I was dreading putting the top of the fairing on the bike, because I really thought the extra width of the forks would make life a misery when fitting the fairing. Well good news is that it lines up pretty well, and the clipons don't hit the fairing on either lock. I still need to sort out a way of putting stop locks on the bottom yoke to stop the forks and avoid any damage if it falls over.
I also received some overflow bottles from one of the guys on the French RG500 forum - nice guy lives in Valence, and sent me loads for free!
The brakes have been bled but I had to move the master cylinder banjos around so I need to blead them again.
I ordered a left hand thread rose joint to complete my gear lever rearset, and they sent me a RH threaded one...doh! They will send another one for free!
My Michelin Tyres have not been sent yet apparently Michelin haven't yet made the medium fronts, so I have gone for a soft front and medium rear and hopefully these will arrive during my holiday next week.
That's it for now.
