What footpegs are they and where are the fork top adjusters from?

Ponters is running Wilbers front and back mate.

Too bad that it messes with your ABS.

It did indeed shut off the ABS. More importantly to me, it lowered the front end too much reducing cornering clearance resulting in more dragging and reduced performance.

Fantastic job ponters look forward to seeing it at RDU 14

That's odd as it did not affect my clearance noticeably at all (i.e., no change in dragging parts) and it dramatically improved turn-in, tracking and the overall responsiveness and handling on my '07 Standard. I have the B'stone Exedra on the rear which raises the tail by 0.47", but that's pretty well negated by the 12" (1/2" under OEM height) Progressive shocks I use.

Different on a Roadster Phil, as the pegs/rails sit lower. I believe that's a big part of the problem.

I see, said the blind man...

Thanks!

Truly worlds apart from what it was. Handling, turn in, acceleration is completely transformed with the CF wheels. When I read the site saying it is amazing bang for buck improvement, they weren't lying.

The new position is a perfect blend of function when accelerating and comfortable with cruising.

Cost a couple bucks but its like falling in love with a new bike all over again.

Once I finish of the few little bits I'll send it over to Nev to make a few final tweaks then ride it every where

in the little bits you intend to finish , is there a solid custom made single block aluminium swingarm installation the one made somewhere in OZ you know the one I mean ,,, it belongs on your fabulous machine

Right on the money there Trevor, WD40 is only good for wet dizzies an rusty bolts Graphite whilst messy is the only thing to use on or in a lock done properly should last a good while, I would also put a tiny spot of it on the key entry so the key pushes it around inside

HOW bout using LOCK-EASE works great

This one.

HOW bout using LOCK-EASE works great

looks like a good product probably uses a solvent to get the Graphite in then the solvent evaperates leaving the the Grathite to do it's job. Haven't seen this product in shops here, have to keep my eye out for it
