Progress report & New PERRINI Leathers

Hi all. The Fz is coming along fine. Prepping the wiring to race spec, removing all unneccesary components; wheels and some fairing is painted in Marlboro colours; waiting for side fairing and seats; Had it running the other night with semi-prepped wiring to check all systems are go, and it sounded great. WP rear race shock feels very good since coming back from being fitted with a remote reservoir, allowing compression adjustment; new wheel bearings are going in; fork OD has been machined to allow dropping the bike down if desired to improve geometry, though we will see what it does on track first.

Got a new pair of leathers recently; PERRINI form the US. They feel great and are custom made for me. Contact me and I will let you know where to get them from. They are very good value, coming under $500.

Vanessa at Hourglass Photography is very excited - as so am I - seeing we're setting up a shop at Carey Bay, near Toronto! More later.

Organising signage for Pirtek and Hourglass for the leathers and the bike. Should be all GO soon!
