MBD do some nice ones. I have MBD and NK racing ones and not had a problem with either, if that helps?

This is fantastic Dusty. It makes me think even i could strip and engine.
All you need to do now is run out colour copies and get them bound and sell them, i'm sure people would buy them.

Steer well clear of the 'wicked' heads, they look lovely, but i know i am not the only one who has had problems with them and as Dusty said, there is no refund!
I went back to using a standard head and have had no problems. My engine is tuned, 66rwhp, but no work has been done to the head.

Hi Nick, you’ve done a fantastic job on this bike mate! Seems a real shame to sell it before you get the chance to use it! Good luck wth the sale. +1 Mouse

I quite agree on the tank issue. I know Dusty was talking to Norbo about this very issue at Stafford and the cost of making 31k tanks outstrips the guessed at demand. Norbo did say that if another tank was done it would be for the F/N2's as there are far more of those about. No help to us with 31k's!!
Makes me think that 31k's, N's and F's are perhaps the rarest of all LC's, maybe?

MBD is not selling those fairings anymore, i tried to buy one a year ago. Try ebay, 'billydafish' sells them at £150 or Norbo has them, i think

I like that very much! Is that the bike 'Dusty' sold to 'Littlebloke' on here? If so, what is it like to ride? Mouse hi mouse yes it is , I am planning on a run out tomorrow so I will know more then , but before it went up to Dave it was as flat as a witches tit and didn't really pull until it got to 10000rpm and it wouldn't idle either it was that bad I did 7 miles on it in about 10 weeks , but it idles lovely and starts first kick now and looking forward to having a run mart Interesting! Well i am sure Dave has sorted it for you, he knows his stuff. I had a 'tuned' 4LO that did nothing until 8000rpm then took off, but totally useless on the road! Mouse

I don't think you will find anything listed for an RD, to old!
For what it is worth, i use 'Pazzo' levers on my hybrids, but i bought GSXR600 K1,2 or 3 clutch and brake perch's as Pazzo list levers for those. The perch's are plentiful, pretty cheap and very similar to RGV. I personally would not trust a brake lever made in China, but i know people do and have no problems, but it is your choice

Hi '17 again'
the 'bracket' is part of the rearsets, it is made to accept the rear master cylinder.
The rearsets are made by NK Racing

After my 'off' last year, i have been meaning to replace my leather jacket and trousers, as both were cut off me whilst lying in the road.
Anyway finally decided to buy some Furygan 'Raptor' gear and decided on Helmet City in Tatsfield, as i got a really good deal from them on my lid and some really good service. It was the first time i had used them and decided to give them my business as they impressed me, if i get good service i will use that shop/dealer again, it's not rocket science.
So, Saturday morning off i go, prepared to part with my hard earned. On arrival the guy i dealt with before is on his day off, not such a problem as i believe that this place trains all it's staff, so i get this young lad instead. The shop is empty except for me and one other guy, I explain exactly what i want and this young lad gives me a pair of the trousers to try first. As i come out of the changing room, he has moved on to a 'new' customer buying a helmet, i hover about feeling a bit on a plank in these too big leather trousers complete with tags and try to get his attention to see if they had another size to try, but he just completely ignores me. So i thought, i'll do this myself and get a different size to try, which i do, all the while no staff ask if they can help and the original guy carries on serving the other customer. Then i thought, i'll try the jacket, i find one that fits, but then i'm thinking sod this! I am prepared to spend about £700 and not one of the three staff can be bothered to serve me, not good enough!
So, i just walked out, i was so furious i didn't bother telling them why i was leaving, no one even asked anyway!
Needless to say i ended up at Infinity motorcycles and have bought some Alpinestars gear, it actually is a better fit and very similar price, even haggled and got a bit of money off. I don't buy that much bike gear but even so i expect some level of service, after all i am paying for this gear, it's not free!
So, just a bit of a rant, but i am just really sick of utterly c**p service in this country, what is wrong with these people, is decent service too much to expect?
Maybe i should contact Helmet City and explain, but part of me feels 'if they cannot see how their staff perform at a basic level, why should i bother telling them', they can reflect on it when they go bust!
