Winter bling alert.

[Taff]

Well,

Cut to the chase real quick.

Had some work done on the rocket, so when I get off my lazy *** and find a photo hosting web site, I will post up some pictures.

Here is a list of some of the work thus far:

Rear swing arm, lower suspension links powder coated in a deep pewter (silver) color.

Front and rear wheels same as above.

New Ohlins front forks, rear suspension.

Galfer wave rotors front and rear.

Steel braided brake lines.

Smoke colored windshield.

Flush mount indicators (Greggs).

Complete exhaust system ceramic black coated.

Machined billet aluminium clutch and brake covers.

Rear master cylinder (G-Craft) now behind rearset.

New bar end weights with RR logo.

Rear sub frame removed to grind/remove original lugs holding rear brake OEM master cylinder.

New DID chain and both sprockets (chain etc all gold).

Rear hugger, chain guard, lower fairings now painted silver, similar to the lighter color around the tank area.

New SATO TYPE 2 black colored rearsets which have separate lever/foot rests...way cool.

Motion pro fork/rear frame sliders.

New alarm and battery tender lead fitted.

2 New PR2's to replace OEM Corsa.

Gonna need some overtime to pay for this extra bling bling work :yahoo:

Hey peeps,

Thanks for the information.

I picked up the "rocket" last week, already put over 900 miles this week on the bike because of the "shake down". Had to check the torque on all of the major components (rear swing arm was off bike etc) brake rotors etc.

Boy, those Galfer rotors sure do stop the bike, only squeezed the brake and Mr. Rocket was good to go for a one wheel front stop (I use both brakes on the rocket BTW) :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Had to adjust the front and rear pre-load a click or two as well as the rebound (front and rear).

I will set up the photo hosting site ASAP so as to get some drooling photos on this forum.

The dealer has requested that I loan them the bike for their "open day" event this coming week, wonder what I should ask in return, ruthless aren't I :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Even go
