Couple of jobs done. Bled the brakes surprisingly easy. Rear was the easiest I've experienced. Cracked the bleed nipple and the fluid ran straight through without touching anything. Also drilled the bottom yoke 😰 for the horn bracket. And a very quick service from Bob the Seat as this just turned up Steve

Beautiful looking bike. The two things that stick out which i like are the handle bar riser's and the silencers on the exhausts.

I have a stubby set of carbon silencers I was going to fit (if I ever get round to recomissioning it) but the ones on it are very sturdy with the banding About the only set that didn't go wobbly Steve

Yes that is a problem with carbon silencers

Hi Steve trying to find the right length clutch cable for my 421, the one you have used looks like the one I need. Any chance of the yam part number please.
Thanks Mark.

You might be on the lc dark side but you soon snaffled up that ypvs top end and that was after I left the seat locks off berti because I knew you’d want them The lc coming along nicely now though,,,,I’m not bitter

Its your fault anyway, you sold me the rear frame section If I didn't have anything to bolt them to I wouldn't have needed them 🤣🤣🤣 Steve

Part number here Its an n1 ypvs cable If you search on eBay Franco's Yamaha has a few at a very reasonable price, I bought a spare just in case as the pattern cable have no Teflon liner on the inner so are heavy Steve

Both bloody broke
