    It should be done by next weekend, my mechanic who used to work at V+M and helped build Dave Jeffries TT winner is doing a bit of tuning work on it early next week and then I will do some photos.

    He is trying to get it featured in one of the magazines. He wants to put it up against a 12 model and see how it compares.

    The idea of the bike is it will look standardish but then people will start to notice the bits and bobs that have been done to it.

    I am going to save a little while longer then I would like to fit an Arata long exhaust system and eventually a PFM brake set up but thats two and a half grandaway!!

    Sounds very nice Benn,

    The K5/6 do have massive amounts of go in them, i still say that my old one had a stronger engine than the blade has
