    new chains and sprockets for both the Hornet and R6 :D along with oil and filter to do a quick service.
    will be fun changing the sprockets without getting to much blood over the chains :eek:

    If you get the rims/spokes & want them put onto the same hubs & don't have anyone in mind...there's a nice old guy here that specialises in wheelbuilding in his garden shed. Does all Motoliner's spoked wheel work.

    Slipped on a Remus zorst to the 690 which it sound err...fruity. Sort of like an old Brit single til it gets wound up so spent a few hours on it today trying to stay clear of towns, cops & people in general.
