Finally managed to log in- thanks Brian! I bought my bike about 3 weeks ago, in ignorance and a hurry, but I've had some great rides in the hills here in France already- first thing I learned is that the bike is a lot braver than me!
Now trying to put the bike back to more stock condition- I hadn't realised how much it had been modded- and climbing the steep learning curve of rediscovering bike maintenance after too many years..Brian thanks for the tips on bleeding the front break- I'll give it another crack today!
Looking forward to learning more about these great bikes- and how to ride them!
