Pity I don't know how to use their CNC lathe, otherwise it'd be mass production of bros frame sliders
    I know just the person for the CNC lathe
    That is quite tempting just to turn up....
    Bros frame sliders? Custom rear sets would look pretty wicked too...

    yeh from what i've heard the cnc lathe is a bit of a bastard, got write all the code text only, no spaces, but it does have a bar feader, so good as for large runs!

    but yeh, jut turn up if you want, will be doing mostly CAD stuff on monday...

    yeh, they come out from the front engine mount. Rear sets are the plan, but after the seat swap to make sure i put em in the right place, probly make some multi position jump plates up first anyway.

    hmmm, perhaps manawatu just needs more modders to join our show then? perhaps a single sided swingarm conversion for the connie? or maybe a stunting cage?

    I wish I could, I hope to be over at some stage next week on a job hunt and to chase up Massey and see if they are processing my application.
    I want to see these custom bits on a Bros... The only thing I don't miss about mine would be the brakes and shitty forks. I'm glad the CB is nicely set up. How has the USD front end been treating the beast?

    yeh flick me a text when you come in and can show you the mods, USD is pretty sweet, as are the fatbars and soft compound MX grips, still gotta get round to tweaking the clickers

    Will do bro. I'll probably add a few treats to the CB once I find employment in Palmy. I'll most likely buy something a bit sportier for the weekends though, it feels like VFR time to me.

    Was it that tribute band to the Beegees? I've heard they are rather good.

    Did you take your white disco suit?

    Nah sounded good concert,a few songs the brothers Gibb did were great,sad they're not around now.

    Mind you have been told we should head to Neil Diamond,may seem naff but his 70's was not bad,fark am getting old.
