Thanks for the edit and many thanks for the compliment, im pleased with her she has only done 18000 miles and runs like a sewing machine with the standard exhausts on.

After having ridden her the upgrade to twin front brakes is a must, i have a zrx1200 and thought they were poor but in comparison they are fantastic.

Looking at the marking on your disc I would suggest you get that one working properly first
