Default Hello all

Hello there.
After many years of looking at my fireblade I can finally justify the money to get her back on the road. Failed MOT on race head bearings, sadly a job I couldn't do myself and then it was justifying the money to get it done. Now I have all the bits to get her road worthy again and hopefully it's getting sorted next month.
Aiming to get some small jobs done myself before it goes away, so hopefully find some answers on here.

A few of the 190 pictures showing some of the work done on getting my fireblade back on the road. The parts list grew as the project progressed.
I would also like to thank Black and Gold Motorcycles in Norfolk for all the help and dedication he gave in restoring this back to her former glory. Highly recommend him if anyone in Norfolk or Suffolk need any bike work done.

Previous year it failed on a noisy exhaust! Same Yoshi it came with and the passed the previous year.. of course I argued and the young lad was made to look rather stupid when his boss, who loved my blade, told him to pass it and stop being a plonker.
