+1....great job.  And Uncle Terry likes it...wow!

He's only being nice in case he might need to fly me over to file a few bits off his RC51 Stev-o, although I'd be worried about all that plastic clogging up the files.  ;D

Seriously men, thanks for your feedback, let's see how far I get before the next banana skin moment  ;D

Hey don't twist my words Steve, I didn't say I like the bike, just Martin's filing skills, he's obviously got way more patience than I have! Cheers, Terry. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Martin sent me this message back in March  to let me know he's still alive, and that he'd sold the bike. I hope he comes back soon, he's a good bloke.

"Hello mate. ok so four months late in replying but hope you can let me off with that.

'Life' got in the way, needed a break, nuff said.

Tribsa gone, received a good offer and bit the blokes hand off, replaced with a 2011 Street Triple (newer version of a pommie sh1tbox).

Hope to be checking in more regularly from now, belated happy birthday you old fukca  ;D

 I enjoyed his dogged determination and workarounds on all of the problems. It left a much better bike than it was when he got it. Hope all is well.
