    Would be great if you could share what it's all costing you - initial purchase, all the bits and pieces, etc. Of course you're not paying for the workshop hours, which would probably more than double the overall cost but it'd still be interesting I think.

    It’s so much nicer when a bike is taken out of decommission and given a new lease of life. When Bob fired her up she sounded ready for the off already! Unfortunately we cannot experience the smell of the workshop and the first whiff of the exhaust fumes which all adds to the excitement!

    Thanks for these videos Michael. I’ve been on my travels. Just back from weekend at Le Mans MotoGP. The speed and skills on show are amazing. Particularly their braking which has to be seen to be believed. Got me thinking, how quick could I lap on one of the GP bikes and how quick could any of the MotoGP riders lap on my old SV650. You soon realise that it’s the rider not the bike that is the key factor in riding fast. Love to hear your thoughts on rider skills versus bike bling for quicker lap times. Is there a sweet spot? Cheers.

      The company JMP makes them in a variety of colours, and you can find them a couple of places on the web. Normally you need the 11,3mm version and make sure it's with cone shaped seal. The ones with just an external o-ring tend to leak.

      Make sure that radiator guard doesn't gather small stones and wear through your radiator. It recently happened on my GSXR1000R. I've heard it happen to a couple of others too. I take mine off to inspect every couple thousand ks now.

The country roads I ride are in really bad condition. The local council has a tar spraying machine that adds tiny sharp gravel shards and they never sweep the roads.

I'm looking at the mt09 (can't stand the looks really), another street triple in 765, the 890 duke, or maybe something spicy like a tuono. You always recommend the bikes in looking at, but in your dream garage you have a tuono. I'll be predominantly on tight mountain roads in north Georgia. I do plan to do some track days too.

Sorry to be a geek but another question (if you don't have the answer, maybe your mate Bob has). I'm running a Brembo RCS 19 master cylinder with the standard calipers. I'm going the 2 line route and was wondering whether the double banjo on the right caliper is the correct size/pitch (M10x1.0 Pitch) for use on the master cylinder? If so, that'd be fantastic as it'd be a simple swop, only new copper washers would be needed 🙂
