Well chuffed. Full details in wheels, tyres and brakes forum.

First the old



Then the new (maybe some computer guru could do a "morphing" movie from one to the other :-) )

Cool

Yeah, don't they just look cr@p

They look like those fake plastic things you get from Demon Tweeks to stop brake dust building up on your alloys

Following Blowdogs near fatal accident with the banana skin, is that you trying desperately to avoid those wet leaves ??

Oh, and get yourself some mudgaurds m8

Neil you monkey. Can't you go back to Holland or something? Anyway, it was SM1 that made me realise I needed new brakes after doing the "rollercoaster" - at the crossroads after that, where you stop and look for traffic, I couldn't bloody stop as the brakes were gone - I just kept rolling!

Amsterdam - no go mate.

Back in the smoke on Bishopsgate and it only took 3 weeks to get the contract. 6 months so the P1 stays for a while longer.

As I said SM2 is formulating in my grey stuff. Found some nice roads the other day and I am thinking more of a treasure hunt type do.

Will contact you in a while.

BTW am moving shortly as well ( hopefully - 2 houses have fallen through already ).

Cool

look just like mine!!

calipers are fitted with spacers to accomodate the wider disc. New brackets move the caliper away from the hub to accomodate the wider diameter. It takes a while to do but its worth the trouble.
