I don't want to go to work today...

Hopefully the first package arrives today of bits for my bike to bring it back to life - takes away ones motivation to work something fierce!

Have to agree with you 100% on that one Monster, however my wife has a different view on it - apparently I need to work that much harder to gain more brownie points before I'm allowed to work on the bike - ah, the joys of being married...

Having said that, she's been strangely quiet on the subject since I told her I've bought another FZR750 to build a 2nd race bike - could this be the calm before the storm, nah, she's much too nice for that...isn't she...gulp :sick:

2005 SV996R SOLD

Oh yeah, levers arrived yesterday from HK (Cheers for the Ebay link Spook) - I love getting stuff from HK, they were packaged in their own little cloth baggies, in a cardboard boxed covered with stamps, wrapped old-school with parcel twine!

Now to wait for the big Australian package 8-)

Ironic really... old school packaging containing state of the art billet cnc machined anodised levers. Thankfully the engineering department has progressed at a quicker rate than despatch!

The big box leaves today :thumbup:

It arrived this morning, snuck home from the office to play with the bits, am about to head back to work now :-)

After work I'm heading out to hopefully pickup some undamaged fairings/belly pan/etc - then it's time to refresh my front tyre...

Well, the fairings and bellypan that I sourced locally are a bit rough, but should come up ok with some TLC from the paint & panel guys.

Can't wait to get my forks back from the shop...
