    Fair play mate... Makes sense tbh.

    Must admit, Rode the R1 to brands last td and stuck blade in bros van "just in case"

    Nice having a safety net ;)

    And it's only flash if the wet bike matches the dry! Lol

    I need to make my wet wheel fit my K5 - and new dust seals fitted to them.

    My ankle is still giving quite a bit of grief after my off at Oulton which has kind of dented my interest - know it was unlucky but still a pain (no pun intended)
