Not by much but enough to be a pain. Anyway much tantrums later they're on. Found out one of the engine mounting bolts that also hold the radiator mount on is stripped but we can't get to it or get it off so dont know what to do about it.... Then I tried to get the throttle to return back to "off" by itself. Which is a requirement of an norm but could we hell! Lubricated both cables which helped abit. Then took the throttle housing (bit on handlebar) off to have a look and it was all abit stiff so lubricated that but it still wont return on its on and is very stiff to pull back. If you hold the throttle housing a certain way it will snap back but can't get it to in its normal position : So thats it for today... hopefully tommorow we will put the front callipers on and all thats left is the fairing

Small update: My friend who was painting the bike for me had a bad bike accident and wont be able to paint my bike probaly till winter. So ive got the panels back which have been rubbed down and some in primer. Im not going to bother trying to paint it as ive never done it before and just want it on the road! Over the past few days me and the oh have been doing a few things to it. 1. He very kindly whilst I was at work finished rebuilding the front calipers and we got the painted today, they will be going on the bike tommorow and getting bled! 2. Got the mirrors painted as they were a wierd red colour and although everythings in primer nearenough I still thought they looked stupid so they got the matt black treatment. They went back on the front fairing along with the screen. 3. Got it fired up!!! I thought the battery would be dead but NOPE! it was as strong as the day I left it 6 months ago! That was a shocker as usually things dont go that well for me! He started after about 5 mins of fiddling with the choke. Sounds abit rough but I didnt expect it to be smooth after sitting there for 6 months, he also definately has the typical kawasaki clutch rattle!!! hope it dies down abit when ive manage to take him for a good blast! I was soo pleased when he fired up! and rubbed it in oh face as my little old rough zxr was much easier to start than his diversion hes getting ready to sell Only things left to do are to get the fairings put back on, put calipers on and bleed them and RIDE IT!!! oh have to insure it first lol!

Donnie you cant get any smaller and cheaper than this... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2012-Gelert-S ... 2a1c937093 I have one that i use for wild camping and its brill. But it's small, but your probally used to bigger tents so it'll feel small.

wow im soo skint this month that I cannot afford to pay my rent... and because im trying to save to pay my rent it means i cant afford to buy shopping...... suppose its part of the student experience huh? F*CK IT...

Id reccomend nikwax. Wouldn't use tent proofer.. not many of them are breathable

A sick bag... who was that for?

wont be able to make it this year. In florida!

Cannot reccomend the Gelert Solo enough. I have one, cost £25 including p&p brand new, you'd think for that price it would be crap but it realy isn't! I've used it camping plenty and recently 1000m up in the snow on aonach mor and its been brill! Tight inside if your anything over 6' but theres enough room under it for your gear too, i can get my 80l bergan under the canopy of it. The poles are abit flimsey but so long as your careful pitching it you should be fine. I can't wait to start using mine at rallies!!!!

Ill be bringing a one man tent so no roomm for anyones else

yeh ill patch weld it and then wrap it (as the weld wont be pretty and the pipes are rusty anyway). Best get the bf to show me how to weld i like learning new things

hmmm might weld it then if its not all rust lmao, then cover it with wrap.

but the exhaust wrap will hold it in place?

Cheers the wrap is cheap on egay (i know you get what you pay for regarding quality) but it realy is a quick fix till i can afford some new headers

I should be there depending on work and funds! BIKE WILL BE ON THE ROAD!!!
