    You still won't have your bike fixed by Anzac day..? Geez man.. speed it up!

    Err, can't think of any other way for you to come but taking Pocketcracker up on his offer to pillion somebody. I'm sure he's begging for some company.

    Washers dimensions:
    Diameter of inside hole = 2006 20cent coin (no shit.)
    Total diameter of washer = 13.5cm
    Thickness it needs to be: 2006 10cent coin (again, how convenient!)

    Is it do-able?
    Ground down? Too much gravel drags eh?
    and what has the world some to when we are measuring shit in coin widths and diameters?
    13.5cm is much bigger than i had anticipated, doubt we'll have anything lying around to make it outof. Sorry dude! try a bolt's n bits store, they may have something that'll do the trick.

    HELL YEAH!

    you'd be up to leading the ride mate, especially if it's Ginny's!

    I was hoping for something a little less costly on the wallet, but I wouldn't be upset it we couldn't find anything else...

    How about the just remove the original front end and swap it for a GSXR's? USD forks, clip on handle bars and twin discs should make a bit of a difference. Plus then the front end will be lower so you could put a screen on and get a more aerodynamic shape.
