I bit the bullet and ordered new tyres as I just couldn't bring myself to re-fit the old Avons as they are around 7 years old. I chose Bridgestone BT45's partly because of availability and also I used to run BT92's on my old RGV250 and they were amazing tyres. I used my local bike shop again the Bike Shed in Waterlooville as they helped me out with tyre removal and recycling, give them a go!
Next up was to just fit everything that was left over. A special mention to the fairing being a faff, but it looks like the fairing mounts had bent, so long term I would like another look at these to get the best possible fit.
So the bike is together and it looks brilliant - you will have to wait until the Stafford show for the full reveal (unless you are on the FB page), but there are a couple of jobs that need sorting before it can go back on the road.
*Front wheel bearings need replacing
*New fuel hose.
*Re-fit some of the over flow hoses
*New battery
