You're well stuck in now Rod. Is it growing or just a short list?

Ah it's short enough Will
The next BIG one is the fork stanchions
but the tricky one has been the master cylinder.
Had to 'bite the bullet' on that one and get a replacement ;-(
it's not so much doing the actual replacement
but rather the amount of bits that have to be taken off !

Still as someone said to me a couple of years ago, its a great way
to get familiar with the machine.

So ,
Radiator fan motor replaced and radiator re-filled.

Removed bars earlier and ran a cable up them to allow me to retrieve heated grip cable.
But first I will replace master cylinder plunger /seal thingy and outer cover.

Working on the 4 heated grip connector's as i had to cut them out of their plastic housing.
Will refit in the new housing and just need to solder them and seal.

Then hopefully replace the lot and fire her up.
