Repsol Rep Paint job done by C.A.H. Racereps of Brompton-on-swale,

seat unit paint by Arnie at Pro Kustom paints.

i have got hold of an MV F4 rear brake hanger plate, am hoping that it will be a direct replacement for the 1098R one i have fitted at the moment.
if it is, i will be able to re fit my MV 4 pot rear caliper to the 1098 hub, which will get the rear brake back to how i like it.
the left hand engine hanger plate that i made a new one of, is in for powder coating along with all the bits from my GS.
will be removing the engine, giving it a refresh and re paint once the GS is finished and back on the road.

Cheers Tony, still waiting for my shoot with the GS, Clink asked for my contact details, but hasnt got back to me again since.
was a laugh doing the shoot with the CB though, kept getting people walking past with me posing around the bike, Clink in all sorts of
weird positions getting his shots. 

Dont tell ken the issue number, he'll be getting all gimpy whilst ogling your posing

well as expected the MV hanger wont be a direct swap!! it will fit the hub but is for a smaller disc and isnt off set enough for the 1098 fitment,
not a big problem though, I recon i can make a bracket that will get it sorted, or i can get the VFR hanger machined to fit, either way i can get the 4 pot Nissin re fitted, will just take a bit more work than i was planning on.
