Hi Lee,

I hope you're as pleased with you new bike as I am with mine! After years of Japanese 4 cylinders Im a convert to all things twin Italian!!

You are certainly right in the white-wheel cleaning dept! Part of the price to pay I suppose! Doesn't help having a Scottoiler doing its upmost to make things worse!

Removal of the cat certainly makes a very positive difference to the sound, and also makes for a much free'r throttle response. Just a little concerned about the fuelling. I hope someone here may be able to advise.

Also just had to order from Spareshack a set of S.S. clutch springs. Found that originals started to show signs of rust soon after fitting open clutch cover. Not good having rusty bling!!

Also have fitted alternative clutch slave cylinder. Had to admit defeat in the limp-left-wrist dept around town! Beware of the low quality allen headed set screws. Couldnt believe it when I rounded off 2 out of three when removing! All replaced with good quality S.S. alternatives.

Cheers
