Get it delivered, ta anyways :wink:

Not a lot going on - still awaiting the stem to fit the ZZR1100 front end :evil: But I did get hold of a nice B12 front end to play with whilst I wait :wink:

I've shimmed the valves now (Thanx Jerry - swapsies on there way back to you) and put the engine back in the frame to finish off the lower rear engine mounts.....

....and check the chain alighment... :??

I think I'll need a chat with TALON when I collect the off-set sprox order!

Here's some close-ups of the Harrison rear caliper & the neat fitting to save having to fit a torque arm....

And heres another mock-up of the rolling chassis - Note the 4:1 ain't so nicely placed now the bulky JMC has replaced the s/s 916 s/arm :roll:

Thats all for now folks - gotta get me party frock ready for tonights "shin-dig" :P

Looking good Piggy, though I'm not keen on the front mudguard - too modern :shock:

Agree 100% Ralphy - it's just a temporary Bandit 12 front end for getting stuff aligned - not sure what I'll be using yet :wink:
