Don't think I have one anymore ... it went with the 996.

Might have a carbon V-piece though ...

well the calipers are done front and rear, i'm not 100% happy, but they are pretty decent. Swingarm, engine and radiator/oil cooler are all pretty much as good as they so it's almost complete.

Exhausts will be ok, and the rest of the bike is pretty much sweet.

Will get the pads fitted back in tomorrow and if i get a chance get the wheels fitted back on there. Once that's done i'll be happy.

LOL you've had it for 2 years without cleaning it

it's almost done now to be honest. Wheels are going back on at lunchtime. Then it's off to Nellys in a week or so

Well work is still on-going now i've got the bike back.

Everything went nice and smoothly, althoguh i did notice how chipped the wheels are. Will get some touch up paint and see if i can get them acceptable... otherwise... i'm asking the boss for more overtime LOL
