Not bought a heater yet but as I’m an old skool tight bastard  :D so I thought I’d layer up and get a few hours in the garage again this afternoon 

Need to get the bearings out the cushion lever so left it on the rad in the kitchen for a few hours than heated it with my heat gun then started to use all my techniques to drive/pull the old bearings out. Took an hour and a half and all’s good ,just need to clean it up with some scotchbrite and get some new bearings.

Another job ticked offxD

New clutch lever and lh switch gear fitted, oiled all the cables that aren’t getting replaced.

Refitted the footrests with the proper bolts even managed to fix the dust cover on the ignition switch that was stuck open :)

Fitted a HRC style reservoir for now until I can sort something better and fitted the clipons
