    Dry fitted the M4s, hopefully Arthur will shortly be making some dowels for me :) Removed the old hugger, had to get a bit brutal on it as the allen bolt was stuck despite several days of WD40, and ironically once it was off and I could get the mole grips around the bugger it come off easily. Carried on cleaning the years of old oil and crud off the rear bits. Measured up a bit of metal to make a bracket for the CRF450 rear m/c but still not sure it I am going to have it on the bike, only time will tell once I have the bracket made.

    Can you supply details as to which cam and monitor you are using. I'm interested in doing this mod myself. Thanks

    Id wait for me to test ride it before you start going through all the head scratching I've been through with it dude !
    Just to give you the heads up too, the camera kits weren't actually destined to be on a bike that they sell. They are normal car ones that you can buy off ebay much cheaper, they have just marketed them as a Bike rear camera kit !

    Fitted the GB racing covers I bought from BladeRR8.

    Managed to get them on without removing the side fairings again after just putting them back on once the ABS was removed.

    Just a good polish and wax and it's ready for possibly it's last season on road.

    Started spraying up a bracket I am making for the CRF M/C. Still may not fit it though as will also have to modify the OEM rearset so I can fit the clevis to it as the clevis is 6mm and the rearset is 7.6mm.

    Got the front sprocket cover off to carry on with the chain cleaning task I seem to be doing to relax. Not sure it needed it, but hey as I had the cover off I thought I would give it a little spruce up ;)
