I think this worked, it is blocked by work IT.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Not everyone understands what a completely rational process this maintenance of a motorcycle is. They think it's some kind of a knack or some kind of affinity for machines in operation. They are right, but the knack is almost purely a process of reason.

Been quite some time since update, lots of things going on, so havent been able to work on the bike so much.

Cleaned out and bled front brakes, new hoses. New clutch hose. Ordered a new rear brake m/s, the old one was crap. Got a new caliper aswell from a GTS1000 -93, straight bolt on.

Seat pan is starting to get in shape. Have to come up with a mount for it, the tank to. Going to cut the old subframe for that, we´ll see how it turns out  :good2:
