Welcome dude. I was in Wallingford today. -
It's a 54 plate SV1000S unfortunately in Bronze, or cack as I like to call it. 24k miles, just though it might be interesting to see what it fetches. If there's no reserve I might even take a punt -
Wow, er, wow, never been further north than Stratford? You're missing a treat-good roads, friendly people, and you're never really that far from anywhere. -
There's an SV1000S at the auctions in a couple of weeks so I reckon I'll take a look. Couple of Blackbirds too but not so bothered really. Any weak points to look for on the SV?

I'm out of this one. The wife's making thinly veiled threats to my (meagre)masculinity if I don't start wallpapering the hall -
Oil, tyres, renthals.

It's at times like this I'm glad I've got an electric oven........ -
You don't get rid of me that easily! Let's see where this ride takes us then. -
bent forks?

Matt, have you tried fitting the forks in the opposite side? I know you couldn't run it that way, but if you put the left in the right & vice versa, one of two things will happen. If the yoke's goosed, the same leg will appear bent. If it's the fork, the bent one will appear on the other side. Or if you simply turn the fork leg 180 degrees in the yoke a bent fork will "point" the opposite way. Just a thought.
