That's one nice looking beast you have there, sorry to hear about your Ohlins leaking but you must have been expecting it!!

Thank God I've got Showa's. LOL

I almost got out on mine today that was until the kids decided they wanted to go to the local park on roller skates. That swallowed up 3 hours in no time, oh well I suppose there's always tomorrow.

PS. Is it as clean as it looks, almost looks brand new?

That is very very clean mate, quick tip here, don't fill the oil tank to full, keep the oil level between half and two thirds maximum, how to check, get the engine nice and hot and stand on level ground, hold revs at 4k rpm and check level.

If you have to much in it finishes blowing back into the airbox, even more so if you wheelie it:thumbup

Very nice - don't forget there's a GSX-R seal for those Os which is apparently double lipped and stops them leaking.

Believe it or not its "dirty" as in hasn't been washed, the wheels are boggin!! It is very clean I hope i've picked a goodun no one will see it if its parked in the garage!!

When I checked the oil it was turned off having been run for 20 mins, I put the oil in with it held level. Will check the oil again holding at 4k revs.

Funny you mentioned the seals, the Ohlins specialist in N Ireland reckons the Suzuki seals is a pile of balls :dunno. Now on reading here its obviously not but he's a very well respected bloke who looks after 90% of racers here. He says they will fit but are dearer and Ohlins have now uprated their seals which has done away with the weakness.

The Ohlins dude will do Ohlins seals etc with forks in bike for £170 a Suzuki garage here with an Aprilia mechanic will do the GSXR seals fitted with forks in bike for £100, but he's never heard of putting GSXR seals in but agrees they will fit.

Soooooo feckin confusing!!!!!!!!!!! :dowhat

I got the RSR2 lid with black visor from D&D motorcycles in Bangor, N Ireland for £300 all in bargain!!!!!
