Bit of vibration and clunkiness round the n/s footrest, will have to
check the adjustment and lubrication of the (new) chain.

And the brakes don't work. I suspect looking at the MOT and service
history it's not seen much action in the last 18 months and needs
freeing off.

On the R1, the chain box says 20-25mm deflection, i think thats way too
tight personally.

35mm with you sitting on it would be more realistic. I run my CBR600
with 50mm of slack on track

narrower ones the cables would have been too long and it would have
cost a fortune to have new ones made in shorter lengths
