Changed my engine mounts this week. Thought my engine was shaking about a bit more than it should be. Turns out one of them was knackered. It's running much smoother now though.

Also fitted a winch :guns:

Nice thread, Nice build. Has give me even more ideas now. Bloody hell.

Would be good to catch up with some of you guys in Bristol once I have finished building. Do you go out on the lanes much? I know when my Suzuki was on the road (nearly 10 years ago now) there were loads of amazing lanes around here. Its been a while and I know a few have been smoothed out or blocked off.

A lot of the good ones are gone now mate. Still can enjoy a Sunday out laning but not as good as it was unfortunately.
