The bike has sold but Julian didnt want the 21 inch front wheel so... 21 inch front wheel to which I fitted the EBC brake disk needed to fit the X caliper, so you can change the wheel easily without changing calipers. The wheel does not have a tyre fitted. £200 OVNO to include carriage in UK. Lloyd.

However, it has bugged me over the years and I have gradually replaced all the emissions kit to try and clear the fault. I at last got around to learn how to use the on-board diagnostics (...

If you have altered your gearing from standard then it is likely your speedo readings are now inaccurate. I changed to 13/48 sprockets and my speedo was reading 60mph compared to the "true" GPS reading of 50mph i.e well out! I have the 12oclockLabs SpeedoDRDs in stock so grabbed one and fit...
