Yeah, fully geared this one, using the Z3 BAM's i bought for the FSR, going to cut the disc tabs off and paint them gold though, also running Canti's so need to get a hanger welded to the fork brace.

:shock: is it worth it? I'd just go for new forks no? I reckon orange bombers are made for zaskies.

Well i've got them there so may as well use them, the canti hanger wont cost anything to get welded (and i've made it already), have orange Bomber Z1's on the LTS, going for an earlier look with the Zaskar hence cutting the disc tabs off the forks (the redundant tabs would bother me anyway) and painting them gold (like MAG 21's)

In pursuit of the 'Ride through the winter, not be a fat shy-t in Spring' project I set out on the newly mudguard-equipped road bike, noting that the air temperature was 4C and there was slush on my car windscreen.

However after about a mile my lugs were ready to snap off, and I turned and fled back home trying to outrun the heavy shower that was coming from Mordor, given the blackness of the sky.

Currently managing about 15 miles/week :-(

Not looking good for the Lands End - Kirkwall next Easter plan.

Cheers
Lard boy

You went out and spun the legs fair play, it's the start and what do they say About small steps .....

Slush!! It was cold but not that cold. Do a coast to coast if the end to end seems to much like hard work.
