    I’m certain he said if you already have them then yes you can modify them :)

    Agree I have C+E (class 1). I reckon every road user should at least take a journey in a HGV and see the road from a truck drivers perspective, it would undoubtably be an eye opener for the vast majority.

    There is unfortunately a small number of HGV drivers that shouldn’t be allowed on the road. Most take there profession very seriously.

    Has anyone fitted ohlins FGRT 204 forks to an 08 blade?

    I also have BREMBO calliper’s and think I’m going to have to have them milled down 5mm anyone done this?

    I've not done it but did read about a set of ohlins forks needing the equivalent of the oem dowel/spacer thing taking off.

    Think Baron von grumble had this done on his? Might be worth looking back through older YouTube videos.

    I spoke to the guy who put 204 on his 08. Don't have any problems. This is the best kit (with 30mm NIX inside )you can buy for this money. Not to mill them - change your rotors to 330mm.

    I got this bike the end of last summer, and ths engine covers had damage from the previous owner, so as I was getting it ready for this year, I spotted a set on Ebay and decided to change mine.

    Forgot the after picture !!

    Also decided to order a few more titanium bolts, as the bike already has plenty, I thought I'd add a few more every so often

    Mill the callipers
    Mill the fork lowers.

    Problem I also have is I have fresh BREMBO disc not been bedded in yet and they are a little bit special. What was ohlins thinking

    Why would you go to the expense of buying titanium bolts and not spray the gravel rash?
