 Not new around here, been browsing the forums on and off since I purchased my 05 ZX10R race bike a couple of years ago. Unfortunately I broke my C1cervical vertabrae in a big off at Brno last year, survived death/paralysis by literally millimetres. This was 10 months ago and I have decided to part my bike out to try and re-coup some of my losses. I'll get another bike when I feel ready but this year and possibly next are likely to be bike-less.
 I've listed certain things on ebay but would rather sell bits to like minded souls through forums. If anybody needs anything drop me a bell.

 /intro done

What the fuck is with the 'guess the letters' thing in private messages ?? It's barely possible to make them out ! 

[michael4012]

sorry to be reading what happened to you but hopefully itll wont be long before your back.

[Kirklet]

Sure I will mate, been riding for nearly 30 years on the roads and a good 15 years of track riding. Just rang my bell good and proper this time, just need to wait till I'm fully healed and strong again.

Welcome! Think I messaged you on eBay last night about your micron system?!

[Kirklet]

Ah right, think I replied to you this morning ! I've been uber busy at work all week, don't know whether I'm coming or going ! Off to Centre parcs tomorrow 

Did you get a wheel spindle sorted?

[Matt83]

I ended up paying £40 for one, wouldn't mind another as a spare with my wets on wheels though

[Kirklet]

 Ah crappola, I'd have let you have mine for £20, I had no idea that's how much people are asking for them !!
 I've got a shed full of stuff I need to move on, if only so I can tidy it out. I've still got a blue-printed engine that snapped a valve off, the frame/swing-arm/yokes etc with V5 and all manner of other things.
 I also have a pair of wheels which both have a slight bend in the rim. I'm in two mind whether to get them straightened and then sell them on or just sell them as is with the discs/carriers and captive spacers and see what I can get for them. They both had gravel wedged between the tyre and rim, I'm not sure if this was enough to distort them?

[Matt83]

I'll have your spindle and captive spacers to go with my wets?

Wheels only tend to go for £300 a pair these days so might not be worth straightening unless you can get it done cheap enough?

[Kirklet]

Ok mate, I'm not back home until tomorrow afternoon, I'm away at Centre Parcs squirrel watching.

Welcome mate  Glad you survived your crash
