    I'd very much doubt that you, Frag, Bonners, Champ or any other road
    rider would notice a 4mm profile difference in a road tyre while they
    were riding. You might notice the difference in turn in, but not the
    ride height difference.

    I ride way too fast to worry about cholestorol.

    ginge banged the rocks together and they said :
    Yep, the C2 used a 180, E1 a 190 because it looked fatter. I know Bear
    changed his back to a 180 and said it made the bike better, so I did,
    and it did.
    Where does it stop?

  6. Remember to check the head race bearings. I discovered mine where pitted
    on one of the Sedan runs. I was f*cking horrible on turn in to bends. I
    never thought it would have made such a difference.

    eric the brave banged the rocks together and they said :
    Its just been given an MOT (yes, I know it can mean sod all from the
    wrong place), so in theory they should be fine. I will check em :)


    I do know that I need to sort out the throttle cables now.

    I've fitted risers and as per instructions I've re-routed the cables
    between the tank and frame.

    On full right lock the cables are pulled almost tight, and sometimes
    one catches beneath the ignition lock and is pulled more than tight and
    the revs blip - not good.

    A temporary fix is just a cable tie, but I think the cables are
    moving/bending too much due to lack of length which'll cause more wear
    and make them snap soon.

    Anyone know where I can get new throttle cables made up to suit? Need
    to be approx 1.5" longer than standard.

    You don't need to shim the rear, it's got ride height adjustment.

    Isn't it ride height adjustment by adding shims to the top suspension
    mount, like the 10R?
