    So today I changed over the wheels from the spare bike as they are near new sport demons and better brake disks.
    Also did some carb tuning and some air leak searching.

    Then bolted up the essentials and went for a ride to put air in the tires.
    It still doesn't quite enjoy idling but goes like stink. (The fastest its ever been and no stutters)
    I had to nurse it to the servo as it felt wobbly and awful, turns out i had 5psi in the front and 7psi in the rear.... a tad scary!

    As I pull in to the servo i see the fuzz pulling someone over from behind the wall next door...:crazypilot: here i am with pretty much zero fairings on LOL. I will get a pic of how I rode it tomorrow it's pretty funny.
    Aired up the tires and sneak past the police to their puzzled looks :dance2:

    The front still feels wobbly I will check the axle was done up tight enough if not that means the spare wheel is buckled :(

    I am hoping to have it fully together thru the week. @Revolver a trip down the 1/4 Might still be on the cards for it. @kiffsta CBR vs FZR vs ZXR. We have too!

    Think it would be kind to invite Mr Grey to come along with the Hyosung...........feel certain he'd be keen to give you guys a run for your money :lolsign:

    Hearing your tire pressures, would have been a scary ride.

    That looks to be an inside joke, but no. Its all bitumen.

    @Th3_Huntsman @kiffsta I'm up for it. You need a hand to ready it, send me a PM, we can tee up a time. If @GreyImport could be there, it would be good.

    Thanks Shannan, it shouldn't need help as it is but I will keep you in mind. I may need some help putting the second zxr together though. Keep you posted

    Well thats a little disheartening, Got home jacked it up again and figured out there is a monster buckle in the wheel :( Now i need to find someone to swap the tires for me then change the brake discs over. Then i will be down a front wheel for the spare bike. oh well unless it can be straightened properly on the cheap.... I know those 2 things never go hand in hand.
