How bloody cold out on my patio? (No room to move in the shed)

Anyway got the new (To me) Blue Spot caliper on the FZS 600, was easy enough, but as I was informed by a very helpful foccer there is a small amount of work to do to make it fit.
The Blue Spot needs a 2mm thick washer between the back of the caliper mounting, where the bolts pass through and the caliper hanger, this is to line up the caliper so it sits central over the disk, also a small amount of material needs to be removed from the front of the caliper hanger to allow it to lift up high enough to line up the front mounting bolt. (Dremel 4000 with diamond engraver did this in 15 seconds) see picture with pen pointing to that area.
The rest as they say was obvious, all done bleed and back into hibernation. That's me and the bike.

If anyone is interested I have a caliper hanger and torque/anchor rod for a FZS 1000 Gen 1 all in very good condition, also a set of pads for the same with lots of meat left on them, if your interested send me a PM (or is it IM in here?) see pics
