Over the last 2 weeks I have been tormented with colour choice as I see that the "purple" is so very hard to match, either powder or regular paint. I see Brian has put a lot of research & work into this (and many othe...

When I was out today on the TTR it didn't feel right on turn in ( 80-100kph on dirt roads ) so when I got home I checked the swing arm for movement, seems ok, grabbed the forks & they seemed ok as well.
