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

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

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

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...
