New Angel ST rear tyre fitted and wheel balanced, the old fashioned way, today.

I made the mistake of being sparing with the tyre lube on assembly, in an attempt to be confident in the tyre bead to wheel rim cohesion. Had to break the fucker down again, and add less friction, when 100psi wouldn't seat the tyre properly.

It's a mistake I won't be making again.

Put the rear back together and finished off with a full set of EBC sintered pads, as the organic rears were just dead and l felt like giving these a go.

Gave the rear caliper pistons a bit of spit & polish. I'd 'serviced' the fronts only a few months ago, so I'm happy to report that all 14 pistons are moving beautifully by hand today. No corrosion, leaks or fouling to be seen.

Bought myself new Alpinestars waterproof boots and Richa gloves this evening as well, but my wife wants to give me the money for those so she's covered for my 40th which is in a couple of weeks.

Oops.

Wrong year/thread!

there isnt a 2019 thread yet....

I kicked the rear tyre, realised it still has a slow puncture so went out in the car to the local bike run and took photos instead...

Replaced the stock exhaust with Black Widow front pipes and a Yosh muffler...they seem ok. Bike feels like it has a bit more top end power, the front pipes are substantially lighter than the stock system and they look better. I already had a Holeshot stage 2 jet kit installed.
