May I just give a big shout out to Mr comphysofa for giving up his time on Sunday to help me out with sorting my zed with me,we got a lot more done than I thought we would,my bike isn't back together yet as I'm still waiting on my gillies rearsets to turn up........ And I broke a piece on the rear master cylinder,but it can be fixed,and the people at bike touque racing are nice enough to send me a replacement part,free of charge,may I say a big thank you to them for that,that's why I ordered my wheels from you,as you would were the most helpful when I was phoning around for info on wheels.... Bike is getting there just a waiting game now,but again comphysofa your a legend,and someone I'm glad to call a friend,I feel we have hit it off the first time we met up,thank you very much for the help,I would be so lost without your help,cheers mate...... I appreciate it!!!!

Big up to the Comfy. I may as well not have a bike on the road at the moment too,Lee. June has rained it's balls off,it's been 10 days since I even had a short run. I bet you are busting to try out the wheels,etc.

Yep,I can except that the wheels will be,but I'm wating on the rearsets and it's wearing thin as I ordered them in march. I was told when I asked that I can expect them end of June, beginning of July,but there coming from Germany they told me,so I guess the problem is with that end not calsport. But I'm paying £390 and thunder road and other places,have quoted me £500ish so I'll just have to suck it up......

Yep I I'll try to post some,sorry about my missing pegs,but its getting there very slowly... My wheels should be hear soon,as they said 12 weeks becouse Oz racing had to make them for my bike,as a special order,so had to pay upfront before they ordered them....

Yo Lee.
I've used both Michelin Power 5 and currently running Road 6.
The Power 5s are a great,predictable tyre,but don't last very long,mine were done around 2k,maybe stretch to 3k if I nursed them.
The Road 6s are a brilliant tyre. More than enough grip in all conditions,amazing in the wet. I'll be buying them again. I've 3k on them and the rear looks good for maybe 5 or 6k in total. Highly recommended.

I bet you are busting to try out the wheels,etc. Ah = no bother....messing with bikes is not a chore...its fun!...although it was interesting getting home from your house the other day on my RSV4 with a strip plate and a full akra system, dodging coppers all the way to the bridge.....funny whenever im in Wales and on my way home i feel like im "running for the boarder" a la Dukes of Hazzard.... Looking forward to coming over next and getting the tyres on the new wheels and the wheels on the bike!!!

I'll be interested to read that. I've tried changing pads on the rear caliper,but it's hard to get any feel or bite with the thing.

Yes I thoroughly appreciate everything that comphysofa has helped me with,and I hope he knows that,gutted on the tyre chose maybe I should have asked on hear before I pulled the pin on buying them...... Live and learn, rearsets are lush,but I'm getting nothing from my quick shifter,it's reading something. Its the hm ss plus I'll try settings again,but it not changing gears,don't think there's nowt wrong with it,it's just play around...
