Johnny,

It has been at Keep Biking since at least August last year, but don't fret I have had a couple of bikes from there with no issue. I just think that our bike is for a niche market and then those wanting a RM or BCR are very picky (as you might expect when parting with hard earned cash). I looked at your bike in October but couldn't justify an additional 2k on the R11 I eventually brought.
So enjoy your new beauty and Tony is a good guy and he's been there for years.

Nice!
I always prefer the CF rocker casings on the RMBCR.

Has the forkbrace been polished?
I see what look to be replacement bolts on the calipers - if they say A2 (or A anything for that matter) on the heads, be sure and use some silver* anti-seize paste on the threads.

Now all you have to do is out there and ride it..

:)

*And by 'silver' I mean Aluminium (Aloooooominum) Anti-Sieze Paste. It'll stop any 'Galling' when doing up or un-doing the threads that happen with Stainless Steel bolts...

I was always under the impression that A2/4 stainless is not a suitable material for caliper/rotor bolts.
