    if you want to insulate get some hi density foam and sandwich betwween middle layers.polystyrene will melt unless painted with silverfrost. hd foam the way to go.

    So Yong popped over tonight and we had a good look at his bike, we compared the VIN number gainst my rego papers from my old bike and its not the same bike. But I have to say this one has come ahead in leaps and bounds since it arrived.

    Tonight we fitted a new battery, new screen , flushed the rear brake fluid as the old stuff was like puss. We also gave her a good clean up and polish. I recon he is onto a winner. Im thinking an oil chnage and its ready for RWC and Rego.
