    looking for someone who can, if i take the fairings off, weld a patch repair on the VF Collector box. both vf's have some form of leak on the collector and carb issues that stem from being stood a long while.

    Cheers. I will start getting them off while the weather is on our side. Will need to get the back wheel off to reach the rear cylinder Exhaust.

    just got my broadband and computer back , so can write a proper reply ,

    Been stuck with this as I cant bend much at the moment so while I might be able to get the fairing off I couldnt get the rear wheel out to get access to the rear bolts. hopefully i can get some help.....
