Damn. Dark kitkat is a win . As for coil mounts, are you in need of an original mounting bracket? I can nab one from one of my parked nc29, which may fit the frame posiibly,or you can just drill and tap a couple of threads in the frame on the 23 dead easy,, the coils should mount it sweet as they are all the same I imagine.. Just throw it back when you get another sometime . 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firebeast Posted June 12, 2021 Report Share Posted June 12, 2021 No worries James, I can get it there for Tuesday so it's up to you. I haven't been through your various threads, so whenever you get it fired, if you want it and or the airbox, to save time, i can post them next day if it gets the bike on the line on time 😉 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meticulous about the stuff that matters - safe stuff, not at all fussy about 104db termis. The crucial thing for me is marrying up the blade loom with the 675 headlights and a dozen other fiddly yet essential things when i've effectively got just tonight to get it sorted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
