They look the same as my discs, which i got from Sandy Bike Spares a few years ago.
But i looked recently on Ebay and it seems like they don't sell the front ones any more, although they still sell the rear one oddly enough.

At Brands, clean for the first time this year. R6 shock, forks with cartridge emus and Wilbers springs being the most major mods + many more.

Since the pic, have a new radiator grill on, cleaned up and resprayed the downpipes in manifold exhaust paint (black). Keep pondering on whether to put red tape around the wheels, not sure if it's tacky, but the pics with them on here look good!.


Also need to get a new end can!

I reckon no tape, i think Doddsies wheels look much better without.


The tape looks ok but i reckon it looks shit when it gets dirt on it & it doesn't clean off properly.


Although Doddsie must have an anti static coating on his bike that stops dirt.


Even Chuck Norris cant clean a bike like Doddsie. :)

When Chuck Norris was asked if his bike was as clean as Doddsie's he replied, "erm, no"  :o

Thanks Doddsie,


I can't make up my mind, so will stick with no tape around the wheel.


Chuck Norris doesn't sleep.......he waits.
Doddsie doesn't sleep.......he cleans....and polishes

Here´s mine.
Traded it in for a Honda Concerto last month.
Had two worn tyres, replaced them with new BT 21 and I'm quite please with it.
Just got a bit of TLC to get it looking sharp.

Ever bought the same bike twice, I just have! Sold it last year to pay a vets bill, got back from hols Monday did a quick search for bikes local to me and there she was, the bloke I sold it to was selling because he only did 500 miles in a year and spent nearly as much time as me polishing it, so despite not having enough money did a bit of financial jebuggery and it's now mine again, this time to stay...

All the mods were paid for by me, I think I'm still paying off the credit card bill for them!, plus a black baglux tank cover not shown in the pic  :)  Also he had just put 12 months MOT and 6 Months tax on the bike ready for sale, so apart from an oil change due in May, nothing to spend, paid him £100 less than he paid me last year but he was happy to sell it to me knowing it would be cherished, wasn't the cheapest fazer but at £1500 with a known history and 16k miles, 2001 model I was very happy with the deal....and the sun is shining so happy days.
