OK, back home again and ready to field questions properly. 
First, preferred dates for me would be Friday 26 Sep to Sunday 28 Sep inclusive. October is out completely, earlier in Sept might be possible but only if the proposed dates are a non-starter for everyone.
If anyone wants full 'chapter and verse' on the Ivanising options, drop me a line (mikegreatorexAThotmail.com) and I'll answer you directly.

Hi Mike,
welcome back matey! hope you had a good holiday.
I wouldnt mind the full info on it, so ill fire you back over an email now. Those dates will be fine for me personally, plenty of time for me to make sure im free for the day and to hide some money from the wifes clutches :lol.
il be wanting the full monty please,,no point in half measures 
Many Thanks
Davie
I'd be interested to know what other performance modifications could be done at the same time
Ais removal
If it's broken, it's not fixed.
Not sure that will enhance Nick, sure it will cut down a bit of weight, what about the degree advancer, and if the carbs are coming out there must be other stuff.

ok Davie, Ive updated the OP with that, thanks 8)
Another wee BUMP as well for anyone who may not have spotted this yet. Ive also updated the OP with the proposed dates
It won't improve performance, but it makes changing plugs or removing cam cover a lot easier. I have a 4 degree ignition advancer, which gives more midrange, but a fraction less outright power. Fitting the full monty with carb rubber/air box mods is as good as it gets unless you fit a full akrapovic system or similar (££££££££££££ :'( ) Fitting a full system also gets rid of the exup valve.
If it's broken, it's not fixed.
Back up we go. Come on you tight Scottish foccers. Best bit of money you can spend on a gen 1!
Just so people know, this is also open to anyone else in England/the borders who is willing to make the ride up to have it done (still unconfirmed wether it will be Edinburgh or Glasgow, but it's looking more like Glasgow at this point I think).
I could be interested in a full monty, but wouldnt be able to give a definite answer until closer to the time.

no worries Andrew, looks like there should still be spaces available nearer the time anyway. Still plenty of time to see how your fixed for it
another Friday evening bump. Still spaces remaining
I might be away the weekend its being done, if not I might be up for it. Is it really that worth it though....
I would say so. There are literally hundreds of guys on here who have had their bikes ivanised by Mike over the years, and I've never read even one person say it was not a worthwhile mod. That's good enough for me
bumpety bump.
any other more distant foccers interested in making a road trip in september for this? its open to everyone of course
I had my bike Full Monty'd by Mike mid May and have just been on a bike trip in France for a week. The bike was faultless with considerably more mid range grunt than standard and a stronger power delivery in the higher rev range. The fuelling is spot on and you can drop right down to low revs and it just pulls cleanly as you accelerate. I was interested to see what the mods would do to the MPG which averaged at 49 mpg before and 50.5 mpg after. See picture below. The lowest (48 mpg) was a fast motorway blast from Bournemouth to Folkestone. The other fills were French roads. I would thoroughly recommend having this work done. ![[Image: y9yqy3y4.jpg]](http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/06/02/y9yqy3y4.jpg)

thanks for the info Trip
Looks like its worth doing on every front then. nice!
First time I've seen extended fuel consumption records on a Full Monty'ed Gen 1 ... that's impressive. Thanks for posting.
Mike
No problem, very pleased with the results
Rich
Sunday morning bump for anyone who has not seen this. just one or two more to guarantee this takes place guys, must be someone else lurking in the shadows out there
