hahaha gravel is not a friend of a bikes rear wheel, if your back end was slipping out like it was, and mine had slipped any further, id never get the chance to thrash my car alongside yours at next years nationals!!!

working on finding a place to live first, then il be straight back into it :highfive:

Hi Luke,
Biff the manifold gasket.
Use high temperature rtv (silicon ) on the exhaust and Locktite Master Gasket on the inlet.
When you apply these run the edge of your finger arond the inner and outer edges to take any excess off as when you bolt it up it will squash out and you dont want a residue spilling into your ports in particular.
This works a treat and I have used this sealing system for years.
Cheers
Dave

yea very happy with the colour ;) . just gotta sort the lowering of the front i guess....and the back get reset plus extra leaf added for rigidy. when i know of someone who will do it.

ute will need it eventually too so to make it easier to load the....distractions.... on the back. and handling plus looks is a win too.
