So I started spending a lot of hard earned on parts. This is all being done ready for one last stage to be added bit later to make use of all that I did.



















Sent the heads off to a lovely company called CTM, used them in the past always been impressed with their work so seemed rude not to use them once again.

Pathetic little chain. But needs to be off to make way for a Monkfish magic cam. Also after seeing the standard chain guide it made me nervous. So opted for the later Vxr8 example.





May also notice the anti roll bar, worth the agro.... Cam!





See the difference in the guides





All back in/on








Heads are back... Shiny

Whilst I was waiting on the heads me and the boy, set about tidying a few visual things, rocker covers, coil mounting plates, w/p, chain cover, disc bells, and heat wrapping the exhausts. And also some cosmetic wrapping by my mate Tony.

That's it for now, just waiting on my new roller rockers the in the new tax year the manifold will be off again and replaced with something a bit trick along with a mapping session.
