Well I finally got a chance to get the new caliper bolts today, got 2 spares so 6 in total for $16.85.

Happy with that. 8)

Update......

I think it's finished :kuda:

Glen at All Fixed did me a turn and I picked up a set of Race Tech 1kg front springs from Shock Treatment ($170) and had them delivered to him, I had my car in for a service, so he did the spring and oil change for me.
Got the forks back in and wound everything up to max.
Then today after a heavy night round MadKaws painting and talking shit, we set the suspension on the front and pulled out the rear 10 shock and added more compression to the spring and refitted it. All set and I'm sure it is now not far off perfect.

Overall on the run back home, FANTASTIC :D

Will give it a test on the Sunday run tomorrow.

The MadKaw race bike came up a treat again ready for the next meeting, pics here.......

Yep, we got Damo's z suspension setup working a treat. A little fine tuning may be required after a ride but with the new front and rear bits there is now plenty of scope for adjustment.

and my zx10r race bike came up a treat after attempt No. 2 of painting on Saturday. The cold hard, sober, light of saturday morning made us rethink Friday nights effort.. :oops: Thanks Damo, top job..

Nice work mate, glad to see it all finished.

I think the red forks really set off the white paintwork - now all you need is some 1000R stickers ;)
