Wait until you're racing your bike on a hot day Kev, it won't be running 60° with a VJ22 radiator.

Mark Jordan kindly gave me some rearsets about 3 years ago, which until recently had been kicking around in a parts box not doing much.
They were a bit agricultural and too long, but with a few modifications and a bit of cleaning, have turned out like this.

Been working on the radiator mounts today, just need to add the rubber anti vibration inserts into the holes.

Also made a bracket to neatly hold the catch bottle to the side of the radiator.

No it's all blanked off Tricia. I'll be using an EWP on this. I need the cylinder head though to get the hoses right.

Thanks Bernie. It's still a bit scabby in places, but will all be ready in time for the September show. Once I get the exhausts done, I can check belly pan clearance and then the bodywork can be sent off to the paint shop.
