new fork seals, antidive internal orings (screwd one had to rebuy
) . new rear tyre metzeler roadtec Z6, refit towbar, adjust rear shocky, refit nep throttle lock with minor adjustments of heated grip wires and new headlight bulbs. waited 4-5 days for new shims, purchase bulbs, cut tabs to get ready to fit. will not seat properly
try again by fileing tabs

. when the rebuild way back when id purchased a new headlight unit! guess what! standard H4 configoration so ive had cool whites since then as i now remember replaceing then at that time. Owell new improved globes now anyway but with 2 tabs cutof (I think I recall tipsy has done that successfully I hope). new front brake pads as old ones contaminated by blown fork seal oil
