Yes, she is usually a street bike and setup much differently, but last week I decided to have a ‘clean-up’ and thought I’d see how many of my parts bin were actually usable. This build-up is the result. I’m not sure how long she’ll stay like this, no doubt she’ll be back in street guise sometime soon. And yes - this is her usual place in the loungeroom.
